Fun, Festive & Fruity Dessert Pizza

This is one of those recipes that's as fun to make as it is to eat.

My fruity dessert pizza is a huge hit at parties, plus it gives you a healthy dessert option.

If you have kids, they'll like adding the toppings and you'll have plenty of help eating it too.

Use any fresh fruit you have on hand to top your festive masterpiece. Get creative!

 

Fun, Festive, Fruity

   Dessert Pizza

Makes 1 13-inch pizza (8-10 servings)

 

Ingredients

CRUST:

  • 3 cups soft pitted dates
  • 2 cups whole almonds
  • 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup Cacao Bliss or raw cacao powder 
  • 1/4 cup raw honey
  • 1/4 cup raw almond butter or raw peanut butter

 

SAUCE:

  • 2 1/2 cups plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • Zest from 1/2 of a lemon

 

TOPPING IDEAS:

  • 1/2 cup sliced strawberries
  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • 1/2 cup blackberries
  • 1/2 cup raspberries
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened shredded coconut

 

Directions

1. Line a pizza pan with parchment paper.

2. Blend dates, almonds, coconut, and cacao powder in a food processor until all is broken down completely.

3. Add the honey and almond butter and blend until a dough consistency forms.

4. Shape the mixture into a ball and press into the pizza pan. Press the “dough” to the edges of the pan.

5. Place the pan in the freezer for 10 minutes. (Wash and slice the fruit while you wait)

6. Mix the vanilla and Greek yogurt together and use a spatula to spread yogurt on the crust.

7. Top the crust with fruit in a circular pattern. Chill until ready to serve. A pizza cutter works well for slicing when you are ready to serve. Enjoy!
