GRILLED FRUIT PIZZAS

Steps:

• For the cookie crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, cream the granulated sugar, butter, vanilla and lemon and lime zests thoroughly. Add the eggs and beat until light and fluffy. Add the milk and mix. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Blend the flour mixture into the butter and sugar mixture. Divide the dough in half, flatten into discs and wrap with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 hour or freeze for 20 minutes.
• Roll out the 2 pieces of dough and put each one on a baking sheet. Bake until the cookie dough is cooked and golden brown but not overly crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
• For the topping: Using a mixer with the whisk attachment, whip together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla and lemon zest in a medium bowl until light and fluffy.
• For the apple jelly glaze: Mix the apple jelly and 3 tablespoons water together in a bowl.
• For the grilled fruit: Heat a grill pan to medium-high heat and oil with the coconut oil. Thread the strawberries, kiwis, peaches and pineapple slices separately onto skewers (there should be about 2 skewers per type of fruit) and lay them onto a plate. Brush with apple jelly glaze. Turn the skewers over and brush the other side with more glaze.
• Grill the fruit, turning once, until grill marks appear, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the fruit from the skewers, placing each type of fruit into individual bowls.
• Serve the cooled crusts with the cream cheese topping, bowls of grilled fruit and the remaining apple jelly glaze. Let everyone build their own pizza by spreading the topping onto the crust, decorating with as much fruit as desired and finishing with a final brushing of apple jelly glaze for gloss!

GRILLED DESSERT PIZZA

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high heat. Try to get it as hot as possible (500 degrees F). Stretch the pizza dough to fit a baking sheet. Brush the grill and the dough with oil. Slide and flip the pizza dough oil-side down directly on the grill. Grill until the crust is cooked through and golden, 2 to 3 minutes per side, oiling the other side of the dough before flipping.
• Remove the pizza dough from the grill and, while it is still hot, spread on the chocolate-hazelnut spread, leaving a 1/2-inch border for the crust. Top with coconut, bananas, nuts and dried fruit. Cut into squares and serve immediately.

GRILLED FRUIT PIZZA

Steps:

• Set up grill for direct cooking over medium heat. Oil grate when ready to start cooking.
• In a mixing bowl, combine softened butter, cream cheese, sugar, and almond extract. Beat with hand mixer on low speed until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
• Combine honey and water in a small bowl. Stir until honey is dissolved. Set aside.
• Unroll pizza dough onto hot oiled grill. Cook for 4 minutes on each side. (TIP: use a cookie sheet as a big spatula when flipping the crust and removing from grill.) Brush with honey mixture and cook for 2 minutes more. Remove crust from grill. Spread with cream cheese mixture and arrange fruit on top.
• INDOOR: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly spray baking sheet with cooking spray; set aside. Carefully unroll dough and place on prepared baking sheet. Press out dough with fingers to form 13 by 9-inch rectangle. Brush dough with honey mixture and bake in preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until crust turns golden brown. Remove crust from oven and top as directed.
