Brussels Sprouts Pizza with Balsamic Red Onions Recipe :
Brussels Sprouts pizza has been maddening me for the past week. I knew I needed to put Brussels sprouts on it, but what else?
After a few models, counting ruddy onions on best, pesto on foot and a disappointment of a velvety spinach sauce, it at long last happened to me to utilize balsamic, caramelized ruddy onions as the base. That’s the ticket!
I gone to Italy in college and the nonattendance of red sauce on pizzas over there completely stunned my youthful American self.
Like, time out, Rome! You overlooked your marinara! At that point I conceded that Italians know their pizza and that perhaps my quintessential pizza concept was a small off.
Up until at that point, I thought that pizza comprised of batter also marinara additionally plentiful sums of cheese, heated to bubbly flawlessness. In Italy, in spite of the fact that, pizzas are more broadly acknowledged as heated flatbread with garnishes. Possibly marinara, possibly not. Perhaps cheese, possibly not. Possibly cooked onions instep, or pesto, or veggies.
It’s all reasonable amusement. They prepare their pizzas on enormous rectangular dish and offer them on the road. So good.
This pizza may not be for everybody, but I’m a fan. Strikingly flavored, semi-caramelized onions with decreased balsamic vinegar, topped with mozzarella and Brussels sprouts (cut two ways for most extreme crispiness and surface) and a sprinkle of Parmesan for great measure.
I took a short-cut with entire wheat batter from Dealer Joe’s, but my simple entirety wheat dough would be indeed better!

INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat broiler to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and put a pizza stone on the center rack if you have one. Cut your onions into lean rounds (the more slender you cut them, the quicker they will cook).
- Prepare the Brussels by cutting off the intense closes and disposing of them. Utilize your fingers to drag off the person leaves around the exterior, at that point trim off the recently uncovered intense conclusion, and proceed until you have broken the sprout into leaves. Rehash for almost half of the Brussels sprouts, at that point cut the rest into lean cuts from best to foot. Sprinkle the sprouts with 1 ½ teaspoons olive oil and hurl well. Rub the oil into the sprout leaves so they’re all delicately coated in oil, including another sprint of oil if essential. Hurl with a sprinkle of salt and pepper and set aside.

I like to roll out the batter on pieces of material paper for simple exchange to the stove. For best comes about, roll the mixture out as lean as sensibly conceivable whereas keeping up an indeed surface level.
- Top the mixture with an indeed layer of ruddy onions, taken after by mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle the Brussels on beat, at that point wrap up with a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese.
- Transfer one pizza to the stove at a time (on the off chance that you don’t have a preparing stone, prepare your pizza on a cookie sheet). Prepare until the outside is brilliant, the cheese is bubbly and the Brussels sprouts are crispy on the edges, approximately 10 to 14 minutes. Rehash with remaining pizza, if you have one. Best the pizza(s) with a light sprinkle of naturally ground dark pepper (believe me!) and ruddy pepper chips if you’d like, at that point cut and serve.
