🍕 Butternut Squash & Shallot Pizza

Serves: 2–4
(As a cozy dinner for 2, or as an appetizer for 4–6.)

I made this in Nantucket for appetizer night with friends — and it was one of those dishes that disappeared fast. Butternut squash and caramelized shallots with creamy vegan feta… it’s sweet, savory, cozy, and somehow feels both effortless and special at the same time.

Now I’ll be making this on repeat.
For fall dinners, for sharing, or honestly just for me. 🍂

It’s the perfect seasonal bite: thin roasted squash, soft tangled shallots, and warm crust that holds everything together. Optional balsamic at the end for a little brightness.

Ingredients

For the pizza:

• 1 ball pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)

• ½ small butternut squash, peeled + thinly sliced

• 2 shallots, thinly sliced

• ⅓–½ cup vegan feta (Follow Your Heart / Violife)

• Olive oil

• 1 clove garlic, minced

• Salt + black pepper

• Optional: balsamic glaze for finishing

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F.

2. Toss squash + shallots in olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast 15–20 mins.

3. Roll out the dough. Brush with olive oil + scatter minced garlic.

4. Layer squash + shallots over dough. Crumble feta on top.

5. Bake 12–15 mins or until golden + crisp.

6. Optional: drizzle balsamic before serving.

Notes

• Slice squash thin for even roasting.

• Cube it instead if that’s easier — still delicious.

• Toast leftovers in a skillet to re-crisp.

This is the recipe I’ll keep coming back to all season — sweet, savory, warm, and so easy to share.
