Lemon Zest

If you don’t like the taste of coconut flakes and coconuts in general, you can substitute them for a little bit of lemon zest. This will give a fresh, citrus-y kick to the dessert pizza.

Fruit

While berries are our top pick for the topping of this pizza, you can use any fresh fruit to substitute them. Use seasonal fruits to make this dessert as yummy as possible. Whatever fruits you decide to use just make sure to slice them nice and thin. This will make the pizza a lot easier to eat.

Greek Yogurt

If you want to cut down the calories of this yummy dessert even more, you can substitute the cream cheese with some Greek yogurt or even better some skyr. If you are vegan, try out a vegan cream cheese or a dairy-free yogurt.

Cool Down

It’s important to let the base cool down before you spread the cream cheese mixture. If you put it on the warm base it will start to melt. And nobody wants that. So, make sure to let the base cool down beforehand.

Use fresh fruits of your choice
