INGREDIENTS
- 2 ½ cups vanilla Greek yogurt
- ¾ cup granola
- ¼ cup RASPBERRY Artisan Jam
- 1 ½ cups sliced fruit or berries – we used chopped mango, kiwi, strawberries, blueberries and raspberries!
- Spread The Love NAKED Organic Peanut Butter for drizzling
INSTRUCTIONS
✔ Step 1 - Prep the Base
Line an 8–10″ circular plate or tray with parchment paper. Spread the vanilla Greek yogurt into a thick, even layer — this is where your PB&J flavor party begins!
✔ Step 2 - Build the Crust
Sprinkle granola around the edges of the yogurt to create a crunchy crust that gives your dessert-pizza structure and texture.
✔ Step 3 - Add Jam Swirls
Drop four small spoonfuls of raspberry Artisan jam (our take on traditional PB&J jelly) onto the surface and gently swirl them throughout the yogurt.
✔ Step 4 - Top With Fruit
Add various chopped fruits or berries across the top — color, freshness, and flavor that contrast perfectly with creamy yogurt and rich jam.
✔ Step 5 - Freeze & Serve
Transfer your creation to the freezer for about two hours so it sets into a “pizza” you can slice. Once ready, drizzle with NAKED Organic Peanut Butter, cut into slices, and enjoy!
📌 Tip: Remaining slices can be frozen and stored in an airtight container separated by parchment paper for up to one month, perfect for quick snacks or last-minute guests.
