Caramelised onion sheet pan pizza

Yields4 ServingsPrep Time10 minsCook Time1 hr 30 mins

Ingredients

2 store bought pizza bases or pizza dough balls
4 brown onions
2 tbsp olive oil + 1 tbsp to drizzle
1 potato, finely sliced and peeled
2 sprigs rosemary
50 g Gruyère cheese, grated
120 g buffalo mozzarella cheese
salt and pepper

Method

1

To make the caramelised onions, heat the olive oil in a heavy based deep saucepan over medium heat. When sizzling, add the onion. Immediately reduce the heat to low and cook for 60 minutes, stirring occasionally.

2

Once the onion is golden brown, season with a generous amount of salt and stir through. Take off the heat and set aside.

3

When ready to assemble the pizza, preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius. If using pizza dough, place it onto a sheet pan and stretch out with your hands. Cover with a damp tea towel and leave to rest for 10 minutes. Otherwise, if you are using ready made bases, place them onto a sheet pan.

4

Top the pizza base with a sprinkle of Gruyère cheese, followed by the caramelised onions, potato slices and buffalo mozzarella. Sprinkle rosemary and salt and pepper all over. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil and bake for 20 – 30 minutes or until golden brown and the cheese has melted.

5

Remove from the oven and sprinkle with some extra rosemary leaves. Leave to sit for 5 minutes before slicing into it.
