Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (approximately 12-inch size) Pizza dough
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 3 medium-size Apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 0.25 cup Caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet or pizza stone with parchment paper.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet or pizza stone.
In a small saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar and 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar. Once the mixture is smooth and slightly bubbly, remove it from heat and let it cool slightly.
Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. In a large bowl, toss the apple slices with the remaining 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, cornstarch, and lemon juice until evenly coated.
Spread the butter and sugar mixture evenly over the pizza dough, leaving about a half-inch border around the edge. Arrange the coated apple slices in a circular pattern over the sugar mixture, slightly overlapping each slice.
Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and brush it lightly over the edges of the pizza dough.
Bake the Apple Pizza Pie in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the edges of the dough are golden brown and the apples are tender.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Drizzle the caramel sauce evenly over the apples.
If desired, dust the finished pizza pie with powdered sugar for an additional touch of sweetness.
Slice into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy your Apple Pizza Pie as a dessert or a sweet snack!
