Ingredients
– 1 (9-inch) pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
– 2/3 cup sugar
– 3 tablespoons flour
– 1 teaspoon cinnamon
– 4 cups peeled and diced apples (about 4 apples, such as varieties like Gala, Fuji, Braeburn, or Empire)
– 1/2 cup flour
– 1/3 cup brown sugar
– 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
– 1 teaspoon cinnamon
– 1/4 cup salted butter, softened
– 1/2 cup caramel sauce
Instructions
1-Preheat oven and prepare the crust. Getting started with this apple crisp pizza recipe is as easy as pie pun intended! Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, which is the ideal temperature for baking this treat. This step ensures everything cooks evenly and the crust turns out just right.
2-Mix and coat the apples. Next, roll out your 9-inch pie crust to fit a 12-inch pizza pan and fold the edges under to make a raised crust. It adds a nice touch and helps hold in all those delicious toppings. Then, in a medium bowl, mix together 2/3 cup sugar, 3 tablespoons flour, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon before adding 4 cups of peeled and diced apples; toss them until theyβre evenly coated.
3-Layer the apples on the crust. Arrange the apple mixture in a single layer over the crust for even baking. For the topping, combine 1/2 cup flour, 1/3 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/4 cup softened salted butter. Use your hands to mix it until it feels like wet sand, then sprinkle it evenly over the apples.
4-Prepare and add the topping. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the apples are tender, and donβt forget to drizzle 1/2 cup caramel sauce on top right after it comes out of the oven. Let it cool a bit, cut into slices, and serve warm itβs perfect for 12 servings, especially with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
5-Bake and drizzle with caramel. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the apples are tender, and donβt forget to drizzle 1/2 cup caramel sauce on top right after it comes out of the oven. Let it cool a bit, cut into slices, and serve warm itβs perfect for 12 servings, especially with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
6-Serve and enjoy! Let it cool a bit, cut into slices, and serve warm itβs perfect for 12 servings, especially with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
