It’s easy to make and only takes around 10 minutes so let’s make it!

Ingredients to Make a Watermelon Fruit Pizza

The ingredients to this Watermelon Fruit Pizza Recipe are so simple! All you need is a whole watermelon, beautiful fresh fruit of your choice – I chose cherries, strawberries, blueberries and raspberries.

Additionally you will need yogurt and dried coconut.

All of the ingredients are creative and can be modified to your tastes. I have a lot of ideas at the end of the blog – like including all your favorite fruit, using your favorite type of yogurt, adding chocolate and more!

This recipe can be completely creative based on your tastes.

How to Slice the Watermelon

To make this Watermelon Fruit Pizza, you must use a whole watermelon so you can cut the pieces into the perfect pizza like shape!

First slice through the watermelon on its shorter side. Then cut it again on its shorter side to make a 2-3 inch thick slice. And place the watermelon on a dish to decorate it.

Spread with Yogurt

Next, spread a thick layer of yogurt along the watermelon. Just spread the yogurt along the fruit leaving the green exposed so it can mimic the pizza crust.

You can use your favorite flavor of yogurt, but you will definitely want one that’s white in color like plain yogurt or vanilla yogurt. Just be sure to add enough the the fruit can gently rest in the yogurt without moving.

How to Slice the Fruit Toppings

Next, top the yogurt with additional fruit. The more beautiful the fruit the better. I chose cherries, raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries.

For larger fruit, slice them in the prettiest way possible. The cherries will need to be deseeded and the raspberries and strawberries will hold to the yogurt better if you slice them in half.

Additional Toppings

After you add the fruit, sprinkle the top with a layer of dried coconut. I added some edible flowers just for effect. But you could add so many different ingredients. I made a list below, because this recipe can be so creative!

How to Serve a Watermelon Fruit Pizza

Watermelon Pizza, when made the traditional way, is healthy, light, and perfect for kids! It makes a great addition to any brunch. It can also make a great dessert. It’s party perfect because it’s so pretty.

As you know, watermelon can be juicy and messy. So this is a great recipe to make when you are eating outdoors. If you are eating them indoors, serve them on plates with plenty of paper napkins handy!

You may want to pair your Watermelon Pizza with a healthy protein like this Baja Avocado Toast. Or if you want to make a brunch that’s Instagram worthy, try including these Layered Iced Coffee Popsicles.

If you like light meals and use a lot of yogurt, you could serve this as a meal, but I think it’s best paired with something special.

How to Store a Watermelon Fruit Pizza

Watermelon Fruit Pizza is best served fresh so if you have to store it, it’s best storing the pieces individually.

If you store the pizza already made, it won’t keep long. It’s best the same day but may be okay the next day. Store it an an air tight container in the fridge.
