Holy Petunias! It’s A Deep Dish Fruit Pizza Recipe :)

This deep dish fruit pizza is super simple to put together. You’ll be so glad that you made this tasty treat 🙂

Check out what my pals over at The Pioneer Woman had to say about this recipe:

“This is one of those fun, throw-together treats that’s perfect for everything from a slumber party to a baby shower. Change up the fruit you use, the configuration of the design…just have fun with it, man!”

I had a ton of fun with this recipe and so did my kids as they helped me put it all together.

Ingredients

1-1/3 cup Crisco Shortening (may Substitute Butter)

1-1/2 cup Domino Sugar

1 teaspoon Orange Zest

1 teaspoon McCormick Vanilla

2 whole Eggland’s Best Eggs

8 teaspoons TruMoo Whole Milk

4 cups Gold Medal All-purpose Flour

3 teaspoons Clabber Girl Baking Powder

1/2 teaspoon Morton Salt

2 jars (13 Ounces Each) Jet-Puffed Marshmallow Creme

2 packages (8 Ounces Each) Philadelphia Cream Cheese

Peaches

Kiwi Fruit

Blueberries

Pears

Raspberries

Other Fruit Optional

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 F.

In a large bowl, cream shortening (or butter), sugar, orange peel and vanilla thoroughly. Add in eggs and beat until light and fluffy. Add in the milk and mix.

In a medium-sized bowl, sift together the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder and salt), then blend this into the cream mixture. Slightly flatten between two sheets of waxed paper, then refrigerate for one hour (or freeze for 20 minutes).

Press dough into a sheet cake pan OR divide the dough in half and roll each half into a large round, then transfer to pizza pans.

Bake for 12-15 minutes until cookie dough is cooked and golden brown, but not overly crisp. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.

Using a mixer with a whisk attachment, whip together Marshmallow Creme and cream cheese until light. Spread onto cooled “pizza” crust, then decorate the top generously with sliced fruit. Slice into squares or wedges and serve.
