Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (approximately 12-inch size) Pizza dough
- 3 large Yellow onions
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cups Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Cornmeal
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat as well.
Peel and slice the onions into thin strips. Mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes until they are deeply caramelized. Add the minced garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper to the onions, and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
Sprinkle a clean surface or pizza peel with cornmeal. Roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle and place it on top of the cornmeal to prevent sticking.
Spread the caramelized onions evenly over the pizza dough, leaving about 1/2 inch around the edges for the crust.
Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the onions, followed by the Parmesan cheese.
Transfer the pizza carefully onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm and enjoy!
