I think most will agree when I say pizza is great and so are peaches from Palisade, Colorado, right? But what about those peaches on pizza?
At least four Denver-area restaurants think that if pineapple is an acceptable pizza topping than Palisade peaches are too.
Here’s where to try it…
Cart-Driver
They were the first to put peaches on a pie about ten years ago. “The Peachza” is made with brie and topped with Palisade peaches, drizzled with honey, spiced up with Calabrian chili and horseradish. It’s also got a little crunch from the oven-crisped basil and red onion. You can upgrade the pie with prosciutto for an extra $6.
Pizzeria Leopold
“A Peach Ain’t One” is made with garlic sauce, mozzarella, gorgonzola dolce, candied bacon, Palisade peaches, a peach and cherry pepper relish, and Altius Farms basil.
Blue Pan Pizza
The “Life’s a Peach” pizza is the August pizza of the month at the Detroit-style pizza joint. It’s made with the peaches, ricotta and goat cheese, candied walnuts, fresh basil, a pinch of flaky Maldon salt and drizzle of balsamic glaze.
Joy Hill
The “Just Peachy Pizza” features soppressata from local purveyor Il Porcellino, fresh Palisade peaches, a Calabrian chili cream sauce, mozzarella, ricotta, hot honey, basil, mint and green onion.
