Cinnamon Crumble Pizza with Sweet Icing

Cinnamon Crumble Dessert Pizza

There’s something wildly satisfying about ending pizza night with a sweet twist, and this Cinnamon Sugar Dessert Pizza delivers every warm, cozy flavor you could want. It’s built on a soft, golden crust and topped with a buttery cinnamon crumble that melts into every nook as it bakes. The whole thing is finished with a silky vanilla glaze that drips into the cracks and makes each slice feel like a cross between a cinnamon roll, a cookie, and a classic bakery pastry. You get a little crunch, a little gooeyness, and a whole lot of comfort.

This recipe is perfect when you want a dessert that looks impressive but requires zero fancy skills. You can use a homemade crust if you’re feeling ambitious, or grab a store-bought dough and let the crumble and glaze steal the show. Everything comes together quickly, bakes in under 20 minutes, and fills the kitchen with the kind of buttery cinnamon smell that gets everyone hovering near the oven.

Serve it warm and let the glaze sink in, or drizzle it on at the table for extra drama. Either way, this dessert pizza guarantees empty plates, happy people, and absolutely no leftovers.


⏱️ Time Breakdown:

  • Prep Time: 20 minutes
  • Cook Time: 15 minutes
  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Servings: 8 slices

📝 Ingredients List:

  • 1 unbaked pizza crust (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ⅓ cup light or dark brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup butter, softened (vegan butter works too)
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ tablespoons milk (any kind)

👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F and lightly grease a pizza pan.
  2. Roll out the dough into a 12-inch circle and transfer it to the prepared pan. Adjust for size if needed.
  3. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, both sugars, cinnamon, and softened butter. Use a fork or hands until it forms a crumbly texture with pea-sized chunks.
  4. Evenly sprinkle the crumble mixture across the crust. Make sure it reaches all the edges!
  5. Bake for 15–20 minutes until the crust edges are golden brown.
  6. While baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk until smooth.
  7. Let the pizza cool slightly, then drizzle the glaze generously over the top. Or go bold and pour it on while hot for a gooey, melty bite 😍

💡 Pro Tips:

  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temp for up to 2 days.
  • Make it ahead: Prep the crumble and dough in advance—just assemble and bake when ready.
