Once they
have risen for second time, sprinkle counter with flour and roll or
stretch doughs out into pizza shape...the thinner the better.
Place on pizza pan or cookie sheet that has been sprayed with
olive oil or dusted with cornmeal. Rub
both doughs with a Tbs. of olive oil.
Sprinkle with Parmesan and dot with goat cheese.
Cover cheeses with peach slices.
Season with salt, then drape with prosciutto slices.
Bake until dough is crispy. Remove

Season with salt; toss and mound on top of pizzas.
Slice and serve as an appetizer or lunch.
