Ingredients

Scale

For the Pizza Dough:

  • 1 lb (450g) pizza dough (homemade or store-bought)

  • 1 tbsp butter, melted

For the Cherry Topping:

  • 1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling

  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar (optional, for extra sweetness)

For the Streusel Topping:

  • 1/2 cup (60g) all-purpose flour

  • 1/4 cup (50g) brown sugar

  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar

  • 1/4 cup (55g) butter, melted

  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon

For the Vanilla Glaze:

  • 1/2 cup (60g) powdered sugar

  • 1 tbsp milk

  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating.

Step 2: Prepare the Dough

Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it to a greased baking sheet or preheated pizza stone. Brush the top with melted butter for a golden crust.

Step 3: Add the Cherry Filling

Spread the cherry pie filling evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Sprinkle with granulated sugar if you prefer a sweeter topping.

Step 4: Make the Streusel Topping

In a bowl, mix together the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter until it forms a crumbly texture. Sprinkle evenly over the cherry filling.

Step 5: Bake the Pizza

Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the streusel is lightly crisp.

Step 6: Prepare the Vanilla Glaze

While the pizza bakes, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 7: Drizzle & Serve

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Drizzle the vanilla glaze over the top and slice into wedges. Serve warm and enjoy your homemade Cherry Pizza Dessert!

Notes

✔ Use Fresh Pizza Dough – This ensures a light, crispy crust.
✔ Don’t Overload with Filling – Too much cherry filling can make the pizza soggy.
✔ Bake Until Golden – The streusel should be crisp, and the crust should be firm.
