Time 35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pre-baked pizza crust
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 sprigs fresh rosemary, chopped
¼ cup white wine vinegar
½ cup olive oil
¼ cup crumbled blue cheese
salt and pepper to taste
¼ cup crumbled blue cheese
⅓ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 pears - peeled, cored and sliced
¼ cup toasted walnut pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Place the pizza crust on a pizza pan. Bake in the preheated oven until just crisp, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the garlic, Dijon mustard, rosemary, and vinegar in a food processor or blender. Turn on, and drizzle in the olive oil slowly until the dressing has thickened. Quickly pulse in 1/4 cup of blue cheese; season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Spread the vinaigrette over the pizza crust. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of blue cheese evenly over the crust, followed by the mozzarella cheese. Arrange the sliced pears over the cheese, and sprinkle with the toasted walnuts.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese has melted and is bubbly, 7 to 10 minutes. Let cool slightly before cutting into slices.

Maggie and Peter's Blue Cheese and Fig Pizza image

From a recipe exchange, inspired by an amazing restaurant in the Bay. The original calls for sausage but I actually think the flavors are even more amazing without.
