Pear Gorgonzola Pizza
Just ask Shayna and me, Pear Gorgonzola Pizza is the thing dreams are made of. This recipe is easy peasy and so delicious!
I have always been a picky eater, my entire life I never liked to try new things. Then you get married and that person tries to get you to eat new things. Then you get pregnant and you crave random things.
Out of this my new love of food was born. I find that I am trying new things and exploring new recipes. My brother and sister in law had a similar pizza like this at their wedding and I haven’t been able to stop wanting it since.
Nobody makes it better than homemade though, you can add things you love more, take away what you don’t love! This recipe is one of my favorites of all time. Give it a try.
Pear Gorgonzola Pizza
Ingredients
- Pizza Dough (link to our favorite pizza dough recipe)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ¼ cup grated parmesan
- 1 cup mozzarella
- Caramelized thinly sliced Pears
- Caramelized thinly sliced Red Onions
- 4 slices chopped bacon
- ¼ cup Gorgonzola Cheese
- 3 tablespoons balsamic glaze
Directions
- Preheat oven and pizza stone to 500 degrees.
- In medium heated skillet, place thinly sliced pears and onions. Cook until they are clear for about 5 to 8 minutes.
- Roll out your pizza dough to about 10 inches in diameter. Spread olive oil where you would normally put the sauce. You can use a little extra if necessary. Top with the grated parmesan.
- Next, put on mozzarella, you can add extra here if you’d like. Top with Pears, bacon, red onions, and Gorgonzola Cheese.
- Bake in the oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown.
- Top with balsamic glaze. My husband likes to have a lot of this so you can add what you’d like! Enjoy!

This is the second pizza I have seen today that has gorgonzola on it. I know I am missing out and I’m adding it to my shopping list ASAP. This looks so good. I love the finish of the Balsamic glaze. That’s a favourite in our household. I’ll be trying this on pizza night this week
YUM!! What a truly interesting pizza combo. I like this unique combo and am totally giving it a try. Very delicious pairing.
We’re always looking for new flavors of pizza to try. It’s my favorite food. I never met a pizza I didn’t like 😉
I love pizza with pineapple, so this would be right up my alley. I’m not sure if I can find gorgonzola cheese though!
Sounds like a good combination, I love eating pears and cheese. I have never add balsamic to my pizza before so this is new to me i might have to try it!
Pears and cheese.. Never thought about this one. I will try this although I am not really the person that combines food.
Buying a pizza stone is something I want to do. Pizza comes out so much better on one. I love the combo of gorgonzola and pears!
I would never have thought cheese and pears would go together but this looks yum so I guess the two work well together
That is a good combination, though I will admit I had never tried pear on pizza. I will save this recipe because I think I would like it
I’m such a sucker for red onion on pizza. All these tastes seem like they would be great together. Looks like it would be a great pizza.
That pizza looks so amazing! I would love to try this at home. I bet my whole family would love it!
This pizza looks awesome! I’ve never done pear on pizza, but I really like that you cook it with the onions first. Also, that balsamic glaze…LOVE IT!
Oh yum – pear and gorgonzola so good together! I’m going to try this with a grain-free pizza dough and see how it turns out. Pinning for later!
Wow. Looks delicious – all those cheeses in the recipe has to make it amazing!

This looks delicious! I’ve seen this on restaurant menus but haven’t seen a recipe to make it at home. I’m definitely trying this one!
Thanks for sharing. DH found a pear recipe for stuffing a few years back and I’ve been looking for other pear related recipes that aren’t desserts.
This sounds so good for date night! Definitely going to try! Thanks for posting on Inspiration Monday 🙂
