plastic bag. Let rise in a warm place until

doubled in size, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.

spray.

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface.

Roll out into a rectangle and then fit onto the

prepared pan, stretching the ends of the

dough to meet the edges of the baking tray.

dough over the entire surface. Brush the

dough with the remaining olive oil, and

sprinkle the salt and rosemary to cover.

Pissaladière

Makes one 1-inch “pizza”
3

tablespoons unsalted butter

2

pounds onions, halved and thinly

sliced

½

teaspoon kosher salt

½

teaspoon granulated sugar

½

teaspoon dried thyme

3

anchovies, finely chopped

1

tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

12

Niçoise olives, pitted and sliced in

half

Place butter in large 1-inch sauté pan over

low heat. Once melted, stir in the sliced

onions, salt, sugar, and dried thyme. Cook

over low heat, stirring occasionally until

onions are soft and melted, approximately 50

to 60 minutes. It is important to maintain low

heat so the onions stay light in color.

Preheat the Cuisinart

Pizza Oven, fitted with

the pizza stone, for 30 minutes. Coat the

pizza mesh with cooking spray.

Combine chopped anchovies and olive oil

and reserve.

Once onions have finished cooking, roll out

pizza dough into a 1-inch circle. Place on

pizza mesh and stretch dough to fit.

Brush the entire surface of the dough with

the anchovy oil. Top with onions, leaving a 1-

inch border around the outside. Place olive

halves evenly over onions.

If desired, extra anchovies can be laid in Xs

on the top of the pie as well.
