Caramelized Onion & Fig Pizza
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 45 min. Bake: 10 min.
YIELD: 20 servings.
This is a sensational variation on traditional pizza. It's creamy, sweet and a little salty, with a buttery crunch from the pine nuts. I like to serve it with mixed baby greens salad and a vinaigrette. —Connie Balbach, Bemidji, Minnesota
