Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pre-made pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • Optional: fresh fruit (like strawberries or bananas) for topping
  • Optional: whipped cream for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. If using store-bought dough, let it sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes. If making your own, roll it out on a floured surface to about 12 inches in diameter.
  3. Transfer the rolled-out dough onto a pizza stone or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Fold the edges slightly for a thicker crust if desired.
  4. In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until well combined.
  5. Brush the melted butter generously over the entire surface of the pizza dough, including the edges.
  6. Evenly sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the buttered dough.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the sugar has caramelized slightly.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
  9. In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  10. Gradually mix in the heavy cream until the mixture is fluffy and spreadable.
  11. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled pizza, leaving some cinnamon sugar crust exposed around the edges.
  12. Arrange sliced fresh fruit on top of the cream cheese layer if desired.
  13. Cut the pizza into wedges, typically 8 slices.
  14. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream on the side if desired.
  15. Gather friends or family and enjoy this delicious cinnamon sugar pizza!

Notes

  • Experiment with Flavors: Add different spices like nutmeg or allspice to the sugar mixture for a unique twist.
  • Try Different Toppings: Consider adding nuts, chocolate chips, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for extra flavor.
