Notes
Tips For better Greek Yogurt and Fruit Breakfast Pizza
- Opt for a Crunchy Crust: If you want your Greek Yogurt and Fruit Breakfast Pizza to stay neat and tidy, select an extra crispy base— like baked flatbread or whole-grain pita bread—or even try something unusual with pre-baked granola crusts. Your Pizza will not be left out when Yogurt is added.
- Top the Yogurt Organically: A splash of honey, maple syrup, or vanilla extract can sweeten your Greek Yogurt. It brings out the flavours of our natural fruit and contains no refined sugar.
- Full-Fat Greek Yogurt: Whereas we would normally recommend 0% for that, some full-fat yogurt offers a creamier dish and better-tasting palate—it will be covered in fruit anyway on your Greek Yogurt as well as Fruit Morning meal Pizza.
- Sprinkle a little Granola: chopped nuts, or seeds on top of the Yogurt Layer. This is purely for texture and crunch to complement each bite of your Greek Yogurt and fruit Breakfast Pizza.
- Pick Fresh, Ripe Fruits: Choose fresh fruits in season to bring out the natural taste of each ingredient. Berries, kiwis, mangoes, and peaches are colourful toppings.
More Tips For better Greek Yogurt and Fruit Breakfast Pizza
- Thin Slices of Fruit: The thinner the slices of fruit, the easier it is to eat (and spread) your Greek Yogurt and Fruit Breakfast Pizza so that each bite has a bit of everything.
- Your Finisher: A smattering of citrus zest—lemon or orange works well—will lift everything up, both the Yogurt and the fruit.
- Make it a Protein-Packed Breakfast: To feel fuller longer, sprinkle chia seeds, hemp hearts, or slivered almonds on top of your Greek Yogurt and Fruit Breakfast Pizza for an extra protein boost.
- Immediate Service: For the most pliable base with a crispy crust, serve your Pizza as close to assembly time as possible. Also, over time, the Yogurt can make the base slightly softer, so overall, you want to prepare it fresh and then eat it!
- Experiment with Spices: A dash of cinnamon, nutmeg, or even a hint of cardamom can enhance the Yogurt and complement the fruit, bringing unique flavour depth to your Greek Yogurt and Fruit Breakfast Pizza.
