Breakfast Fruit Pizzas -- 4 Smart Points

This morning at a cooking demonstration sponsored by the Seminole Nation, these were prepared and we got to sample them.  They use the two ingredient dough that's been so popular with our Weight Watcher group, but it was made with flavored non-fat Greek yogurt rather than the plain.  I decided to experiment with their original recipe and tweak it a little to make it more "points friendly" for Weight Watchers.

This is the recipe, as prepared;  my version follows.



BIRTHDAY BREAKFAST PIZZAS

Cooking spray
1 c. Greek yogurt, vanilla, non fat
1 c. self rising flour
¼ c. sugar
4 tsp. cornstarch
½ c. water
2 c. mixed berries, frozen, divided
1 orange, zested
4 oz. cream cheese, reduced fat, softened
2 tsp. cinnamon sugar
Preheat oven to 425°.  Combine yogurt and flour.  Knead together and make into 8 balls of dough.
Use a rolling pin. Roll out into 8 individual pizzas.  Place on baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes. Turn over after 8 minutes.
In saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch, water and ½ cup fruit.  Cook over medium heat until thick.
Remove from heat and add remaining berries.  Mix and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix orange zest and cream cheese.  Set aside.
Spray pizzas with cooking spray.  Sprinkle cinnamon/sugar evenly on 8 pizzas.
Spread cream cheese mixture evenly over pizza crusts. Top with berry mixture.
Recipe from Chickasaw Nation Nutrition Services and can be found at www.getfreshcooking.com.

I used two types of Truvia: the baking formula and the regular.  I'm sure either one would work fine.

The total points for the entire recipe is 15 based on the ingredients I used.
4 Smart Points per pizza

 
Breakfast Fruit Pizzas

½ cup flour
¾ tsp. baking powder
¼ tsp. salt
½ cup Fage 0% Greek yogurt
½ tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. Truvia for baking

4 cups frozen mixed fruit
2 tsp. Truvia
1 T. cornstarch dissolved in small amount of water

½ cup Greek cream cheese
2 ½ tsp. Truvia
¼ tsp. cinnamon
Orange zest

Combine flour, baking powder and salt.  Add Greek yogurt, vanilla and baking Truvia
mix well to form soft dough.  Divide into 4 portions.  Pat out into a 3-4” circle.
Preheat a non stick skillet and cook circles until browned and completely done.
Set aside.
In saucepan, cook fruit, regular Truvia, and cornstarch until thickened.  The frozen fruit will release some juice so you may not need to add any additional water.
In a small bowl, mix the Greek cream cheese, regular Truvia, cinnamon and orange zest.
Top each of the pizzas with 2 T. of the cream cheese mixture and fruit.
