Ingredients
– 1 pound vegan pizza dough
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
– 2 ripe pears, cored and thinly sliced
– 1/2 cup vegan mozzarella shreds
– 1/4 cup balsamic glaze
– 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
– 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 475°F and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat for 30 minutes.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat for 2 minutes until shimmering.
3. Add sliced onions and cook for 25-30 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes, until deep golden brown and sweetly fragrant.
4. Tip: Don’t rush the onions—low and slow cooking develops their natural sugars for maximum flavor.
5. Roll pizza dough on a floured surface into a 12-inch circle, then brush with remaining olive oil.
6. Spread caramelized onions evenly over dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
7. Arrange pear slices in a single layer over the onions, slightly overlapping them.
8. Sprinkle vegan mozzarella shreds evenly across the pizza surface.
9. Tip: For extra crispiness, place pizza directly on the preheated stone using a pizza peel.
10. Bake for 12-15 minutes until crust is golden and cheese is melted with light browning.
11. Remove from oven and drizzle balsamic glaze in zigzag patterns across the hot pizza.
12. Immediately sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves and sea salt while still warm.
13. Tip: Let pizza rest for 3 minutes before slicing to allow toppings to set properly.
This beauty delivers the perfect textural contrast between the crisp crust, tender pears, and silky caramelized onions. The sweet pear plays wonderfully against the savory onions while the balsamic adds a tangy punch that ties everything together. Try serving it with a simple arugula salad dressed in lemon juice for a complete meal that feels fancy but comes together surprisingly easily.
