Equipment
- Oven
- Pizza Pan or Baking Sheet
- Mixing Bowl
- Whisk
Ingredients
- 1 unbaked pizza crust homemade or store-bought, about 12 inches
Cinnamon Crumble Topping
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup light or dark brown sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup butter softened; vegan butter works too
Vanilla Glaze
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 tbsp milk any kind
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a pizza pan or baking sheet.
- Roll out the pizza dough into a roughly 12-inch circle and transfer it to the prepared pan. Adjust the size and shape as needed.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon. Add the softened butter and mix with a fork or your hands until the mixture forms a crumbly texture with pea-sized chunks.
- Evenly sprinkle the cinnamon crumble mixture over the entire surface of the pizza crust, making sure to cover all the way to the edges.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the crust edges are golden brown and the crumble is set and lightly crisp.
- While the pizza bakes, whisk together the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk in a small bowl until smooth and pourable. Add a few extra drops of milk if needed to thin.
- Let the dessert pizza cool slightly, then drizzle the vanilla glaze generously over the top. For an extra gooey bite, you can pour the glaze on while the pizza is still warm.
