We had a luncheon at our office this week and I supplied a fabulous pizza - YUM YUM (if I do say so myself!) Especially good for those of you who have outgrown the traditional pizza combos! We ate mine far too quickly to capture it on film so this is a reasonable facsimile :0) I melted my cheese more and the onions weren't so caramelized but other than that - Yum!
[I doubled this recipe but kept the blue cheese at only 8 oz and it was more than enough so feel free to cut it in half. The doubled amount made 2 cookie sheets of pizza that I cut in triangles]
(if you don't love blue cheese as I do, goat cheese is gorgeous with it too!)
Ingredients
6 tablespoons olive oil
2 1/2 pounds yellow onions, halved and thinly sliced
1 large sweet apple, peeled and cut into thin wedges
Coarse salt
All-purpose flour
3/4 pound store-bought or homemade pizza dough (I make mine in my bread machine)
8 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
1/3 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
Instructions
In a large skillet, heat 4 tablespoons of the oil over low heat. Add the onions, cover the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally until the onions are tender, about 25 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking, stirring frequently until the onions are golden brown, about 20 minutes more. Stir in the apple, season with salt and cook until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes longer.
Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. On a lightly floured work surface, roll the dough out to a 14-inch round. Transfer the dough to a large baking sheet and brush the top with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Scatter the caramelized onion-apple mixture over the top, leaving a 1-inch border all around. Scatter the cheese and nuts on top. Bake on the lowest rack in the oven until the crust is crisp and the cheese has melted, 12 to 15 minutes.
Enjoy !
