Ingredients you need to make Apple Crisp Pizza:
- 1 Pillsbury pizza dough
- 3 peeled and diced apples – you can use your favorite apple. Granny Smith balances out the sweetness with a bit of tartness.
- 1 Tbsp white sugar
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
TOPPING
- 1/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1/4 cup rolled or instant oats
- 2 Tbsp packed brown sugar
- 1.5 tsp cinnamon
- 2 Tbsp light margarine, softened
- 2 Tbsp sugar free caramel sauce. Smuckers has a great one.
How to make Apple Crisp Pizza (step by step):
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Spray a baking sheet and unroll the pizza dough onto it. Gently pat it until it’s even and flat, and spread it across the baking sheet.
- Pre-bake the pizza dough in the hot oven for 4 minutes. Remove it from the oven and turn the oven down to 325F.
- In a small bowl, mix the diced apples, white sugar, and 1/2 tsp cinnamon together. Gently sprinkle it over the pizza dough until it’s even.
- In a bowl, mix the oats, flour, brown sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon, and margarine together. Pro tip: use your hands. Hands are the kitchen’s best tool! You want a small, even crumble. Once it’s mixed well, sprinkle it evenly over the apples.
- Bake in the oven for 16-18 minutes-check once it’s close to 14-15 minutes to make sure the dough does not burn.
- Immediately after it comes out of the oven, drizzle with the caramel sauce.
- Use a pizza cutter and cut horizontally across the middle and then 10 cuts vertically to leave you with 20 pizza fingers.
- It is best served warm, but you won’t want to wait to eat these anyways. Enjoy!

Different ways to change up this recipe:
- Serve with a scoop of low sugar vanilla ice cream or Halo Top Vanilla Bean and you’ve got the perfect summer dessert.
- Change up the fruit! In the spring, berries would be an excellent replacement for the apples. Blackberries or blueberries bake best. Peaches would also be delicious.
- If you have the points for it, a great addition to the topping is a few tablespoons of toasted almond slivers or toasted, chopped pecans.
- Use this recipe for your next camping trip. Just spread the pizza dough into a cast iron skillet, and once you add the toppings, cook it over the fire.
- Make little apple crips cups by cutting the pizza dough into 20 even squares or cutting out circles with a biscuit cutter. Place each circle in a sprayed muffin tin and pat it until it’s evenly spread around the whole cup. Fill with the apples and crumble topping. Bake for 10-15 minutes in a 325 degree oven. These little cups are perfect for parties!
Tips and Tricks for Making Apple Crisp Pizza:
- This does not freeze well, so make sure to plan on eating the whole thing within 5 days.
- Store it in an air tight container to keep the dough crisp.
- If you store it in the fridge and want to reheat it – use an air fryer if you have one. It’ll warm up the apples, toast the topping, and re-crisp the pastry base. If not, just pop it in the oven for a few minutes.
