Cooking Instructions for making Fruity Caramelized Onion Pizza
To a large pan on medium-high heat, add the oil and sliced onions. Cook for 25 – 30 minutes, until the onions are golden. In the last 5 minutes of cooking, add the Italian seasoning.
While the onions cook, make the feta by adding the tofu, oil, nutritional yeast, vinegar, onion powder, salt, and dill to a small food processor. Blend until smooth. Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate to harden.
Preheat the oven to 250°C. Optionally, brush the pizza crusts with some olive oil.
Transfer the onion mixture to a small food processor. Blend until a partly pureed, partly chunky mixture is achieved. This blending step is optional.
Spread the blended onion mixture over the pizza crusts.
Distribute the cut grapes over the crusts as well, then transfer the pizza to the oven.
Bake on the center rack for 8 – 10 minutes, or until the crust is golden.
Top with the sliced pears, arugula, “feta”, a drizzle of balsamic vinegar reduction, and some toasted walnuts. Enjoy!
