Ingredients
  

For the Base
  • 1 package Fresh Pizza Dough Opt for gluten-free dough for a gluten-free version.
  • 1 cup Canned Pumpkin Puree Avoid pumpkin pie filling for flavor.
For the Topping
  • 1 cup Freshly Grated Gouda Cheese Replace with mozzarella or fontina for a different twist.
  • 1 medium Yellow Onion Shallots can be a milder substitute.
  • 2 cloves Garlic Cloves A teaspoon of garlic powder can save time if needed.
For Garnishing (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley Interchange with herbs like sage or thyme.
  • 1 teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes Skip if you prefer a milder experience.

Equipment

  • medium skillet
  • Pizza Stone
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Caramelize onions by heating 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium skillet. Add sliced onions and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally for 20-30 minutes until golden. Mix in minced garlic and seasonings in the last 5 minutes.
  2. Preheat your oven to 475°F. Roll out the fresh pizza dough on a floured surface into a 12-14 inch round. Transfer it to parchment paper and pierce the center to prevent bubbling.
  3. Spread canned pumpkin puree over the prepared dough, leaving a ½ inch edge. Top with caramelized onions and garlic mixture, and finally sprinkle gouda cheese on top.
  4. Transfer the pizza on parchment to the preheated oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden, and the gouda has melted.
  5. Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute. Garnish with parsley if desired. Slice into 8 pieces and serve warm.
