Recipe by Elvie Rudley, Winner of the Cosmic Crisp® Culinary Challenge Kid Chef Category!

“The apple is definitely the star in this dish AND it makes a perfect breakfast that can be prepared ahead for those busy school mornings. I could also imagine making this pizza my own by adding simple toppings like granola or peanut butter.”

-Carla Hall, Chef and Cosmic Crisp® Culinary Challenge Judge
  1. Place ingredients below in a food processor and pulse for 20 seconds  until butter is coarsely chopped:  1 cup quick oats, ¾  cup whole wheat flour , ½ stick butter  cubed 1/2 inch,  ¼ tsp salt, ½ tsp cinnamon,  1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  2. To dry ingredients add ½ cup milk,  ½ tsp vanilla and 1 egg to food processor and pulse for 20 seconds until dough forms a soft dough ball.     Grease with cooking spray a 12” cast iron skillet and spread out dough using fingers all the way to the edge of the skillet.
  3. Slice 1 whole Cosmic Crisp® apple into ¼ inch slices and display evenly over the dough in a circular pattern with slight overlap. Start at the upper edge and finish in the middle.
