This fun and colorful fruit pizza features a soft almond flour cookie base, blue spirulina cream cheese frosting, and fresh fruit sea creatures—perfect for summer!


Ingredients

Units Scale

Cookie Base:

3 cups Almond Flour

3/4 cup Maple Syrup

Pinch of Salt

Cream Cheese Frosting:

8 oz. Cream Cheese

1 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar

1/2 tsp Vanilla

Pinch of Salt

1/2 tsp Blue Spirulina

1 cup Toasted Coconut (for the sand)

For the Sea Creatures:

Kiwi

Grapes

Strawberries

Blueberries


Instructions

  1. Preheat The Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F
  2. Make The Cookie Base: Add your almond flour, maple syrup, and salt to a large bowl. Mix until everything is combined.
  3. Form The Cookie: Form the cookie dough into a ball and place it between two large sheets of parchment paper on a large cookie sheet. Roll the dough out into a large oval until it’s about 1/4 inch thick.
  4. Bake The Cookie: Bake the cookie for 15-20 minutes until it passes the toothpick test and doesn’t jiggle (the edges will start to turn golden brown). Remove the cookie from the oven and let it cool completely.
  5. Make The Frosting: Add the cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt to a stand mixer with a whisk attachment and mix until everything is completely combined. Place 1/4 cup of the frosting in a small bowl and set aside. Mix the blue spirulina into the remaining frosting until it’s combined and the frosting is blue in color.
  6. Frost the Cookie: Add the white frosting to the bottom 1/4 of the cookie and cover in toasted coconut to make the beach sand. Add the blue frosting to the remaining unfrosted part of the cookie.
  7. Add The Sea Creatures and Details: Cut the kiwi into disks and place on the cookie. Use one whole grape as the head, 1/4 of a grape for each foot, and 1/8 and a grape for the tail. Repeat for as many turtles as you’d like. Cut the strawberries into sections (as pictured)  and create the lobster. Fill the remaining blue section of the cookie with blueberries and any other fruit of your choice.

Notes

*NOTE: Since this recipe uses cream cheese, it does need to be stored in the refrigerator.
