I have never been a huge fan of plain pizza. I am however a huge fan of what I like to call “fancy” pizzas. Can you tell how non-fancy I am that I think pizza with anything other than cheese on it is fancy? Remember this pizza I shared with you a while ago or maybe even this one? Mmmm so good. We had friends over last week and I wanted to make 2 different kinds of pizza. I made the nectarine pizza and then I wanted to make a pizza that had honey on it. I had a pizza in Austin one time that had honey on it and it was the best thing ever. I decided to make a pizza with caramelized onions, fresh parmesan, gorgonzola and honey. I made it again for dinner yesterday and this time I also added strawberries because well, I felt like it. It’s delicious either way!
Ingredients:
Whole Wheat Pizza Crust (I use Bobeli)
1 Onion, sliced
Olive oil
Butter (optional)
Salt
Sugar (optional)
Fresh Parmesan Cheese
Gorgonzola
Honey
Strawberries (optional)
Directions:
1. Heat a little bit of oil and/or butter in a pan. When hot, add the onion to the pan and stir to coat onions. Reduce heat to medium and let onions cook on stove with out burning for about 10 mins. Stirring occasionally. You can add a little bit of sugar to help with the caramelization if you want. Cook for about 10 more minutes.
2. Once onions are cooked spread out evenly over pizza crust. Let cool just a bit. Then cover with parmesan and gorgonzola.
3. Drizzle with honey
4. Top with strawberries if you want.
5. Cook at 450 for about 10 mins.
That looks amazing + oh so fancy!

Ooh, I love pizzas! How is this all you eat for dinner though? I’d be starved!
Great timing–making pizza tonight and about to head to the store! 🙂
I think I want to try something with honey too!! (Wouldn’t have thought of that! :))
Aloha!
I really loved that nectarine pizza you shared before (its probably my favourite pizza ever, though I like to add a little proscuittio to mine) so I’ll definately be trying this too. Thanks for sharing!
Hooray for fancy pizza! I love how you add in fruit – yum!
