If French onion soup is a favorite, this pizza must be tried. Gruyere cheese is what really tops this pizza off nicely.

  • Salt
  • Pepper

Method

Add butter to skillet over medium heat. Once butter has melted, add onions, garlic, a good sprinkling of salt and pepper, and thyme. Allow onions to sweat down for about 10 minutes, then stir and let continue to sweat another 5 minutes. Add wine and beef broth, simmering about 5-10 minutes or until wine starts to oxidize and turn brown. When onions are cooked through, drain and save the broth and wine mixture. Add flour and boil mixture about 10 minutes when it should be significantly reduced. Remove from heat and add cream. Shape pizza dough into 10-12 inch diameter, 1/4 inch thick disk. Top with onions and then layer with chunks of Gruyere. Bake at 325 degrees on a middle to lower middle rack for about 15 minutes, checking to make sure the Gruyere doesn't burn.
