Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Lightly sprinkle a large baking sheet with cornmeal.
In a bowl, combine the butter with the garlic, basil, oregano, fennel, lemon zest, red pepper flakes, and a few cracks of black pepper.
Divide the pizza dough in half. Push, press, shove, obliterate, etc. one half into a circle about 10 inches in diameter. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Poke holes all the way around the center of the crust. Brush lightly with olive oil. Bake 5-6 minutes until lightly golden.
Spread half of the garlic butter over the parbaked crust. Sprinkle with half of the cheeses, then half of the sliced peach. Drizzle with honey. Bake for 8-10 minutes until the cheese is melty and the crust golden and crisp. Repeat with the second slab of dough and the remaining ingredients.
Douse with a fuckload of fresh basil. Slice and serve hot.
