This boldly-flavored brussels sprouts pizza features roasted brussels sprouts, caramelized onions, and blue cheese. It's baked until it's golden and crispy, then finished with a sweet balsamic glaze. It's surprisingly delicious, it's easy to make, and it's ready in under an hour!
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Toss the brussels sprouts with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt and toast them for 15 minutes.
1 lb brussels sprouts
While the brussels are roasting, prepare the caramelized onions. Add the red onion plus the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Let the onions cook until they are soft, then lower the heat to medium-low, sprinkle a pinch of sugar over the top, and let the onions caramelize for another 5 minutes.
1 large red onion, 1 pinch sugar
Arrange the pizza dough onto baking sheets or a pizza pan. Drizzle the top of the crust with olive oil then sprinkle the parmesan cheese over top. Add the onions and brussels sprouts then dot with blue cheese.
2 pizza crusts, ½ cup parmesan cheese, 1 cup crumbled blue cheese
Bake the pizza for 12-15 minutes, until the cheese has melted and the crust is cooked. Serve the pizza with a little parsley on top and drizzled with balsamic glaze. If you'd like, you can add a little more blue cheese before serving.
