Fruit Pizza {Two Ways}

Fruit Pizza is a fantastic dessert that packs a ton of flavor. I am so excited to share two very different ways to enjoy it with a beautiful Rainbow Fruit Pizza and Honey Glazed Fruit Pizza. If you happen to love fruit desserts try my Apple Crisp and One Bowl Chocolate Fruit Cake!

What Goes on Fruit Pizza?

Simply put, any fruit that you love or that is in season! During the holidays we love to change things up a bit and make all red & green or all pink and purple fruits for Valentine’s Day.

I started by chopping strawberries into slices. I did not use the small end pieces, I just created a snack bowl for the kids with those.

The clementines were peeled and separated, then I was on to kiwi. I peeled them, sliced in half the long way, then into half-moon shapes.

The blueberries and blackberries were the easiest, as I just washed and then placed on the pizza.

You could add pineapple for the yellow or even banana, but banana browns quickly so you will want to serve immediately.

I decided to add a special twist to the traditional Fruit Pizza and made my sugar cookie base DOUBLE thick. (Simply by doubling the recipe below) It’s almost like a slice of cake! You could also double the cream cheese filling if you wanted but be prepared for some messy kid fingers. 😉

While the kids ooohed and aahed over the Rainbow Fruit Pizza, the Honey Glazed Fruit Pizza was my favorite.

How to Make the Honey Glazed Fruit Pizza

1/4 cup honey

Simply wash the fruit, then cut into whatever shape you want. I quartered the strawberries, peeled and separated the clementine’s, peeled the kiwi and cut into half-moon shapes, and then just washed the blueberries and blackberries.

Not only was the fruit gorgeous, but so flavorful! I couldn’t help myself and was sneaking bites while preparing the pizza.

The next step is my favorite as you really get to see all that glorious fruit come to life.

I added about 1/4 cup of honey to all the fruit in a bowl and gently stirred. Then I simply poured the fruit over the baked and frosted sugar cookie. I recommend serving immediately, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for a couple of hours if needed.

This pizza crust was much thinner but just as lovely. All that glistening fruit really makes your mouth water!

I have to tell you, this is an amazing sugar cookie recipe. Feel free to save it and keep for your upcoming fall baking and Christmas cookies!
