Making a sweet sauce pizza can be a delightful twist on the traditional savory pizza. Here’s a simple recipe to guide you:

Ingredients:
Pizza Dough:
2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
1 1/2 cups warm water (110°F)
1 tsp sugar
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
Sweet Pizza Sauce:
1 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
2 tbsp tomato paste
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
Toppings (suggestions):
Fresh mozzarella cheese
Sliced strawberries
Sliced apples
Pineapple chunks
Caramelized onions
Candied pecans or walnuts
Instructions:
Preparing the Dough:
Activate the Yeast: In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
Mix the Dough: In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Stir until a dough forms.
Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Let it Rise: Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours or until it doubles in size.
Making the Sweet Pizza Sauce:
Combine Ingredients: In a medium saucepan, combine tomato sauce, tomato paste, brown sugar, honey, cinnamon, nutmeg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Simmer: Bring the sauce to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and let it cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Adjust sweetness and spices to taste.
Assembling the Pizza:
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it preheats.
Shape the Dough: Punch down the risen dough and transfer it to a floured surface. Roll or stretch the dough into your desired pizza shape.
Add Sauce and Toppings: Spread the sweet pizza sauce evenly over the dough. Add fresh mozzarella cheese and your choice of sweet toppings (e.g., sliced strawberries, apples, pineapple chunks, caramelized onions, candied nuts).
Bake: Transfer the pizza to the preheated oven (or onto the hot pizza stone). Bake for about 10-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Cool and Serve: Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy your sweet sauce pizza!
