No reviews

This French Onion Soup Pizza combines the rich, savory flavors of classic French onion soup with the comfort of melted cheese on a crispy pizza crust. Featuring caramelized onions, mozzarella, and Gruyere cheese, it’s a deliciously bold twist on two favorite dishes.

  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 1 pizza

Ingredients

1 large pizza crust of choice (such as organic frozen gluten-free)

3 small sweet onions, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon coconut sugar

1 cup fresh mozzarella, sliced or shredded

3/4 cup shredded Gruyere cheese

Fresh thyme for garnish

Red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, warm the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced onions and cook for about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. Cover the skillet and simmer the onions for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure they cook evenly.
  3. Stir in the coconut sugar and cook for an additional 2 minutes, until the onions are caramelized and golden brown.
  4. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Drizzle a bit of oil over the pizza crust to prepare it for the toppings.
  5. Spread the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the crust. Then, add the caramelized onions, followed by the Gruyere cheese and a sprinkle of fresh thyme.
  6. Place the pizza in the oven and bake for about 10 minutes, until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted. Broil for 1–2 minutes for a bubbly, crispy finish.
  7. Slice the pizza and enjoy while it’s still warm!

Notes

You can add cooked chicken or sausage on top of the pizza for extra protein.

Use a gluten-free pizza crust if needed.

Substitute Gruyere with Swiss cheese or cheddar for different flavors.

Experiment with herbs like rosemary or oregano to customize the taste.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
