As always when it comes to fruit pizza, the shape, colors and decor style of your fruit pizza are all 100% up to you. You can choose to either bake yours in a quarter sheet pan, a 9 x 13-inch baking dish, or a 12-inch round pizza pan. You can use whatever types of colorful fruit sound good to you.

*Pressing The Dough: It might help to chill the dough for 10 minutes before pressing it into the pan. I also wet my fingers periodically with water to keep the dough from sticking to my fingers.Easy no chill sugar cookie dough, fluffy cream cheese topping, and piles of fresh fruit toppings make this Fruit Pizza a smash hit for any occasion.
I think Fruit Pizza might be magic food. It is beautiful and whimsical and insanely delicious. I mean you are taking a sugar cookie, frosting it with a really good cream cheese frosting and then loading it up with lovely fresh fruit so yes – DELICIOUS. If unicorns existed they would probably eat fruit pizza every day. (Not that I’m saying unicorns don’t exist – really I have no proof either way!)
A lot of fruit pizza recipes call for a sugar cookie mix but there are no mixes on the market that taste like a yummy homemade sugar cookie. And of course if the cookie is not amazing the pizza is not amazing.

I did some experimenting and converted my simple no chill sugar cookie recipe and it makes an excellent crust. The flavor is to die for and slathering it with the cream cheese sauce just sends me to my happy “unicorns are real” place.
Fruit pizza is one of those recipes perfect for riffing! Springtime? Bring on the strawberries! Stone fruit is in season? Peaches and plums it is! Fall? Apples, pears and a drizzle of easy caramel sauce!
I will also note you don’t usually see melons on fruit pizza. It is one of the few fruits that I don’t think goes well with the cream cheese and sugar cookie aesthetic.
Fresh Fruit Pizza
Fruit pizza is simple to prepare but if you are making it for a holiday like Easter it is nice to be able to prep ahead of time. I don’t recommend making the entire fruit pizza the day before because it does get soggy and less fresh over time.
You can make a great fruit pizza with the tools you already have in your kitchen. I bake a lot so I like using an off set frosting spatula like this one to spread the cream cheese mixture unto the crust. If you do a lot of baking consider investing in one of these.
I also use a 12″ pizza pan like this to bake the sugar cookie crust. USA Bakeware makes wonderful high quality pans. However, you could also use a different shape of baking dish.
Sugar Cookie Flag Fruit Pizza
Fruit pizza doesn’t need a glaze. It is delicious and beautiful without one. But if you enjoy that lovely glazed shine by all means glaze away! And a glaze will help prevent browning if you are using fruits like apples and bananas that brown quickly.
To make a fruit pizza glaze take a half cup of your favorite seedless jam or jelly and microwave it for a few seconds until it is thin and runny. Brush the jam over the fruit with a pastry brush for a lovely, shiny glaze! The best jellies for glaze are apricot and apple. I also think raspberry is wonderful if you have seedless or strain the seeds out but it will be a dark red glaze – better for berry fruit pizzas.

How to Measure Flour: Too much or too little flour makes bad sugar cookie crust! The correct way to measure flour is to spoon it into the measuring cup and then use the flat edge of a knife to level the cup. This ensures exact measuring.
Saving Dough For Later: You can wrap the dough tightly and refrigerate it for a day. To make the pizza knead the dough a bit until it becomes softer or allow it to come up in temperature by leaving it on the counter for about 20 minutes.
How to Glaze Fruit Pizza (Optional): To make a fruit pizza glaze take a half cup of your favorite seedless jam or jelly and microwave it for a few seconds until it is thin and runny. Brush the jam over the fruit with a pastry brush for a lovely, shiny glaze! The best jellies for glaze are apricot and apple. I also think raspberry is wonderful if you have seedless or strain the seeds out but it will be a dark red glaze - better for berry fruit pizzas.

Easy Fruit Pizza (with A Pizza Crust!)
This is the best fruit pizza for all special occasions such as a summer baby shower, BBQ’s, Easter, and Mother’s Day Brunch and Father’s Day Cookouts! Whatever the occasion is , this dessert pizza is great for a crowd!
A store bought puff pastry makes baking this dessert super simple. Also a nice alternative to this fruit pizza is that it doesn’t use cream cheese icing. Lemon curd with a sweet layer of strawberry jam is the hero here and then it’s topped with a variety of fruit!
If lemon curd and strawberry jam aren’t your thing, you can also use coconut yogurt or pudding mix. Or layer the lemon curd with a creamy frosting like cool whip or marshmallow creme.

For best results, consume the fruit pizza the same day. You can store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
Wait to frost the puff pastry until you are ready to serve it. Serving it fresh will help with any soggy crusts.
My dessert pizza recipe was inspired by all the variety of fruits that are available in summer. I found myself with lots of berries and it was time to create a delicious recipe!

I enjoy fruit pizza but I don’t always like dairy toppings. Lemon curd is one of my faves so this seemed like the perfect combination. As I originally tried to make my own sugar cookie dough, I had some mishaps and ended up using puff pastry. This makes a wonderful fresh fruit pizza.
Only simple ingredients are used in this fruit pizza recipe and I love that the only prep is washing and cutting the fruit.
