This fig & prosciutto pizza highlights one of my favorite fall ingredients: figs! Homemade pizza dough is topped with a sweet fig spread, a spicy caramelized fig and shallot mixture, slices of fresh mozzarella, and shredded fontina cheese before being baked. Out of the oven, it’s finished with thin pieces of prosciutto and peppery arugula. It’s an irresistible sweet and savory combination – the perfect addition for an October pizza night.

French Onion Pizza
This french onion pizza is exactly what we need this December. A simple, no-fuss kind of dinner that could not be more comforting.

They get cooked with butter, thyme, bay leaves, sherry wine, and beef stock to give them the rich flavors of french onion soup. Combine those with lots of gruyere and mozzarella cheese? The perfect winter pizza. Continue reading “French Onion Pizza”
