Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Roll out the refrigerated pizza dough onto a pizza pan or baking sheet and shape it into a large circle or rectangle.
In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon.
Brush the top of the pizza dough with the melted butter and sprinkle evenly with the cinnamon sugar mixture.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10β12 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely.
In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until smooth and creamy.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
Slice the apples thinly and toss them in lemon juice to prevent browning.
Arrange the apple slices on top of the cream cheese layer in a decorative pattern.
Drizzle caramel sauce generously over the apples.
Sprinkle the chopped pecans (if using) on top for added crunch and flavor.
Cut into wedges or squares and serve immediately. Enjoy your Caramel Apple Pizza!
