Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Caramelized Onions
Slice the onions thinly. Heat 1 tablespoon of EVOO in a skillet over medium heat, add the onions, and cook slowly for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until they are golden brown and caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 250°C (482°F) or as high as it can go to achieve the best pizza crust.
Assemble the Pizza
On a floured surface, stretch the pizza dough into a round shape. Place it on a pizza stone or baking sheet. Spread the crushed tomatoes evenly on the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle dried oregano over the tomatoes, and then distribute the caramelized onions and fior di latte cheese evenly on top.
Bake the Pizza
Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of EVOO over the top of the pizza. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.
Garnish and Serve
Once the pizza is out of the oven, scatter fresh basil leaves on top. Let it cool for a minute, slice, and serve hot.
