From craving to table
Instructions
- 1
Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C) or as hot as it will go. If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
- 2
Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface into a very thin rectangle or oval, about 1/8 inch thick. Transfer to a sheet of parchment paper.
- 3
In a small bowl, mix together the crème fraîche, heavy cream, black pepper, nutmeg, and salt until smooth.
- 4
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and softened (about 6-8 minutes). Remove from heat.
- 5
Spread the crème fraîche mixture evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
- 6
Top with the caramelized onions and scatter the bacon pieces (lardons) evenly across the surface.
- 7
Transfer the pizza (on parchment) to the preheated pizza stone or a baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the edges are crisp and the bacon is cooked through.
- 8
Remove from the oven, sprinkle with chopped chives if desired, slice, and serve hot.
