Increase the heat to medium-high and add sausage. Cook, stirring constantly, about 8 minutes or until cooked through. Set aside to cool.
Roll dough out, put on baking sheet, and drizzle with olive oil. Spread onion mixture, and sprinkle cheese over top.
Bake until golden and cheese is melted, 15-17 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with basil.
