LOW-FAT FRUIT PIZZA
This is a recipe for fruit pizza that I have adapted into a low-fat version. By using low-fat ingredients and fruits that won't brown so you don't have to add a sugary glaze you reduce a lot of fat/calories without sacrificing all the wonderful flavors! (Do not recommend bananas, apples or pears as they will brown feel free to add more than what's listed below.) I tend to double the recipe and make it in a cookie sheet (as shown in the photo). Enjoy!

FRUIT PIZZA EVEN BETTER
Almond extract makes all the difference in this updated version of the traditional fruit pizza. Kiwi makes the topping completely fresh and adds beautiful color. Use low-fat cream cheese for a slightly lighter version. Any clear juice (apple, pear, peach, etc.) may be substituted for the pineapple.

LOW CARB FRUIT PIZZA
Low carb friendly version of a fun summer treat, this is a pretty dish to bring to pot lucks or picnics, it is really a cheesecake with a nut crust. I adapted this from a recipe posted by Bob on low carb site, tried it over July 4th holiday and it was a winner. For the sugar free sweetner, I used a mix of granular Splenda and sugar free French vanilla syrup, which you can find in the coffee aisle of any supermarket.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line a 12-inch pizza pan with parchment paper. 2. In a large bowl, combine the crust ingredients, mixing well. 3. While crust mixture is still warm from the butter, spoon it onto the lined pan and use a piece of plastic wrap to press it evenly over the bottom. Discard the wrap and bake crust 12 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove and let cool 30 minutes. 4. Meanwhile, make the filling by whisking together all filling ingredients. 5. Using a spatula, frost the cooled crust with the filling like a cake. Bake 15 minutes at 350°F. 6. Remove from oven and decorate the warm pizza with the sliced fruit toppings, pushing each piece down slightly to stick. 7. Chill pizza in the fridge for a minimum of 3 hours (or the crust may not hold together) before slicing into 12 thin slices. HELPFUL HINTS The longer you chill the pizza, the better it will slice and hold together; we usually chill it overnight. This pizza may be topped with almost any of your favorite in-season fruits such as blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, peaches, pears, or even figs.
