My Cooking Experience 👩‍🍳

With 4-5 years of baking experience, I’ve perfected the balance between crisp, sweet, and buttery in this Apple Crisp Pizza. Using a pre-made pie crust saves time, while a homemade oat topping adds the perfect crunch. The secret? Letting it cool slightly before slicing to allow the flavors to set!

Ingredients 🛒

For the Crust:

1 pre-made pie crust (or homemade)

For the Apple Filling:

3 large apples, peeled, cored, and sliced thinly (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work best)
¼ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp nutmeg
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 tbsp lemon juice

For the Streusel Topping:

½ cup rolled oats
⅓ cup brown sugar
¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ tsp cinnamon
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

For the Topping:

¼ cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
Vanilla ice cream (optional)

Instructions 🍽️

1. Prepare the Crust 🍕

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the pie crust and place it on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet or pizza pan.

2. Make the Apple Filling 🍏

In a bowl, mix the apple slices with granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Stir until apples are coated evenly. Spread the apple mixture evenly over the crust.

3. Make the Streusel Topping 🍯

In a separate bowl, combine oats, brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture becomes crumbly. Sprinkle the streusel topping over the apples.

4. Bake and Serve 🔥

Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the topping is crisp. Remove from the oven and drizzle with caramel sauce. Let cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream for an extra treat!

Variations 🔄

Nutty Crunch: Add chopped pecans or walnuts to the streusel topping.
Extra Sweet: Sprinkle powdered sugar on top before serving.
Spiced Up: Add a pinch of cloves or ginger for a deeper fall flavor.
