Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 tbsps (30 ml) unsalted butter, melted
- ⅓ cup (66 g) granulated sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup (50 g) brown sugar
- ½ cup (60 g) powdered sugar
- 12 tbsps (180 ml) milk
- ¼ tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prep Station: Preheat oven to 375F (190C), positioning rack in center for even golden-brown transformation of the dessert pizza.
- Dough Crafting: Gently stretch pizza dough on flour-dusted surface, creating a smooth, thin foundation with slightly raised edges to contain the sweet coating.
- Flavor Foundation: Generously spread softened butter across entire dough surface, ensuring complete and even coverage to help cinnamon-sugar mixture adhere perfectly.
- Sweet Coating: Sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture uniformly over buttered dough, pressing gently to create a vibrant, aromatic layer that will caramelize during baking.
- Baking Magic: Slide prepared pizza into preheated oven, baking for 10-12 minutes until edges turn deep golden and cinnamon-sugar topping becomes gloriously crisp and slightly bubbly.
- Finishing Touch: Remove from oven and let rest briefly, allowing crust to set and caramelized sugar to solidify into a delicate, crunchy surface.
- Serving Suggestion: Optionally embellish with a delicate icing drizzle or dollop of whipped cream, then slice into triangular or rectangular pieces for an irresistible dessert perfect alongside vanilla ice cream.
Notes
- Choose Fresh Dough: Select high-quality, fresh pizza dough for the best texture and flavor, ensuring a crisp and golden base.
- Control Butter Application: Spread softened butter evenly but sparingly to prevent soggy spots and maintain a perfectly crisp crust.
- Monitor Caramelization: Watch carefully during baking to achieve that perfect golden-brown edge without burning the cinnamon-sugar topping.
- Customize Serving Options: Experiment with toppings like sliced almonds, powdered sugar, or a chocolate drizzle to personalize the dessert pizza experience.
