Equipment

  • 1 Baking sheet
  • 1 Frying pan
  • 1 Mixing bowl
  • 1 Spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pizza dough - store-bought or homemade
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil - for sautéing onions
  • 1 large onion - sliced (sweet or yellow onions are preferred)
  • 8 oz mushrooms - sliced (button or cremini mushrooms work well)
  • 1 teaspoon salt - to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper - to taste
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese - shredded (for topping)
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese - grated (for topping)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream - for garlic sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic - minced (for garlic sauce)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley - chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
  • In a frying pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion, and cook until caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.
  • Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan and sauté for an additional 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • While the onions and mushrooms are cooking, prepare the garlic cream sauce. In a mixing bowl, combine heavy cream and minced garlic; stir well.
  • Roll out the pizza dough on a baking sheet to your desired thickness. Spread the garlic cream sauce evenly over the dough.
  • Top with the caramelized onions and mushrooms, followed by the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
  • Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and slice the pizza.
  • Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

For extra flavor, add fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary.
You can substitute the mushrooms for spinach or artichokes if preferred.
For a gluten-free option, use a gluten-free pizza crust.
