Apple Pizza: A Doozie of a Desserrt
How to Make Apple Pizza
This is an apple pizza recipe I whipped up because I LOVE the apple dessert pizzas that all of the pizza chains have. I got to thinking that it would have to be a quick and easy recipe for them to make them on such a large scale. After taking a few minutes to wrap my head around it and dream up the ingredients, I went shopping and made a Southern Plate version of Apple Pizza Dessert.
Ingredients For Apple Pizza Dessert
You’re gonna need:
- Pizza crust,
- Apple pie filling,
- Cinnamon,
- Quick oats,
- Flour,
- Brown sugar,
- Butter
For the glaze on top you’ll also need
- Confectioner’s sugar,
- milk, and
- vanilla.
Most pizza crusts I buy come in two packs so this is a great time to mosey on over and make Taco Pizza, first then serve this for dessert. Good eatin!
*Tips for using fresh apples after the recipe card below.
- First off, open that can of pie filling.
- You’ll notice most of the apples are in slices in there so we want to dice them up a bit so they’ll spread better.
- What I do is take a long bladed knife and stick it down in the center, then pull it to the side.
- Repeat this over and over and you dice up the apples in the can with no mess.
- Now take out one of those pizza crusts and put it on a baking sheet.
- Spread the pie filling over the top of the crust.
- In a small bowl, place brown sugar, cinnamon, flour, and oats.
- Stir to combine.
Cut up 1/2 stick of margarine (or butter) and place in the bowl.
Using a long tined fork, cut that into the dry mixture until it looks like this.
- So you can cut the butter in until it looks like this or you can just cut it in until you get tired of fooling with it. Pizza will still be good. ~shrugs~ I’m easy to please.
- Take that topping and sprinkle it all over your apple pizza pie filling and crust.
This bowl I’m using is a Pyrex one in a pattern called “Gooseberry Pink”. The style of bowl is called “Cinderella”. Cinderella bowls had two handles on them , one slightly larger than the other, and they were raised on the sides so that the handles could be used as pouring spouts. If you scroll up and look at the top view photos of the bowl you’ll see what I mean.
Ok, back to the recipe…
- Here is our apple pizza all ready to bake
- Place it in a 350 degree oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until lightly browned.
Making the Glaze
- To make our glaze, place one cup of confectioner’s sugar in a bowl and..
- Add about two tablespoons of milk.
You can add more if you need to but start with this, you’ll be surprised at how far it goes once you start stirring.
- Stir that up good and add your vanilla
- Stir again
- Use your spoon to drizzle the icing over the top.
Here’s your slice. Can’t you just taste the wonderful flavors?
Let pizza cool for about five minutes or so before eating
(just enough so you don’t burn the tar out of your mouth when you take a bite)

Oh my! I don’t leave the pizza place unitl I’ve had a slice…or two…:)… of apple pizza. The last time we went I kept sending my husband to go check for the apple pizza…so, this recipe is after my own heart, ( and stomach.) Thanks for another wonderful recipe. I’ll be trying this one out as soon as the banana puddding from Daddy’s birthday party is gone.
Thank you so much for this yummy pizza pie recipe 🙂 You always make everything look so easy!
I have those bowls! both the large and small pink ones Hmmmm I wonder where hubby put them. I will be making this tomorrow as I still have some homemade apple pie ice cream still left.
I have this in the oven as I type and my kitchen smells wonderful! Thank you for sharing! 🙂
Oh, Christy, that apple pizza looks so good! I made one similar to it before several years ago, need to do it again because we love the apple pizza at restaurants too. My only problem is that it seems like whenever I buy apple pie filling, a lot of the apple slices have that hard part in the center of the apple attached to them. Do not like. I guess I could go through all the slices and cut it off though! Also I love your jewelry. I think jewelry is pretty but I don’t wear much of it, and my approach to fashion is exactly the same as yours. I have 2 necklaces that I love also- one of them is actually kind of similar to the grateful one you have, my mom gave it to me the night before my wedding. The other is a necklace that matches my engagement ring that my husband gave me the night he proposed. He played a trick on me and gave me a tiny velvet box that I thought was an engagement ring… it was the necklace! Then later that night he actually proposed. I was completely not expecting to be proposed to so you could have knocked me over with a feather both times! Okay one last thing: this morning I poured bacon grease in a jar for the first time in my life. It’s in the fridge. Thought you’d be proud.
It is in the oven, and ohhhhhhhh it smells so wonderful!! I’m going to add a scoup of vanilla ice cream to top if off! We made the mexican pizza first-yummy! A nice easy meal to end this labor day!!
P.S. If you feed me , I will dress you. I love fashion even if I am getting old.
Clothes are my downfall but I am getting better at not buying anything as I don’t have any more room in my closets and I am trying to be economical. I just can’t afford it anymore but I have more clothes than a person has any right to have. LOL
