Ingredients
- 1 large watermelon
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 cup mixed berries
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional)
Instructions
- Carefully wash the watermelon and pat it dry with clean paper towels.
- Using a large sharp knife, slice the watermelon horizontally into a round disk about 1-2 inches thick, creating a circular "pizza" base.
- Place the watermelon disk on a large serving platter or cutting board.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt and honey, whisking until smooth and well integrated.
- Spread the yogurt-honey mixture evenly across the top surface of the watermelon disk, creating a creamy "sauce" layer similar to pizza base.
- Carefully wash and pat dry the mixed berries to remove any excess moisture.
- Artfully arrange the mixed berries across the yogurt surface, creating a colorful and decorative pattern.
- If desired, sprinkle shredded coconut over the berries for additional texture and flavor.
- Chill the watermelon fruit pizza in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to allow flavors to meld and yogurt to set slightly.
- Just before serving, slice the watermelon pizza into wedges like a traditional pizza.
- Serve immediately and enjoy this refreshing, healthy dessert.
Tips
- Choose a ripe, firm watermelon with a deep green color and a yellow spot where it sat on the ground.
- Use a sharp, large knife to ensure a clean, even cut for your "pizza" base.
- Pat all ingredients completely dry to prevent a watery topping.
- For the most beautiful presentation, arrange berries in a symmetrical, colorful pattern.
- Chill the watermelon pizza briefly before serving to help the yogurt set and enhance the flavors.
- For extra flair, you can experiment with different toppings like mint leaves, sliced almonds, or a drizzle of additional honey.
- Serve immediately after preparation to maintain the best texture and freshness.
