Ingredients

  • 6 1/2 ounces dry pizza crust mix
  • 1/2 cup hot water
  • 5 tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 ounces crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh

  • 4 apples, cored and chopped

Directions

  7. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil. Add the dough and fry until the

  9. Once cooked, place the circles on a cookie sheet. Sprinkle the feta,
  10. red onion, and thyme on top of the circles.
  11. Bake the pizzas until the feta begins to brown, about 10 to 12
  12. minutes.
  13. While the pizzas bake, in the previously used skillet, heat 1/2
  14. tablespoon of butter and a few sprigs of thyme. Mix the apples into
  15. the skillet, and cook until the apples are soft and golden. Lay the
  16. apples on top of the pizzas, season with pepper, and serve.
