I learned this from my mother in law, it's straight from Italy and more than worth the effort! The ingredients will look odd, but the final product is delish!

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 6

5 lb yellow onions
3/4 bottle green olives w/ pimento, sliced
3/4 can(s) ripe black olives, sliced
1 can(s) anchovies
2 sheet(s) pizza pie crust
1/2 c evoo

Steps:

  • 2. Drain & Slice the olives in thirds or quarters. You can use the whole cans, but usually 3/4 is enough. Drain and mince the anchovies.
  • 3. Using a jelly roll pan, spread out first layer of pizza crust, drizzle alittle of the onion oil and juice onto it and spread. Spread all onions on crust. and top with your sliced olives, then sprinkle the minced anchovy all over. (be sure not to group too much anchovy in one area, you want little pieces distributed throughout, but no big chunks.
  • 4. Cover with second crust folding over sides and sealing. Cut several small steam holes & Bake in pre-heated 425 degree oven for approx. 45 min.- 1hr till golden brown. Leave in pan and cool and rest for 8 hours or overnight. Cut& serve at room temp.

Overall, I thought this recipe was pretty good. The pie was tasty, but I think it could have been better with a few tweaks.

The pie was good, but I found the crust to be a bit too thick. I think I'll try using a thinner crust next time.

This pie was a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try using less oil next time.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe at first, but I'm so glad I tried it. The onion pie was amazing! The crust was crispy and the filling was flavorful and cheesy. I will definitely be making this again.

I've made this pie twice now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The onions caramelize beautifully, and the cheese is melted and gooey. Yum!

This Italian onion pie was a hit with my family! The flavors were amazing, and the crust was perfectly flaky. I will definitely be making this again.
