Roasted Squash Pizza with Caramelized Onions & Bacon
Sorry if you’re suffering from squash overload. It is everywhere, sometimes overflowing their bins, but even the ugly, unidentifiable gourds really are so great for you, and worthy of our attention. Perhaps if I repackaged it on a pizza? with bacon and caramelized onions? Yes? Sold?
There really isn’t much of a recipe here, I’m afraid. Dice some squash – whatever kind you have – a small one or half a large one – toss in a drizzle of olive or canola oil and roast on a rimmed baking sheet at 400F for 20-30 minutes, stirring once or twice, until golden. Cook a few slices of bacon, set them aside and cook a thinly sliced onion in the drippings until it turns golden. Crumble the bacon.
Spread the roasted squash, caramelized onions and crumbled bacon over rolled-out pizza dough and scatter with mozzarella, Gouda, crumbled goat cheese or whatever cheese you like. Bake at 450F for 15-20 minutes, until bubbly and golden. Ta-da! The soft, sweet squash goes so well with the salty, smoky bacon. And melty cheese really does make anything better.
Basic Pizza Dough
AuthorJulieIn a large bowl, stir together the water, yeast and sugar; set aside for 5 minutes, until it’s foamy. (If it doesn’t get foamy, either your water was too hot and killed the yeast or it was inactive to begin with – toss it and buy fresh yeast or try again!)
Add 2 1/2 cups of the flour, salt and oil and stir until the dough comes together. On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough for about 8 minutes, until it’s smooth and elastic, adding a little more flour if the dough is too sticky.
Place the dough in an oiled bowl and turn to coat all over. Cover with a tea towel or plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place for half an hour to an hour, until doubled in bulk. If you want you can let it rise more slowly in the refrigerator for up to 8 hours.
Roll the dough out into one or two pizzas. Spread the pizza dough with tomato sauce or paste, sprinkle with desired toppings and bake on a preheated pizza stone or cookie sheet at 450F for 15-20 minutes, until bubbly and golden.

This looks wonderful Julie! 🙂
Mmmm that sounds yummy and perfectly fall-ish!
Lovely pizza! This looks delicious and perfect for fall. 🙂
I once did a pizza with pureed curried squash (just a thick squash soup as the sauce), sauteed apples, caramelized onion, sharp cheese, and sausage. It was amazingly good.
uuhhhh. yes. 🙂

Wow!! Yay!! Costco!! That’s amazing!! Thanks so much for buying it!!
i’ve totally been doing this too! we have squash coming out our ears and have been pureeing it and spreading it on pizza dough [with bacon and onions, of course, and sometimes kale, because, well…also coming out the ears]. it’s a squashza! and if we use the puree as a pasta sauce: squashta!
Julie… made this for dinner last night. so, so, so good.
Thanks!
Bought your cookbook at Costco today too. It caught my eye as soon as I saw it. It is gorgeous and I cannot wait to cook my way through it. So proud of you!!!
Hi Julie
Have made my first recipe from your new cookbook. Thai chicken with black beans and sweet potato. Very good and very easy. Thank You!!!
Rose
Looks so GD delicious. I’m all about using squash in unconventional ways lately too…i.e. not putting it in soups or roasting in oven as per standard!
Great, now I’m hungry and it’s 10PM on Sunday night…
I was just thinking of this pizza! You read my mind.
This look delicious! I like the combination of salty and sweets flavors.
The sweet from the onions and the salty from the bacons create a nice combination of flavors hard to forget!.
I might try this during this weekend… or today perhaps?
This is a question which is in to my heart… Many thanks! Exactly where can I upon the contact details an eye to questions?
