Description
A gluten-free fruit dessert pizza with a no-bake crust of couscous, olive oil, and honey. Topped with refreshing fresh fruits in vibrant patterns, it balances sweet and tangy flavors perfectly. Ideal for summer gatherings or a quick, oven-free treat.
Ingredients
2 cups couscous
2 tablespoons olive oil
8 oz cream cheese (or full-fat Greek yogurt)
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon lemon zest
4 cups assorted fresh fruits (e.g., peaches, berries, watermelon)
Instructions
Combine couscous with hot water until absorbed
Add olive oil and mix into a thick dough
Press dough evenly into a 14-inch parchment-lined pan
Chill crust in refrigerator for 15 minutes
Poke holes in the crust with a fork
Beat cream cheese with honey and lemon zest until smooth
Spread mixture across chilled crust
Slice and arrange fruits in overlapping patterns
Notes
Swap couscous for gluten-free variety if necessary
Use avocado oil instead of olive oil for a richer flavor
Greek yogurt makes a lower-fat filling option
Cut fruits into 1-inch wedges for consistency
Summer produce like peaches and watermelon pairs best
Store in refrigerator for up to 4 hours before serving
