Pear & Blue Cheese Flatbread
Ingredients
This classic combination of pears, walnuts, and blue cheese is used to create a delicious gourmet flatbread. Have patience with the onions: while you can stop when they are just golden, the robust flavor imparted by taking the time to caramelize them properly is well worth the added effort.Tip: If you're using sweet onions, you can get away with cooking them until they're just soft. For the fullest flavor, however, we recommend a long, slow cook over low heat. If you have the patience to cook them for a full hour, you'll get the best result.

2. Use the vinegar to deglaze the pan. Stir in sage and pepper.
3. Place oven rack in the lowest position; preheat to 450 degrees F. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
4. Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to the size of the baking sheet. Transfer to the baking sheet. Bake until puffed and lightly crisped on the bottom (8-10 minutes).
5. Toast walnuts in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat, stirring, until lightly browned and fragrant (2-3 minutes).
6. Spread onions on the crust and top with pears, walnuts, and cheese. Bake until the crust is crispy and golden and the cheese is melted (11-13 minutes). Slice and serve.
