Cinnamon Apple Orange Dessert Pizza

May sound like a random combo, but it's one of my very favorite ones.  This is pretty simple and super delicious for a dessert!  :)

Pizza Dough (homemade or store-bought)
Apples (finely diced, 1 apple for small pizza, 2 for medium, 3 for large)
Sugar (2 T for every apple used)
Cinnamon (1/2 t for every apple, high quality is best, I used Vietnamese Saigon from Savory Spice Shop)
Orange Zest (as much as you'd like, or about zest from 1 orange for every 2 apples used)

1.  Spread out pizza dough on pan or cast iron skillet. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2.  Cook diced apples in a a microwave safe container with 2 T of water per apple until tender.  Or about 2 minutes per apple.  Drain water.
3.  Spread cooked apples over pizza dough.  Sprinkle with sugar, cinnamon and orange zest. (like below)

4.  Bake in 400 degree oven for about 7-10 minutes or until the crust is done.
Serve warm and enjoy!*
Optional to drizzle simple icing over slices before serving.

Dessert Pizza


Dessert Pizza:
Use the same dough as my regular pizza, and recipe is below as well.
1-3 c. fruit of your choice (cook apples on stove beforehand but blueberries cooked fine in the oven.)
1/4 c. Flour
1/2 c. Brown/Granulated Sugar
1 Tbsp. Butter/Margarine

Dough:
1 package active dry yeast
3/4 c. warm water
1 c. All Purpose Flour
1 c. Whole Wheat Flour
1 Tbsp. Olive Oil
1/2 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Sugar (or Honey)
Olive oil to brush on crust

1. Start by adding the yeast to the warm water and stir.
2. Mix in the rest of the ingredients into the yeast mixture.
3. Once well combined, let rise for 30 minutes.
4. Punch down, turn and let rise another 30 minutes.
5. After the dough is done with the second rise, place it on a pizza pan evenly spreading it to the edges. (I used one with wholes in it so it is nice and crisp on the bottom.)
6. Bake dough for 4 minutes at 400 degrees.
7. Spread fruit evenly across dough.
8. Mix streusel ingredients (flour, sugar and butter) together with a fork, and sprinkle on top of the pizza.
9. Bake dessert pizza for about 13 minutes at 400 degrees.

Yum. :)
