Method
Cut the apples into segments and cook on a low heat in a saucepan with a little water until soft.
Using a thick bottom pan, caramelise the sugar on a low heat until brown, don’t overheat nor stir.
Add the butter and a glug of calvados or rum (we used Don Papa Rum that’s flavoured with vanilla). It will bubble ferociously and is VERY hot – be careful not to touch the caramel.
Stretch the pizza dough over plenty of semolina directly on a peel before adding the topping. The caramel may melt the base so wait until the sauce has cooled a little.
Cover the pizza with the caramel sauce and add the apples, sprinkle generously with cinnamon.
Bake in your pizza oven at 500 degrees C for around 90 seconds, turning frequently.
