Watermelon Pizza with Cream Cheese and Fresh Berries Recipe

Introduction

Watermelon pizza is a refreshing and visually stunning treat perfect for hot days or any time you want a healthy dessert. Using a thick slice of watermelon as the base, it’s topped with a creamy, sweet mixture and fresh berries for a burst of flavor.

Ingredients

• 1 slice Watermelon (a round disc, 1 inch thick)
• 3 tbsp Cream cheese (softened, cut into cubes)
• 3 tbsp Heavy cream
• 1/4 cup Besti Powdered Monk Fruit Allulose Blend (to taste)
• 2 tsp Lemon juice
• 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup Blueberries
• 1/2 cup Raspberries
• Fresh mint (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

1. Step 1: Slice the watermelon at its thickest part into a 1-inch-thick round disc. Set aside the rest of the watermelon for another use.
2. Step 2: In a blender, combine the cream cheese, heavy cream, powdered sweetener, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and adjust sweetness to your preference.
3. Step 3: Spread, drizzle, or pipe the cream mixture evenly over the watermelon slice. Arrange the blueberries and raspberries on top, and garnish with fresh mint if desired.
4. Step 4: Cut the watermelon “pizza” into 8 slices and serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.

Tips & Variations

• For a dairy-free option, substitute cream cheese and heavy cream with coconut yogurt and coconut cream.
• Try adding other fresh fruits like kiwi or strawberries for extra color and taste.
• Use a piping bag to create decorative designs with the cream mixture for a fancy presentation.

Storage

Watermelon pizza is best enjoyed fresh. If needed, store leftovers covered in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day. Keep in mind the watermelon may become watery and the cream mixture could lose its texture. Reheat is not recommended.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I prepare watermelon pizza in advance?

It’s best to assemble the watermelon pizza just before serving to maintain the freshness of the fruit and texture of the cream topping.

What can I use if I don’t have Besti Powdered Monk Fruit Allulose Blend?

You can substitute with powdered sugar, regular sugar, or another low-calorie sweetener of choice, adjusting the amount to taste.
