This flatbread is topped with one of my favorite combos,
bacon, bleu cheese & fresh pears
Sweet, salty, cheesey!
The flatbread also gets a big flavor boost from caramelized onions
and roasted garlic
The first step is to form the crust by stretching the pizza dough
into a rectangle on a sheet pan,
drizzle it with olive oil and sprinkle it with salt and pepper
Bake it for 10 minutes until it starts to brown
Squeeze roasted garlic onto the crust
and spread it around into an even layer
and then top the crust with the caramelized onions
Tear the bacon into small pieces or use scissors to cut it up
This flatbread also has Parmesan & Mozzerella cheeses
along with the bleu cheese
Sprinkle the cheeses all over the onions
and then add the bacon pieces
Top with the pear slices
Bake for 10-15 minutes until golden and melted
