reduces to a thick caramel consistency. Remove from heat and reserve warm.

raised rim around the edge. Place on a wooden pizza peel sprinkled with
cornmeal. Using a fork, poke holes all over dough.
5. Bake 6-8 minutes until light brown. Remove from oven and spoon caramel
sauce over pizza. Top with bananas and chopped pecans. Return to oven and
bake another 3-4 minutes, until crust is golden brown.

6. Remove pizza from oven and brush the crust with melted butter. Combine sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle crust with cinnamon sugar. Cut into slices
and top each slice with creme fraiche.
