Description
Craving the nostalgic taste of a cinnamon dessert pizza from your favorite pizza delivery joint? I’ve got you covered with this simple recipe made with buttery pizza crust, brown sugar, and cinnamon. If that was not enough, I’ve topped it with a sweet vanilla glaze that makes each slice irresistible!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 store bought pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons butter, room temperature
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- ¼ cup flour
- ⅓ cup white sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Brush a pizza pan or sheet pan with ½ tablespoons of butter.
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, 1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon, and 2 tablespoons of room-temperature butter until crumbly. Set aside.
- Place dough on the pan and brush with ½ tablespoons of melted butter. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon over the dough.
- Spread crumble over pizza and bake for 8 to 10 minutes.
- While the pizza is baking, mix powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla for the glaze.
- Let the pizza cool for 10 minutes, then drizzle on the glaze. Slice and serve.
Notes
Tips:
- Spread the melted butter all the way to the edges of the dough. This will help the cinnamon sugar adhere to the surface. You can also use coconut oil or another neutral oil.
- Sprinkle ground cinnamon evenly across the brushed dough to ensure every bite is infused with its warm and aromatic flavor.
- Pay close attention to the baking time to achieve the perfect balance of crispy and golden crust. Overbaking can result in a dry and overly crunchy pizza, while under baking may leave the dough soft and undercooked.
- Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes before drizzling on the glaze, slicing, and serving. This gives the flavors time to marry and the crust to set.
