["Defrost the pizza dough and follow instructions on package for making a 12"" pizza crust. Make sure ball is thoroughly defrosted and has had time to rest (about 1/2 hour in a bowl) as it will make the dough more elastic and easier to form into a pizza crust.", "Dust with flour and roll out dough into a circle. Put on a pizza pan and brush whole crust with a layer of olive oil.", "Sprinkle dough with garlic salt and Parmesan cheese.", "In a preheated oven (400u00b0F) put the pizza crust into the oven and let bake for 5 minutes.", "Meanwhile, melt butter and about 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet on medium heat.", "Slice pear into thin slices. Gently saute pear slices and walnuts for about 3-5 minutes until the pears begin to caramelize.", "Take crust out of the oven after baking for 5 minutes and sprinkles with mozzarella.", "Arrange pears and walnuts all over the top of the pizza and crumble the entire wedge of blue cheese on top of the pear and walnut mixture.", "Bake for an additional 8-10 minutes or until the cheese melts and the crust is browned.", "Lightly drizzle honey over the whole pizza and serve.", "Garnish with a sprinkle of finely chopped flat leaf parsley (optional).", "***Added flavor: Fry some bacon until crispy and crumble real bacon bits over the top! My family loves the addition of the bacon."]

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
