Easy Fruit Pizza

08/12/2016 By Bre

12 Aug

We have been away on vacation and enjoying our time at the beach. We will resume with the farmhouse Friday tours next week, but for now enjoy this easy summer dessert that is a house favorite.

I think anytime I see the word “easy” in front of a recipe, I always go for that one first. I would consider myself a moderately experienced cook/baker. I’m not too afraid of tackling a new recipe or something unfamiliar. Most importantly I like trying new things. However let’s just be real here, mom to mom, when I’m cooking in the kitchen, there really isn’t a whole lot of time to get my Julia Child on, when it says easy, and I have maybe 20 minutes, you’ve got my attention.

I have been making this fruit pizza for almost 10 years now, it was one of the first recipes I “tweaked” due to my lack of experience back when I was a new wife with little kitchen experience. Also, back then I was never really a fan of pie crusts, that wasn’t until two years ago when I decided for the love of baked goods I would finally make a crust from scratch, I will never go pack, never! But in this instance, I did not like pie crusts, and packaged, store bought ones were my friend. So today I’m sharing with you my version of the world’s easiest Fruit Pizza, birthed in my very first apartment kitchen! I know there are a lot of versions out there, but I promise you my 3 yr old could make this, if I let her touch the oven 🙂 First things first, to make a fruit pizza, you need a crust, and typically it’s a pie crust. Insert my first “tweak”, remove so-called pie crust and replace with sugar cookies.

Now I have made this always before, pre-made cutouts, pre-made roll, homemade dough. Nothing is easier than the pre-made cutouts. I line my cookie sheet with foil, and place them in tight rows, because as it bakes I don’t want there to be any gaps in between the cookies,
so it will form a solid crust for the bottom.

 

I bake my cookies per package instructions, and usually add 1-2 mins to the time, because when they are touching they take a little longer to bake. While my cookies, I mean crust, is baking I slice up any fruit that needs to be cut. You can add any fruit you want to make it completely your own taste, but I said this was easy fruit pizza, so I’m using the quickest to prep fruit for mine today.

Blueberries

Grapes

Tangerines

 

Once your crust is done, allow it to cool before the next step.
I then remove my crust from foil and place on desired serving tray, this step is not needed, but always makes for a prettier presentation.
Once cooled, I frost my entire crust with Strawberry cream cheese.

 

“Tweak” #2. I was not a fan of the gelatin that most recipes called for, or having to mix up anything.
Again, I wanted simple, quick and easy.
So I went for something I liked. My favorite is cream cheese frosting, and what’s better than strawberry cream cheese. It’s like frosting, but already flavored and sweet!

 

Once I have “frosted” my crust, I begin to top with fruit. There are many different ways you can decorate the top of your fruit pizza, for some reason diagonal lines has always stuck for me.

 

Once you are finished, refrigerate until you are ready to serve.
Ingredients :
1 Package of pre-made Sugar Cookie
~
1 Package of strawberry cream cheese
~
1 Package of Fresh Strawberries
~
1 Package of Fresh Blueberries
~
1 bunch of Green Grapes
~
1 sm. can of Tangerines

 

Every time I serve this dessert, people are always going back for seconds. It’s light, and fresh, but still satisfies that sweet tooth! I hope you enjoyed this easy Fruit Pizza, and I know you will enjoy it once you make it!

    How is it served— can you cut into the cookie base with a knife? Does it break apart? Looks so colorful and yummy!
