Acorn Squash, Caramelized Onion, and Rosemary Pizza

I would recommend serving this pizza in small squares as an appetizer. This is a white pizza that uses a simple olive oil and garlic base. I changed up my usual pizza dough recipe by adding brown sugar for a sweeter crust.

Slightly Sweet Pizza Dough

1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 cup warm water
1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 cups flour and 1/4 cup flour, divided
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon salt

1. Mix yeast, water, and sugar together. Let stand about 10 minutes, until mixture has bubbles.
2. In a food processor fitted with a dough hook, mix yeast mixture with all other ingredients until just combined.
3. Put dough in a bowl, cover with a towel, and let rise until dough doubles in size, about 30 minutes.
4. Sprinkle flour on surface. Roll out dough until desired shape.
