Fall is just around the corner and my thoughts turn to all the delicious flavors of the season. Pumpkins and apples jump to mind; pears also and squash of course! So for today’s Sunday Supper we are celebrating Fall Foods!
Apples are my weakness when it comes to fruit. Raw, cooked, sauced, baked, you name it. Its all good eating. I chose a form of pizza adapted from one of my favorite cookbooks, The Complete Vegetarian Cookbook.
This pizza has cinnamon and apple juice concentrate in the crust. I added smoked gouda between the apple layers. So good! Some pecans for crunch and craisins, well they’re craisins, people!
Hot Apple Pizza
This pizza is just as good served cold!
