Cinnamon Sugar Dessert Pizza

Prep Time: 15 mins | Cook Time: 12 mins | Yield: 8 slices

Ingredients

  • Dough: 1 store-bought pizza dough (or pre-baked crust)

  • Base: 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

  • Cinnamon Sugar Topping:

    • 3 tbsp light brown sugar

    • 1 tbsp granulated sugar

    • 1.5 tsp ground cinnamon

    • 2 tbsp cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes

  • Vanilla Glaze:

    • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

    • 1 tbsp milk or heavy cream

    • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prep & Bake Base: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Roll out pizza dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or pizza stone. Brush entire surface evenly with 2 tbsp melted butter.

  2. Add Topping: Mix brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle evenly over the dough. Dot the surface with cold, cubed butter to create a crumb-like texture.

  3. Bake: Bake for 10–12 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the sugar topping is bubbly.

  4. Glaze & Serve: Whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle liberally over the hot pizza immediately after removing it from the oven. Slice and serve warm.

Variations

  • Fruit Crisp: Add thin apple or peach slices before baking.

  • Cream Cheese Base: Swap melted butter for a mixture of 4 oz softened cream cheese and 2 tbsp powdered sugar spread directly on the raw dough.
