Caramel Apple Pizza combines fresh apples and candied pecans with a creamy filling on a cookie crust. This dessert is so much fun to eat with caramel sauce drizzled on top!
When we have fresh harvest apples, this is one of our favorite desserts to make along with Cinnamon Roll Apple Rose and Apple Pie Tacos. You get the tartness of apples and the crunchiness of pecans in every bite!
It’s easy to make when you’re entertaining or just as something casual at home. The best part? Ready in just 30 minutes!
How to Make Caramel Apple Pizza
To keep things simple, we’re using store-bought sugar cookie dough for the crust. Then we top it with a cream cheese frosting. The final step is topping with chopped apples and pecans before drizzling with caramel sauce.
For the apples, we used Granny Smith but you can use any variety you like. To prevent them from discoloring, pour some seltzer on top of the chopped apples or squeeze some lemon juice on top.

Ingredients
- 16.5 oz package sugar cookie dough
- 2 large Granny Smith apples, chopped
- 1 1/2 cups seltzer water
- 1/3 cup candied pecans
- 1/4 cup caramel sauce
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. For the crust, line a 10-12-inch circular pan with tin foil and spray with cooking spray.
- Press the cookie dough onto the bottom of the pan.
- Bake for 13-15 minutes. Let cool completely after removing from the oven.
- For the frosting, mix the cream cheese until creamy. Then mix in the butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla.
- After dicing the apples, place them into club soda water. This will prevent them from browning. Drain after 3 minutes.
- Frost with the cream cheese spread and top with the diced apples and candied pecans. Drizzle with caramel sauce.
Notes
- Make Ahead: This dessert is best eaten within an hour or two of preparation. To prevent the chopped apples from turning brown, you can squeeze a few drops of fresh lemon juice on top and cover with plastic wrap.
