Ingredients
Watermelon is, of course, the star ingredient for this recipe. But without the other ingredients that make this tasty treat, it wouldn’t be complete.
Here’s what you’ll need:
- 1 whole Seedless Watermelon
- Fresh Berries (kiwi, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries)
- Chocolate Chips
- 1 cup of greek yogurt
- ¼ softened cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons of honey
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
1. Slicing the Watermelon
With a sharp knife, start by cutting off the top and bottom of the watermelon by half an inch.
However, if you don’t want to use the whole watermelon fruit, you may start by slicing it in half.
The remaining half can then be kept in the refrigerator. Cut the watermelon into a big, round slice after cutting it in half.
2. Mixing the Ingredients
In a bowl, mix your greek yogurt, softened cream cheese, and honey. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until combined.
3. Preparing the Watermelon Pizza
Get your big, round slice of seedless watermelon and spread a generous amount of the combined wet ingredients onto the watermelon, acting as the sauce for the watermelon pizza.
After spreading, get your favorite fresh fruits or fresh berries – sliced strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, and kiwi – and chocolate chips, and add them to the watermelon pizza.
4. Garnish and Serve
Garnish with fresh mint leaves, and slice the watermelon pizza into six-sharing pieces (like pizza slices) for you to enjoy with your friends and family.
Final Thoughts
The key to this fruit pizza recipe’s success is selecting the best watermelon. Watermelons form a patch when they lay on the ground, so look for the yellow spot.
It is ripe when this patch becomes a creamy golden color. A ripe watermelon will have a loud hollow sound when tapped beneath. This denotes optimal ripeness and juiciness.
Most cuisine dishes may use watermelon, particularly any kind of salad like the well-known fruit salad.
A fruit pizza made with watermelon is the ideal summer dessert! It has the watermelon taste that we all want on a hot day and is light and energizing.
It’s easy and quick to make, gluten-free, and you don’t even need to turn on the oven!
