Festive Fruit Pizza

This Festive Fruit Pizza is the perfect addition to any 4th of July celebration. You can’t go wrong with a lemon sugar cookie crust (this crust comes from my Lemon Sugar Cookie recipe) and delicious cream cheese fruit dip. This fruit pizza is seriously divine. Mix it up with whatever fruit you like. I wanted to stick with the red, white and blue theme.

When I was a kid we always had fun celebrating the 4th of July. We had a neighborhood block party with kids games, volleyball, snow cones, and there was always a potluck. This Festive Fruit Pizza is perfect for a pot luck or, family get together, this 4th of July.

In order to get the crust just right you need the right equipment. I always use my favorite pizza pan for the best results. It makes baking this crust a breeze. It is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. In a large bowl sift together flour, baking soda, cream of tarter, and sea salt.
3. In the bowl of a stand mixer with paddle attachment, cream together butter and sugar. Add egg, vanilla, lemon juice and lemon zest. Beat until well combined.
4. Next add flour mixture about a cup at a time, beating well after each addition.

    
5. Line a 14 inch pizza pan with parchment paper. Place dough on the parchment paper and spread it out to the edges.

    
6. Bake for 18 minutes. While it’s baking, with a hand mixer, beat the soften cream cheese in a medium sized bowl. Once it’s well beaten add yogurt and maple syrup and beat until smooth.
7. When the crust is done, take it out and let it cool completely.

    
8. Once cooled, add the fruit dip and spread it evening over the crust. Add your favorite fruit, in this case I used strawberries and blueberries.

Notes

• Try to get the dough spread out as evenly as possible, on your pizza pan, so that it cooks evenly.
