Ingredients
  

1 large pre-baked pizza crust (store-bought or homemade)

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

2 cups assorted fresh fruits (e.g., strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, banana, and grapes)

1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional)

1/4 cup granola (optional, for crunch)

Mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: Lay the pre-baked pizza crust on a large cutting board or pizza tray. If you're using a homemade crust, make sure it’s completely cooled after baking.

    Make the Cream Cheese Spread: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Use an electric mixer or a whisk to blend until smooth and creamy.

      Add Greek Yogurt: Gently fold in the Greek yogurt into the cream cheese mixture until well combined to create a creamy, tangy base for your pizza.

        Spread the Mixture: Evenly spread the cream cheese and yogurt mixture across the pizza crust, smoothing it out with a spatula so it covers the surface completely.

          Prep the Fruits: While you allow the spread to chill slightly, wash and slice the assorted fresh fruits into bite-sized pieces. Arrange them artistically on top of the yogurt spread, mixing colors and shapes for visual appeal.

            Add Optional Toppings: If desired, sprinkle shredded coconut and granola over the fruits for added texture and flavor. It’s great for a little extra crunch.

              Chill and Serve: For the best flavor and texture, refrigerate the fruit pizza for at least 15 minutes before slicing. Once chilled, garnish with fresh mint leaves if using, then slice into wedges and serve.

                Enjoy this delightful and refreshing Speedy Fruit Pizza as a perfect treat for gatherings or as a healthy dessert option!
