THE BEST FRESH FRUIT BREAKFAST RECIPE

Pizza for breakfast? Yes please! Especially when it’s a healthy pizza that you can make in just 30 minutes.

My kiddos are big fruit monsters so we always have fresh fruit around the house. Now that berries are in season again, we couldn’t help tossing a bunch into this breakfast fruit pizza a few weeks ago.

Plus with Mother’s Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July and all the other summer events coming up soon, this gluten free fruit pizza would make a great addition to the breakfast, brunch or dessert table.


Our Healthy Fruit Pizza is made with just a few simple ingredients you probably already have. The crust is gluten free, dairy free and refined sugar free. Oats, oat flour (almond flour would work as well) coconut oil and honey.

The best part about this fruit pizza is that you can customize it with your favorite toppings and fruit. If you’re trying to keep this dairy free, you can use non-dairy yogurt or even coconut whipped cream which is amazing as well.

CAN I HAVE FRUIT PIZZA IF I AM GLUTEN FREE OR KETO?

Typical fruit pizzas are made with a sugar cookie dough crust but our recipe uses a combination of gluten free oats and oat flour (and the option to use coconut flakes and almond flour for keto) so they are absolutely okay if you are following a gluten free diet.

INGREDIENTS YOU NEED:

  • coconut oil
  • vanilla
  • cinnamon
  • salt

HOW TO MAKE HEALTHY FRUIT PIZZA:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 F.

  2. Grease a 10-inch cake pan with baking spray or line with parchment paper and set aside.

  3. MAKE THE CRUST: In a large bowl, combine oats, oat flour, cinnamon, vanilla,and salt together. Add the honey and coconut oil and mix until dough is combined and sticks together. Use your hands or a fork as needed.

  4. Spread the mixture into prepared pan and press down firmly with a spatula or the bottom of a glass cup.

  5. BAKE CRUST: Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely (place in the refrigerator or freezer to cool faster).

  6. MAKE THE CREAM TOPPING: Meanwhile, in a medium mixing bowl, combine yogurt with honey and vanilla. Use an offset spatula to spread yogurt over cooled crust.

  7. DECORATE: Arrange fresh berries. Enjoy immediately or place in the fridge to cool and set.

SUGGESTED TOPPINGS FOR FRESH FRUIT PIZZA:

For the fruit toppings, I chose to decorate this version with:

  • blackberries
  • raspberries
  • mandarin oranges (leave out for keto)
  • kiwi (leave out for keto)
  • strawberries
  • blueberries

But I think mango, grapes, pineapple or even some sliced bananas would be great as well!

I also made a Red, White and Blue version HERE which I think would be perfect for Memorial Day and the Fourth of July!

This granola fruit pizza would make an easy and healthy breakfast or a fun dessert for any spring or summer party!

MAKE AHEAD TIPS FOR THE GRANOLA CRUST:

  • Make the granola crust the night before, and then layer with yogurt and fruit in the morning. Be sure to buy [amazon_textlink asin=’B01FUI7GNK’ text=’gluten free oats’ template=’ProductLink’ store=’lifmadswe09-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’5a76ff10-90ad-11e8-ab75-0973249fce08′] if you need a gluten free fruit pizza.
  • Buy the fruit pre-chopped to save time. Or get yourself a [amazon_textlink asin=’B06ZZ2HQ4M’ text=’fresh fruit slicer’ template=’ProductLink’ store=’lifmadswe09-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’887c4ef2-90ad-11e8-b6d5-9ddbe76bcd65′]!
  • Get your kids to help you layer the yogurt and fruit! They’ll have fun being hands-on, and you can get another task done in the meantime.

EASY FRUIT PIZZA VARIATIONS

Here are a few other fun ways to change up your fruit pizza:

  • Cookie: You can try using a keto chocolate chip or chocolate cookie dough crust
  • Frosting: Instead of a yogurt topping, you can also top it with a sugar-free cream cheese or buttercream frosting instead.
