Ingredients
  

For the Pizza
  • 1 Store-bought or homemade pizza dough Use half of the dough ball
  • 2 Small apples thinly sliced
  • cup Maple syrup divided
  • 12 ounces Shredded Italian blend cheese
  • 4 slices Cooked bacon cut into thick pieces
  • ½ cup Roasted garlic cloves
  • 3 ounces Blue cheese crumbled

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking sheet
  • small bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).
  2. Place the thinly sliced apples in a small bowl. Pour half of the maple syrup over the apples and set aside.
  3. Divide the pizza dough ball into 4 sections. Reserve half of the dough for another use. Stretch one section of the dough and place it on a small baking sheet, shaping it into a rectangle. If the dough springs back, let it rest for a few minutes, then continue to spread it to the edges of the baking sheet.
  4. Layer the dough with half of the shredded Italian cheese. Top with the maple-glazed apple slices, half of the bacon pieces, roasted garlic cloves, and chunks of blue cheese.
  5. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown. Drizzle with the remaining maple syrup, cut, and serve immediately.

Notes

This recipe uses half of a standard pizza dough ball, yielding two small pizzas. You can adjust the toppings to your preference. For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon.
