Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 large red onions, halved lengthwise
and thinly sliced
1∕2 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 cups chopped dried Black
Mission figs
1 cup red wine
1 cup kalamata olives, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped
fresh rosemary
Flour, for rolling dough
2 pounds whole-grain pizza dough
6 ounces blue cheese, crumbledPreheat oven to 500°F. Line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.

Directions

Heat oil in a large skillet over low heat. Add onions and salt; season with pepper. Cook onions until soft and golden. Add figs and cook for 1 minute more. Add wine, olives, and rosemary; cook, stirring often, until liquid has nearly evaporated. Remove from heat and set aside.

On a lightly floured surface, roll half the dough into a rectangle. Transfer to prepared sheet and press into edges with your fingers. Spread half the onion mixture over the dough, leaving a 1∕4-inch border. Repeat with remaining dough and onion mixture.

Bake for 14 to 16 minutes— switching positions of pans halfway through—or until bottoms are lightly browned. When flatbreads are 2 to 3 minutes from being done, remove from oven and sprinkle with cheese; return to oven and finish baking. Cut each flatbread into 24 squares and serve warm or at room temperature.
