Homemade Sweet Fruit Pizza
Mozzarella

Enjoy a delightful fusion of flavors with this homemade fruit pizza. It features a soft, yeast-raised crust topped with strawberry jam, creamy condensed milk, fresh fruits, and melted mozzarella cheese.

Ingredients

• 500g all-purpose flour
• 3g yeast
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 1 pinch salt
• as needed warm water
• as needed strawberry jam
• as needed condensed milk
• 1 banana, sliced
• 1/2 cup blueberries
• 1/2 dragon fruit, cubed
• as needed shredded mozzarella cheese
• as needed sesame seeds

Instructions

1. 1Prepare the dough base

   

   Place 500g of flour, 3g of yeast, a spoonful of sugar, and a pinch of salt into a large mixing bowl. These ingredients form the foundation for the soft pizza dough.

   Tip: Ensure the yeast is fresh for a better rise.
2. 2Mix the dough

   

   Gradually pour warm water into the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Use chopsticks to stir and mix the components until a soft dough begins to form.

   Tip: Add water slowly to achieve the right dough consistency.
3. 3Knead the dough

   

   Using your hands, knead the dough directly in the bowl until it becomes smooth and soft. Proper kneading develops the gluten for a nice texture.

   Tip: Wear food-safe gloves for hygiene while kneading.
4. 4Roll out the pizza crust

   

   Take a piece of the proofed dough and use a rolling pin to flatten it into a round disk. Aim for a thickness of about 0.5cm for the base.

   Tip: Ensure the thickness is even across the whole crust.
5. 5Form the crust border

   

   Carefully pinch the edges of the rolled-out dough disk. This creates a distinct border that will hold the toppings in place during baking.

   Tip: Pinch firmly to ensure the border maintains its shape.
6. 6Vent the pizza base

   

   After placing the crust into the baking pan, use a fork to prick holes across the entire surface. This prevents the dough from bubbling up excessively during baking.

   Tip: Prick the dough evenly to ensure consistent venting.
7. 7Spread the base layers

   

   Take the pre-baked pizza crust and spread an even layer of strawberry jam across the surface. Follow this by drizzling a little condensed milk over the jam to enhance the milky, sweet flavor profile.

   Tip: Be careful not to spread the jam too close to the pinched edges to prevent it from bubbling over while baking.
8. 8Arrange the fruit toppings

   

   Carefully place your chosen fresh fruits onto the prepared pizza base. In this recipe, we are using slices of fresh banana, blueberries, and cubes of dragon fruit for a colorful and sweet topping combination.

   Tip: Slice the fruits into uniform sizes so they cook evenly in the oven.
9. 9Add the cheese topping

   

   Once the fruit is arranged, generously sprinkle a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese over the entire pizza. The cheese will melt into the fruit and jam, creating a creamy and delicious contrast.

   Tip: You can adjust the amount of cheese based on your preference; more cheese will result in a richer, gooey texture.
10. 10Divide and shape the dough

    

    Take the proofed dough and knead it gently to release any trapped air. Roll the dough into a long, uniform log shape on your work surface. Use a bench scraper or knife to cut the log into equal-sized portions, which will form the base for your individual fruit pizzas.

    Tip: Keep the pieces uniform in size to ensure they proof and bake evenly.
