Time 50m

Yield 1 pizza pie, 8-16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 apples, pare, and slice about 1/4-1/2-inch thick, Rome apples work great (or more, I always add more, just be careful of the boil overs)
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (store bought or freshly grated is nice)
3/4 cup flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 1/3 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup shortening
3 tablespoons ice water

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450°F.
  • Prepare pastry with last 4 ingredients and roll out onto a pizza pan (12-14 inch) -- mix flour and salt, add the cold shortening, using pastry blender, work the dough till crumbly, add the ice water to form a dough ball, roll out onto the pizza pan (12-14 inch).
  • Pare apples and cut into approximately 1/4-1/2 inch slices. It is optional to pare the apples, it is not necessary if that is your preference.
  • At the edge of pan, begin layering the apple slices around the entire pan, overlapping and possibly topping layer on layer, if you want more apples than stated, some might like it that way.
  • Mix together the cinnamon/nutmeg ingredients and sprinkle on top of apples.
  • To make the crumble topping, make sure the butter is chilled or out of the freezer, combine using a pastry blender to make crumbly.
  • Sprinkle evenly over the apple/cinnamon mixture. You can sprinkle with additional cinnamon if you like lots of spice.
  • Bake 30-40 minutes or until edge is golden and the apples are tender.
  • SERVE WITH YOUR FAVORITE ICE CREAM OR WHIPPED CREAM.

I'm allergic to apples. Is there a substitute fruit I can use in this recipe?

This recipe seems complicated. I'm not sure if I have the skills to pull it off.

I'm not a big fan of apples, but this pizza pie might change my mind. The combination of sweet and savory sounds intriguing.

I made a few modifications to the recipe and it turned out great! I used a pre-made pizza crust to save time, and I added a sprinkle of cinnamon and nutmeg to the apples. The combination of flavors was perfect!

This recipe was a disaster. The crust was soggy and the apples were mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

Just made this apple pizza pie and it turned out amazing! The crust was flaky and golden brown, and the apples were perfectly caramelized. The whole family loved it!

Wow! This apple pizza pie is a game-changer. Never thought apples could taste so good on a pizza. The caramel sauce adds a touch of sweetness that balances out the tartness of the apples perfectly. Definitely a new favorite!
