Raw Dessert Pizza (Vegan, Paleo)

With Memorial Day coming up, it’s time to pull out the red, white and blue to show our gratitude for all those who have served and given their lives for our freedom. 

This raw, vegan (aka NO baking required, my favorite type of dessert) patriotic fruit pizza looks so festive, and will make the perfect addition to your Memorial Day BBQ celebration…or just to make and enjoy on a hot summer day since its best served nice and cold! It’s loaded with nutrient-dense ingredients, but you’d never know by eating it.

This healthified version of a traditional fruit pizza is made with a few simple whole food ingredients like walnuts, dates, coconut, a touch of maple syrup, and berries. Even if you’re not confident in the kitchen, it’s hard to mess it up 🙂

It starts with a crust that’s like a big chewy cookie, then it’s filled with a thick frosting ‘sauce’ made with canned coconut milk, and topped with your favorite seasonal fruits like raspberries, blueberries, kiwi, dragon fruit, grapes, and blackberries. 

Get your creative juices flowing to make your own design!
