Ingredients
Here is a list of the ingredients used to make our Limeade Fruit Pizza. As always, there is a detailed list at the bottom of this recipe.
- Almond flour– this is a great flour for low carb baking
- Sweetener– for keto and low carb options use monkfruit or swerve. If you are not concerned with carbs regular sugar is fine.
- Butter– melted
- Cream cheese– room temperature
- Confectioners Monkfruit Sweetener– this is a great keto powdered sugar
- Heavy cream, Almond milk and Vanilla
- Strawberries and limes
Instructions
- Combine the melted butter, almond flour, sweetener, and vanilla extract in a bowl until a soft dough forms.
- Spray a pizza pan or baking sheet lightly with cooking spray or parchment paper to make it easier to slice and remove.
- Carefully press the crust into an even layer. Tip: I place a silicone baking sheet on top of the crust and press or roll the dough into an even layer. Carefully, slowly peel the silicone off the dough. My crust is between 10-11 inches in diameter.
- Bake the crust 6-7 minutes until lightly browned and completely set.
- Allow the crust to cool completely.
- In a food processor, blender, or with a hand mixer, combine the cream cheese, sweetener, cream, almond milk, vanilla, lime juice, and lime zest blend or mix until smooth.
- Spread the cream cheese frosting on the crust and top with fruit.
Tips
- Don’t overbake the crust. This step is essential! Bake for 6-7 minutes, and check your crust regularly to be sure it isn’t getting too brown.
- To ensure your crust is an even thickness, I recommend placing a silicone baking sheet on top to roll it out.
- Give your cream cheese time to get to room temperature- it will be much easier to mix.
- Be sure to give your crust ample time to cool!
What fruit is keto?
Berries are a safe fruit for a keto diet. I prefer strawberries for a topping on this fruit pizza, but blueberries, raspberries, blackberries would all be delicious! Fruit does contain natural sugars, so be sure to enjoy in moderation.
