Time 35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pre-baked pizza crust
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 sprigs fresh rosemary, chopped
¼ cup white wine vinegar
½ cup olive oil
¼ cup crumbled blue cheese
salt and pepper to taste
¼ cup crumbled blue cheese
⅓ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 pears - peeled, cored and sliced
¼ cup toasted walnut pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Place the pizza crust on a pizza pan. Bake in the preheated oven until just crisp, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the garlic, Dijon mustard, rosemary, and vinegar in a food processor or blender. Turn on, and drizzle in the olive oil slowly until the dressing has thickened. Quickly pulse in 1/4 cup of blue cheese; season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Spread the vinaigrette over the pizza crust. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of blue cheese evenly over the crust, followed by the mozzarella cheese. Arrange the sliced pears over the cheese, and sprinkle with the toasted walnuts.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese has melted and is bubbly, 7 to 10 minutes. Let cool slightly before cutting into slices.

This pizza was too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less pears or adding some more savory ingredients to balance out the sweetness.

I wasn't a fan of the blue cheese on this pizza. I would recommend using a different type of cheese if you don't like blue cheese.

This pizza is a bit bland. I would recommend adding some more spices or herbs to give it more flavor.

I used a combination of blue cheese and goat cheese for this pizza and it was delicious! The goat cheese added a bit of tanginess that balanced out the sweetness of the pears.

I added some crumbled bacon to this pizza and it was amazing! The bacon added a smoky flavor that really complemented the other ingredients.

This pizza is a great way to use up leftover pears. I had a few pears that were starting to go bad and this pizza was the perfect way to use them up.
