Ingredients
Pizza Dough
- ½ cup lukewarm water
- ½ tsp active dry yeast
- ½ tsp honey
- 1 ½ cup all purpose flour
- ½ tsp salt
Pumpkin Spread
- 1 ounce can pumpkin puree (NOT pie filling)
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 Pinch ground cloves
Streusel Topping
- ½ cup all purpose flour
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ¾ tsp ground cinnamon
- 4-5 tbsp cold unsalted butter cut into small pieces
Drizzle
- 1 tbsp cream cheese softened/whipped
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- ⅛ tsp vanilla extract
- 1-2 tbsp milk
Instructions
- Start by making pizza dough. If you’re using store bought, skip to step #7. I prefer to use a pizza stone, but it isn’t required. If you choose to use a standard baking sheet, it doesn’t have to be placed inside your oven in advance. If using a pizza stone, place in the oven prior to preheating.
- Preheat the oven to 500°F if using a pizza stone (450°F if using a baking sheet).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine water, yeast and honey. Let it sit and rest for about 10 minutes until it foams.
- Stir in the flour and salt to the yeast mixture. Stir until the dough comes together. I usually use my hands for this step. If your dough is still sticky, add very small amount of flour (no more than 1 tsp) at a time until it is no longer sticky. Be careful because adding too much flour can make it tough.
- On a large piece of parchment paper, knead the dough a couple of times and then allow it to rest 10-15 more minutes. This will keep it from springing back when you try to roll it out.
- Roll the dough out. I prefer a thin crust in this recipe (and for my pizza), but if you prefer a thicker crust, you can leave it a little thicker at this point.
- Using the parchment paper, transfer the dough to the pizza stone (or baking sheet).
- Bake in the oven for 4 minutes (you’ll need more time for a thicker crust). You’re not looking to have a fully baked crust at this point. Remove from the oven.
- Turn your oven down to 400°F.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine your pumpkin spread ingredients.
- Spread your pumpkin mixture over the crust. I recommend leaving a small border of naked crust around the edges to make it easier to grab when eating.
- Next, make the streusel topping. Combine the flour, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon.
- Add the small pieces of butter and combine. Cut the butter into the flour mixture until you reach a sand like consistency.
- Sprinkle the streusel topping over the pumpkin spread of your pizza.
- Return the pizza to the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
- While the pizza is cooking, make your drizzle.
- Mix together your cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk. Add just enough milk to make it thick but runny. You want to be able to drizzle it.
- Remove the pizza from the oven and drizzle the cream cheese topping while it's still hot.
- Allow it to cool about 5-10 minutes before slicing to be sure it stays together. Serve up and enjoy!
