Ingredients

For the Crust:

1 (9-inch) pie crust (store-bought or homemade)

For the Apple Filling:

4 cups peeled & diced apples (Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, Gala, or Fuji)
2/3 cup granulated sugar
3 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 tsp ground cinnamon

For the Crumble Topping:

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup brown sugar (packed)
1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 cup salted butter (softened)

For the Caramel Drizzle:

1/2 cup caramel sauce (homemade or store-bought)

Optional Add-Ons:

Chopped pecans or walnuts for extra crunch
Vanilla ice cream for serving


Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) for even baking.

Step 2: Prepare the Crust

  • Roll out the pie crust onto a 12-inch pizza pan.
  • Fold the edges slightly to create a rim (this prevents the apple filling from spilling).

Step 3: Make the Apple Filling

  • In a mixing bowl, combine sugar, flour, and cinnamon.
  • Toss in the peeled and diced apples, coating them evenly.
  • Spread the apple mixture evenly over the crust.

Step 4: Make the Crumble Topping

  • In another bowl, mix flour, brown sugar, oats, and cinnamon.
  • Add the softened butter and use a fork (or hands) to create a crumbly texture.
  • Sprinkle the oat crumble topping evenly over the apples.

Step 5: Bake the Apple Crisp Pizza

  • Place the pizza pan in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the apples are soft and the topping is golden brown.

Step 6: Add the Caramel Drizzle

  • Let the apple crisp pizza cool slightly.
  • Drizzle warm caramel sauce generously over the top.

Notes

Use the Right Apples – For the best texture, mix tart and sweet apples like Granny Smith + Honeycrisp.
✔️ Pre-Bake the Crust – To prevent a soggy bottom, bake the crust for 5 minutes before adding the filling.
Make It Extra Crunchy – Add chopped pecans or walnuts for a nutty crunch.
Low-Sugar Version – Use coconut sugar instead of white sugar for a healthier twist.
Extra Flavor Boost – Add a splash of vanilla extract to the apple mixture.
