Apple Dessert Pizza

It all began when I went to the Pizza Hut buffet. They make this wonderful dessert pizza that is way too sweet and way too wonderful. I thought it would be a good item to take to potlucks and such.

So I did what anyone does, I googled apple dessert pizza and found this wonderful recipe from Christy Jordan. It figures. I LOVE her cookbook, Southern Plate. This recipe isn’t in that cookbook but it does have some other wonderful recipes. I most definitely recommend this cookbook!


Apple Doozie

1 pizza crust
1 can apple pie filling
½ cup quick oats
½ cup dark brown sugar
½ cup flour
½ stick margarine (¼ of a cup)
1 tablespoon cinnamon

Glaze

1 cup Confectioner’s sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Place pizza crust on baking sheet. Open pie filling and dice it up a bit while it is inside the can. Spread over pizza crust.

Place flour, oats, brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Using a long tined fork, cut margarine in to mixture until crumbly. Sprinkle over top of pie filling on pizza crust and bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes, or until lightly golden. Top with glaze.
Glaze

Place all glaze ingredients in small bowl. Stir until smooth. If mixture is too thick, add a little more milk. If it’s too thin, add a little more sugar. Drizzle over Apple Pizza with a spoon.

Variation

To use fresh apples, peel and chop two to three cups apples. Sauté in two tablespoons butter until tender. Add a few tablespoons sugar is you like but keep them a bit tart because the topping adds a lot of sweetness.
