Description

This Watermelon Pizza recipe is a refreshing and visually appealing summer dessert featuring thick watermelon slices topped with freshly whipped cream and a colorful assortment of fruits. Perfect for hot days, it combines juicy watermelon with fluffy vanilla-scented whipped cream and vibrant fruit toppings, making it a delightful treat that’s both light and satisfying.


Ingredients

Scale

Watermelon Base

  • 1 seedless watermelon

Whipped Cream Topping

  • 1 cup (237ml) heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons (14g) powdered sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Fruit Toppings

  • Assorted fruits (such as berries, kiwi, grapes, or mango), for topping


Instructions

  1. Slice the Watermelon: Start by cutting off one end of the seedless watermelon to create a flat base, then slice the watermelon into 1-2 inch thick rounds. The number of slices will vary depending on the size of the watermelon.
  2. Prepare the Whipped Cream: In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. This will create a light, fluffy, and sweet whipped cream to spread over the watermelon slices.
  3. Assemble the Watermelon Pizza: Spread the whipped cream evenly over each watermelon slice, acting as a ‘pizza sauce’ base.
  4. Add Fruit Toppings: Decorate the whipped cream-topped watermelon slices with your choice of assorted fresh fruits, arranging them in a colorful and attractive way.
  5. Serve Promptly: Serve the watermelon pizzas within 4 hours of preparation to ensure freshness and prevent the whipped cream from melting onto the watermelon.

Notes

  • This fruit pizza is an easy and healthy summer dessert option that requires no baking or complicated prep.
  • Use a variety of fresh, vibrant fruits for toppings to make each slice visually appealing and flavorful.
  • It is best consumed within 4 hours to maintain the texture of the whipped cream and freshness of the fruits.
  • For a lighter version, you can substitute the heavy cream with a whipped coconut cream to make it dairy-free and vegan.
