Directions

70 min.
1. Step

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat.

2. Step

Heat oil in a pan over medium heat and add the sliced onions. Cook until they become translucent and start to caramelize. Add sugar, salt, and pepper. Cook until the onions are fully caramelized, then set aside.

3. Step

Roll out your pizza dough on a lightly floured surface. Shape it according to your preference, thin or thick.

4. Step

Transfer the pizza dough to your heated pizza stone or baking sheet. Arrange the caramelized onions evenly on the dough, leaving the edges for the crust.

5. Step

Crumble Gorgonzola cheese over the onions and drizzle a little olive oil on top.

6. Step

Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.

7. Step

Remove from the oven and top with fresh arugula leaves before serving.

We got the idea for these impromptu gnocchi from our Home Cooking community discussion board. All you need is half a pound of pizza dough, a pot of boiling salted water, and a sauce (marinara is perfect). Enlist your kids to help with the shaping, then let them watch you poaching the dough and tossing it in the sauce. What to buy: Premade pizza dough is available bagged in 14- or 16-ounce portions at well-stocked groceries.
