Directions

Unroll dough and press evenly into an oiled 14-inch pizza pan (or 10-by 15 inch pan). Bake on bottom rack in a 425 degree oven until crust is well browned, about 8 minutes. Cut enough prosciutto into ¼-inch strips to make ¼ cup; set remainder aside. Mix ricotta and peel; drop in 1 tablespoon portions over crust. Arrange nectarines, grapes, and prosciutto strips on crust. Combine sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over pizza. Bake until fruit is hot to touch, about 5 minutes longer. Accompany with remaining prosciutto. Cut into wedges.

COMMENTS: A ready-to-cook refrigerated pizza crust, the base for the breakfast pastry, makes morning baking a snap. In addition to the fruit pastry, offer more fresh grapes and nectarines for munching.
