A fall pizza with prosciutto, arugula and apples on a board.

😋 Why this recipe works

This pizza is topped with apple slices, prosciutto, sharp cheddar, arugula, and a delicious balsamic glaze. I got the idea of this pizza combo after browsing through Joanna Gains’ Magnolia Table Cookbook.  It was an appetizer recipe that included prosciutto wrapped around a sliced apple, sharp cheddar, and arugula and then topped with a balsamic glaze.  What a brilliant appetizer recipe, right? I thought so…

📔 What is Balsamic Glaze?

Balsamic glaze is also called a “balsamic reduction,” which is made from balsamic vinegar. To make it, balsamic vinegar is simmered in a saucepan until it has reduced down and thickened to a “syrupy” consistency. Additional sweeteners like honey, pure maple syrup, or regular table sugar can be added. Our go-to sweetener to add to the balsamic glaze is pure maple syrup. We love this glaze even on our Savory Strawberry Pizza.

Yields 8 slices
Ingredients
Maple Balsamic Glaze
  • ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
Instructions
  • Place a pizza stone in the oven and preheat the oven to 550 degrees or as high as it can get. You want your oven as hot as possible. 
  • Prepare pizza dough.  If your dough was in the fridge, bring the dough to room temperature about 2 hours before rolling it out. If your dough is ready, flour the surface and flour a rolling pin to roll the dough from the center to the edges until the circle is about half an inch thick.  Once fully rolled out, place parchment paper on your pizza peel, gently pick up the dough, and lay it on top. 
  • In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic, olive oil, and salt and pepper. 
  • Using a silicone pastry brush, gently add the garlic olive oil mixture on top of the pizza dough.
  • Assemble the pizza by adding prosciutto, apple slices, and white cheddar cheese on top.
  • Gently slide pizza onto the pizza stone and bake for about 12-15 minutes or until cheese is melted and crust is golden brown. 
  • Meanwhile, make the Balsamic Glaze by adding 1/4 cup of balsamic vinegar and 2 tablespoons of maple syrup to a saucepan. Bring sauce to a boil and reduce to a simmer, constantly whisking for about 10 minutes. The sauce should reduce in half and should start to thicken up.  Once reduce in half, remove from heat and let it sit to cool for about 5 minutes.
  • Remove the pizza from the oven and add arugula ontop. It will wilt in about a minute. Drizzle the glaze over on top.
  • Cut into slices and serve immediately.
