4 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 cup plain flour

Arrange the apples on the baking sheet and toss with the lemon, 2 tablespoons of the cinnamon, 1/4 cup of the brown sugar and cinnamon stick. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes or until the apples are soft and fragrant. Set aside to cool.
Meanwhile, make the cinnamon streusel. In a small bowl, combine the remaining light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons of the cinnamon and flour. Add in the melted butter and mix until the mixture is crumbly.
Lower the oven temperature to 180 Celsius / 360 Fahrenheit. Place the pizza base on a pizza stone or a baking tray lined with parchment paper.

Meanwhile, prepare the glaze by whisking together the confectioners' sugar, 1 teaspoon of the cinnamon and milk. Whisk until smooth and thin enough to drizzle.
Remove the pizza from the oven and drizzle over the glaze. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Storage Tips
Each of the pizzas are best eaten warm, the day of making, but can be kept stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. You can then re-heat the pizzas in the microwave or oven before eating.
