FRUITED CHEESE PIZZA
I know I got this recipe from either Gourmet or Bon Appetit maybe 15-20 years or so ago. It has become a summer fixture in my home. Always impressive and delicious. The fruit in the ingredients list is what the recipe listed, but I have happily subbed all kinds of fresh (and tinned) fruit over the years.

- Combine 2 ½ cups flour, ¼ cup sugar and salt in another large bowl.
- Make well in center.
- Add yeast mixture, butter and eggs to well and blend until smooth.
- Gradually draw flour from inner edge of well into center until all flour is incorporated.
- Turn out onto work surface, which you have floured with some of the remaining ½ cup flour.
- Knead in whatever flour is left, then continue kneading until dough is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
- Add dough to prepared bowl, turning to coat surface of dough with butter.
- Let rise in warm, draft-free area until doubled in volume, about 1 ¾ hours.
- Butter a 16 inch pizza pan.
- Punch dough down.
- Roll out to circle ¼ to 1/8 inch thick.
- Fit into pan, pressing onto sides.
- Let dough rise in warm area until puffy, about 20 minutes.
- Position rack in lower third of oven and preheat to 350F.
- For topping: Beat cheese, ½ cup sugar, yolks, flour, sour cream, peel, vanilla, salt and spices until smooth.
- Spoon into unbaked shell, spreading evenly.
- Sprinkle with 2 tblsps of sugar.
- Bake until crust is browned and filling is set, about 35 minutes.
- Cool completely in pan.
- Decorate with fruit.
- Use your imagination to make an attractive pattern of contrasting colours.
- Brush generously with melted jam (you may not need whole amount – not to worry, jam will rethicken as it cools and is great on buttered toast!).

n@gmail.comThe flavor of this pizza was great, but the crust was a bit too soft for my liking. I think I'll try making it with a different type of flour next time, like whole wheat flour.

robin@hotmail.comThis pizza was a bit too cheesy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a stronger type of cheese. Next time, I'll use a milder cheese, like mozzarella.
