I am always looking for something other than the usual pizza. We REALLY enjoyed this! I have done it in the oven as well as on the bbq. I make one large pizza rather than the individual small pizzas. I add freshly ground pepper and it goes very nicely with the tyme/pear flavours. Will make this again. Thanks for a great recipe Molly!

I've made this pizza as written, which is wonderful, but I also like to sprinkle some bleu cheese on it, which is great with the pears & caramelized onion. Sometimes I sub sage for the thyme, depending on what looks best from my herb garden, and the last time I made it, I added some sliced mini-pearl tomatoes, which was a beautiful and tasty addition. Great recipe, Molly!
