You'll stretch and shape our foolproof premade dough, then top with our roasted onion and garlic spread, mozzarella, thyme-infused caramelized onion and mushrooms, and tangy feta.

Prep Dough
1

• Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 475 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Sprinkle 3 TBSP flour over a clean work surface. Remove pizza dough from packaging and place on floured surface. Shape each piece of dough into a ball. TIP: Spray your hands with nonstick cooking spray or dust with flour to prevent sticking. • Evenly sprinkle dough balls with 2 TBSP flour. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.

Prep Toppings
2

• While dough rests, halve, peel, and thinly slice onion. Trim and thinly slice mushrooms (skip if your mushrooms are pre-sliced!). Strip thyme leaves from stems; discard stems and roughly chop half the leaves (reserve remaining thyme for garnish).

Cook Veggies
3

• Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add onion; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 3-4 minutes. • Add mushrooms and chopped thyme; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies are softened, 5 minutes. TIP: If pan looks dry, add another drizzle of oil. • Add garlic powder, 1 tsp sugar(2 tsp for 4 servings), and 1⁄4 cup water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is jammy and caramelized and mushrooms are browned and tender, 2-3 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper. (For 4, you may need to work in batches.)

Stretch Dough
4

• Once dough has rested 20 minutes, line a baking sheet (two baking sheets for 4 servings) with parchment paper. Carefully press and stretch each dough ball into a rough oval shape and place on one side of prepared sheet (you’ll have two dough ovals per baking sheet). TIP: If needed, use a rolling pin to help roll out dough. • Cover dough with a clean kitchen towel and let rest 15 minutes. (This will make stretching the dough into a larger shape even easier!)

Shape & Assemble Pizzas
5

• Once dough has rested 15 minutes, use floured hands to press and stretch dough on baking sheet into larger oval shapes, about 10 inches long and 5-6 inches wide. • Evenly spread dough with roasted onion and garlic spread, leaving a 1-inch border. Sprinkle with mozzarella. Top with caramelized onion and mushroom mixture and feta. Drizzle or brush edges of dough with olive oil.

Bake Pizzas
6

• Bake pizzas on top rack until crusts are golden brown and crisp, 14-18 minutes. (For 4 servings, bake on top and middle racks, swapping rack positions halfway through.)

Serve
7

• Sprinkle reserved thyme leaves over pizzas. Slice as desired and serve.

Pork is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 145°.

  • Flavor: Many loved the delicious combination, though some found it overly sweet. Consider reducing sugar for a more savory taste.
  • Ease of prep: Shaping the dough took extra time and effort, but many felt the homemade crust was worth it.
  • Suggestions: Try adding balsamic glaze or chopped tomatoes for extra flavor. Consider reducing sugar in the onion mixture.
  • Portions: Some found the onion portion small; others felt ingredient amounts were well-balanced.
  • Crust: The pizza dough received high praise for taste, though some had trouble stretching it evenly.

So good! I was pleasantly surprised to see fresh pizza dough, that was fun! This one took a little longer than expected, but worth it. Well balanced flavor. Fresh thyme is a nice add, but I really hate trying to separate from twigs, it's a pain.

Instructions for cooking the vegetables part weren't exactly clear. I ended up with a swamp I had to boil off and then I cooked my pizza for 14 mins and it was so freaking crisp. Overall it was delicious but I wish I hadn't ended up with a crust that's hard to chew

This was VERY good, but it was a lot of work and not typically what I'm looking for. Still, it was kind of fun for a change, although I wouldn't get it again. It's the pizza dough -- too much damn work.

It was pretty good! My only complaint comes from the garlic and onion sauce, which was way too sweet. Other than that this was an enjoyable one!

Really liked the pizza dough in the bags much better than the pre made flatbread

It's great but the pizza dough balls just keep getting smaller each week

The dough balls were each perfect for one flatbread and they were proofed perfectly. My homemade dough isn't as good.
