Place on a pizza stone or a tray and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit / 175 degrees Celsius for 10-15 minutes.
Remove crust from the oven, add sauce and toppings of choice.

For Sauce:

Add all ingredients into a high-power food processor.
Blend and add additional olive oil as necessary until the sauce is smooth.

For Toppings:

Heat olive oil in a large skillet.
Add delicata squash and cook until golden brown on both sides. Set aside.
Add red onion to the pan and cook until caramelized. This step should only take a few minutes. Set aside.
Add sausage and cook until thoroughly browned. Set aside.

For Pizza:

Spread a thin layer of Romesco sauce on the baked pizza crust.
Layer cooked squash, onion, and sausage mixture.
