Method
 

Dough Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 packet of instant yeast, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 cup of hot water, and 1 cup of warm milk. Stir gently to dissolve the yeast, then add 1 teaspoon of salt and 2 tablespoons of oil. Gradually incorporate 3 cups of all-purpose flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
  2. Knead lightly for about 2 minutes, then cover with a clean towel and let rest for 15 minutes in a warm spot.
Shaping the Dough
  1. Lightly grease a baking sheet or pizza pan. Press or roll the dough into a 12-inch circle, ensuring even thickness.
Making the Crumb Topping
  1. In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup of brown sugar, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon. Add 1/2 cup of softened butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  2. Sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly across the surface of your shaped dough.
Baking
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the topped dough in the middle rack and bake for 15-20 minutes, looking for a golden-brown crust.
Icing the Pizza
  1. While the dessert pizza is baking, whisk together 1 cup of powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and enough milk to achieve a drizzle-worthy consistency. Drizzle icing over the warm cinnamon crumb topping.
Serving
  1. Slice the Cinnamon Crumb Dessert Pizza into wedges while warm and serve immediately for the best taste.
