Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a pan over medium high heat, melt butter, add in apple.
Cook apples for 4 minutes, add in vanilla, sugar, and water. Lower temperature to medium low. Cook for an additional 6-8 minutes while stirring occasionally or until apples become tender enough to pierce through with a fork.
Place the apples into a bowl aside to allow to cool.
On a floured surface roll pizza dough into a rectangle.
Cut off the edges to make sure it's straight.
Spread caramel sauce over the pizza dough, sprinkle with apples and top with chocolate chips.
With a pizza cutter, lengthwise cut into six even strips, make two separate stacks of three strips. Take the pizza cutter and cut each strap width wise into three equal squares.
Take a well greased 9x5 inch loaf pan, turn it vertically and stack the squares into the loaf pan.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until bread is deeply brown.
Remove from heat, allow bread to completely cool for about an hour.
Drizzle with additional caramel topping, if desired.
Serve & Enjoy!
