Fruit Pizza
One of my favorite snacks from my childhood was Fruit Pizza. My mom ran a nutrition program and it was one of the recipes for her providers. In a perfect world more than strawberries would be available but thats all I found at the store this week
Crust:
- 1 c unsalted butter at room temp
- 2/3 c powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp almond extract (you'll find I put it in everything)
- 1 c unbleached flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
Topping
- 1 6oz package cream cheese softened
- 1 tub of yoplait yogurt (I usualy use mixed berry but you can mix it up with other flavors)
Cream together butter and sugar until smooth. Add in extracts a pinch of salt and the flours. Dough should be slightly crumbly. Press into a tart pan or roll out on a pizza tin (it makes two tart sized crusts). Cook at 325 for 14 minutes.
Cream together cream cheese and yogurt. Spread over the crust once cooled or as you eat it. Arrange the fruit on the top, since it is a pizza and not a tart I like to toss the fruit on instead of maticulously arranging it.
