Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter, softened
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 190 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 225 grams Cream cheese, softened
- 60 grams Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 250 grams Assorted fresh fruits (e.g., strawberries, kiwi, blueberries, grapes, mandarin oranges)
- 60 ml Orange juice
- 30 grams Granulated sugar (for glaze)
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line a 12-inch pizza pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, and mix until combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
Press the dough evenly onto the prepared pizza pan, creating an even layer. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let the crust cool completely before proceeding.
In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Spread this mixture evenly over the cooled crust.
Prepare your fruits by washing, peeling (if necessary), and slicing them into bite-sized pieces. Arrange the fruits on top of the cream cheese layer in a decorative pattern.
To make the orange glaze, combine the orange juice, granulated sugar, and cornstarch in a small saucepan. Add water and whisk until smooth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and becomes glossy (about 2-3 minutes). Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Using a pastry brush or spoon, gently spread the orange glaze over the arranged fruits to give them a shiny appearance and to lock in their freshness.
Place the fruit pizza in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to chill before serving.
Slice into wedges and serve chilled. Enjoy your refreshing Fruit Pizza with Orange Glaze!
