- 1 medium apple (e.g., Honeycrisp), thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion

- 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C) with a pizza stone or inverted baking sheet inside.
- On a floured surface, stretch pizza dough into a 12-inch round. Transfer to a floured pizza peel or parchment paper.
