I've been MIA lately. It's been one thing after another at our house lately, and I feel like I've hardly cooked or baked in a month! But my parents were visiting a couple weeks back (Yes, it's taken me a couple weeks just to post this.), and we (and by we, I mean mostly my mom) made this wonderful dessert! We all agreed that it was pretty fantastic. I think I'll be making this again for Thanksgiving. Yep, it's so good it's deserving to sit at your Thanksgiving table!
Apple Crisp Pizza
From The Girl Who Ate Everything
Pastry for a single-crust pie
Apple mixture:
2/3 cup sugar (we used a little less than this)
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 medium apples, peeled and diced into 1/4 inch pieces
Topping:
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup butter, softened (use salted butter or sprinkle a little salt over the top of the pizza)
1/2 cup caramel topping (I used Hershey's caramel syrup)
Roll
pastry to fit a 12 inch pizza pan; fold under edges to give the pizza a
bit of a raised crust. Combine sugar, flour and cinnamon in a medium
bowl. Add peeled, diced apples and toss. Arrange the apples in a single
layer over the pie crust to completely cover it. I didn’t use all of my
apples because I had really big apples.
For
the topping: Combine the flour, brown sugar, oats, cinnamon, and butter
in a bowl. Mix well. Sprinkle topping
evenly over the apples.
Bake
at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes or until apples are tender. Remove
from oven and immediately drizzle with caramel topping. Cut into pizza
slices and serve warm with ice cream. Makes 12 servings.
