Instructions
- Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- Roll out the dough like you always do (Hey, I don’t judge.). Use a pizza pan or don’t.
- Pop it into the hot oven for a few minutes to lightly firm & crisp it up.
- Meanwhile, combine the garlic, Dijon mustard, rosemary, and vinegar in a food processor or blender.
- While it is blending, drizzle in the olive oil slowly until the dressing has thickened.
- Quickly pulse in 1/4 cup of the bleu cheese; season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Spread the vinaigrette over the pizza crust.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of blue cheese evenly over the crust, followed by the mozzarella cheese.
- Arrange the sliced pears over the cheese, and sprinkle with the toasted walnuts.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese has melted and is bubbly, 7 to 10 minutes.
- Let cool slightly before cutting into slices.
- EAT IT!
