So then an apple pie with cheese on top is like a pizza, because it is
made with a crust and baked?
Pizza is made with bread dough. It most often has a tomato sauce, but not
always. toppings are optional. Quiche is always made with a rich custard
filling.
In the area of France where quiche originated they have their own version
of pizza called an onion tart. It is a bread dough that has been spread
out like pizza and it is topped with cheese and lots of onion then bake
in a hot oven.
