Ready to get started? Follow these simple steps to create your own delicious flatbread.

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). If you’re using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions, and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften, about 5 minutes.
3. Sprinkle sugar over the onions, continuing to cook and stir for another 15-20 minutes, until the onions are golden brown and caramelized. Patience is key here, much like the way my abuela would slowly simmer her dishes to perfection.
4. Roll out your flatbread or pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer to a baking sheet or preheated pizza stone.
5. Evenly spread the caramelized onions over the dough, then sprinkle with crumbled goat cheese, fresh thyme leaves, salt, and pepper.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is slightly melted.
7. If using, drizzle the balsamic glaze over the top before serving. This adds a touch of sweetness that contrasts beautifully with the savory elements.

As you bake, enjoy the aroma that fills your kitchen — it’s a little like a warm hug from your favorite meal.
