To make Sweet and Spicy Butternut Squash Pizza, you will need the following ingredients:
In a measuring cup, stir the lukewarm water, yeast, salt, sugar and olive oil together, then let sit for about 5 minutes until the yeast starts to bubble and grow.
Transfer to a large bowl and while mixing, gradually add the flour, until completely combined and the dough forms a ball.
Grease the sides of the bowl, cover with a towel and place in a warm area, for one hour, to rise.
Preheat the oven to 425 °F.
Place butternut squash chunks on a baking sheet and toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt and pepper, to coat.
Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes until soft and golden brown.
In a large Dutch oven over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter and add onions and salt. Cook, stirring often, for about 15 minutes until the onions are very soft and golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once risen, punch and roll out the dough, ⅛-inch thick, onto a large sheet of parchment paper. Lightly grease with oil and flatten to form the pizza crust.
Cover crust with caramelized onions.
Sprinkle chipotle pepper and adobo sauce over the caramelized onions
Sprinkle handfuls of cheddar cheese over the top of the pizza.
Top cheese with about 1-2 cups of the golden butternut squash.
Bake in the heated oven for 20 minutes until crust is golden brown and the cheese has melted. Remove from oven.
Sprinkle blue cheese over the top.
Drizzle with honey and serve!
