Instructions

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone inside to heat up.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add sliced onions and a pinch of salt. Cook for 20-30 minutes until golden brown.
Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to reach a 12-inch diameter. Transfer to a baking sheet dusted with flour.
Brush the dough lightly with olive oil, spread caramelized onions on top, and sprinkle with blue cheese and fresh thyme leaves.
Bake the pizza for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
Remove from the oven, drizzle with balsamic glaze, slice into 8 pieces, and serve warm.

Notes

Caramelizing onions takes time; monitor the baking to avoid burning.
