1) Preheat the oven to 425.

2) Apples-set the slices in a bowl or glass with a 1/2 c. of the cider and let rest for at least 20 minutes or up to one hour. Drain before putting on pizza, reserving liquid.

3) Sausage-in a pan over medium-high heat, combine the sausage and fennel. Cook, breaking apart frequently until the sausage is browned on it's edges. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sausage to a paper towel lined plate. Reserve the cooking juices.

6) Assembly! I like to do: sauce, apples, some cheese, onions and sausage, some more cheese. Bake on a sheet pan or pizza stone for 10-15 minutes. Take out of oven, top with arugula, and rest a few minutes before cutting.
