Tips
You can definitely bake your own crust but this is an easy midweek meal
Preparation
Pre-heat oven to 425° F. On a baking sheet, toss together the olive oil, butternut squash, honey, cinnamon, cayenne, and a pinch each of crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Roast for 15-20 minutes, until the squash is just tender and remove from oven. Add 1 drop of sage vitality oil to the squash and toss. Increase the heat to whatever the directions on the package say.
Meanwhile, caramelize the onions. Melt the butter in a large skillet (cast iron is best) on medium-high heat. Add the shallots t and cook approx 3 minutes, until softened. Add balsamic vinegar, season with salt and pepper and continue cooking another 5 minutes, until the vinegar has mostly evaporated and until the onions are golden and caramelized. Add a pinch of crushed red pepper, cook another minute. Remove from the heat.
To assemble. Drizzle the dough lightly with olive oil. Top with the onions, you may not need them all. Add the cheese, then the prosciutto. Arrange the butternut squash on top.
Slide into the oven and bake until the crust is golden and the cheese has melted. Once removed drizzle with balsamic glaze. ENJOY!
