Caramelized Onion Pizzas Recipes

SIMPLE CARAMELIZED ONION WHITE PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 550 degrees F, with pizza stone set on middle rack while the oven preheats.
• Toss or roll the dough into a flat, round shape, approximately 10-inches in diameter.
• Spread the mozzarella and 1 tablespoon of the parmesan or romano cheese over the center of the pizza dough, leaving uncovered a ring of approximately 1-inch around the edge.
• Add the caramelized onions, spreading them over the cheese. Sprinkle the remaining tablespoon of parmesan or romano cheese.
• Slide the pizza onto the stone in the oven, either directly or using a pizza tray/cookie sheet. Bake for approximately 8 minutes until the crust is browning and the center bubbles. If you notice that bubbles develop on the ring of crust without cheese and onions, you should press them down or puncture them with a fork or knife. This keeps them from burning before the pizza is fully baked.
• Once you remove the pizza from the oven, slice it into wedges for serving.

Steps:

• Put the onions, olive oil, and sugar into a skillet over medium heat and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are wilted and brown, about 15 to 20 minutes. Reduce the heat if the onions are browning too quickly. Set aside to cool a bit.
• Heat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Spread half the tomato sauce onto 1 of the crusts. Top with half the caramelized onions and half the mozzarella. Repeat with the other crust. Bake the pies until the mozzarella is browned and bubbling, about 10 to 15 minutes. As soon as the pies come out of the oven, sprinkle over the gorgonzola. Slice and serve.

CARAMELISED ONION & GOAT'S CHEESE PIZZA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Tip the flour into a mixer with a dough hook, or a bowl. Add the yeast, salt, oil and just under 100ml warm water then mix to a soft dough. Knead in the food mixer for about 5 mins, but if making this by hand, tip onto a work surface and knead for about 10 mins. The dough is sticky, but try not to add too much extra flour. Leave in the bowl and cover with a tea towel while you make the topping. There is no need to let the dough prove for a specific time - just let it sit while you get on with the next step.
• Tip the onions into a non-stick wok and add the oil, 4 tbsp water and balsamic vinegar. Cover with a saucepan lid that sits inside the pan to help the onions soften, then cook for 15 mins, stirring about 3 times and replacing the lid quickly so as not to lose too much moisture. After the time is up, the onions should be golden and all the liquid gone. Tip onto a plate. Add the spinach and garlic to the pan and stir-fry until the spinach has wilted.
• Take the dough from the bowl and cut in half with an oiled knife, then press each piece into a 25-15 cm oval on a large greased baking sheet with oiled hands. Don't knead the dough first otherwise it will be too elastic and it will keep shrinking back.
• Spread with the spinach followed by the onions, then dot with the cheese and scatter with the olives, thyme and sunflower seeds. Bake for 15 mins until golden and the base is cooked through.

• Add the balsamic vinegar and cook a few more minutes, then remove from heat.
• Preheat the grill to low-medium heat (or preheat your oven to 400 degrees).
• Spread the caramelized onions evenly over the pizza crust.
• Top the onions with the chopped peppers, crumbled goat cheese, shredded provolone, and chicken.
• Cook for 10-15 minutes, making sure the crust does not burn.
• Remove from the grill or oven and let set 5 minutes before slicing.

PIZZA WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND CRISPY BACON

Steps:

• Place a pizza stone on the middle rack of the oven and preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
• In a medium size saute pan, add olive oil and heat over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the bacon and cook until the bacon is very crispy and all of the fat is rendered. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Remove all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat from the pan and discard. Place the pan over high heat. Add the onions to the hot bacon fat and cook until the onions are well browned, about 8 to 10 minutes, stirring often. Remove to a paper towel lined plate.
• In a small bowl, combine the mascarpone and farmer's cheeses. Season with nutmeg and black pepper. Reserve.
• On a lightly floured surface, stretch or roll the dough as thinly as possible, about 14 to 15-inch circle. Evenly spread the mascarpone mixture over the dough. Sprinkle with the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses, bacon, thyme, and sauteed onion. Bake until the pizza crust is nicely browned, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Remove pizza from the oven, transfer to a cutting board, cut into slices and serve immediately.
• In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast and honey in 1/4 cup warm water.
• In a food processor, combine the flour and the salt. Add the oil, the yeast mixture, and the remaining 3/4 cup of water and process until the mixture forms a ball. (The pizza dough can also be made in a mixer fitted with a dough hook. Mix on low speed until the mixture comes cleanly away from the sides of the bowl and starts to climb up the dough hook).
• Turn the dough out onto a clean work surface and knead by hand 2 or 3 minutes longer. The dough should be smooth and firm. Cover the dough with a clean, damp towel and let it rise in a cool spot for about 2 hours. (When ready, the dough will stretch as it is lightly pulled).
• Divide the dough into 4 balls, about 6 ounces each. Work each ball by pulling down the sides and tucking under the bottom of the ball. Repeat 4 or 5 times. Then on a smooth, unfloured surface, roll the ball under the palm of your hand until the top of the dough is smooth and firm, about 1 minute. Cover the dough with a damp towel and let rest 1 hour. At this point, the balls can be wrapped in plastic and refrigerated for up to 2 days.
