Sweet Pizza

16/8/2014

 
Today I went to my friend's Pizza Party and she asked me to bring dessert. I thought about whipping out my Gluten Free Nutella Meringue Brownies then I realised we had a pack of croissants left over from a family visit. I thought I'd try to find a way to use them up.

I turned to trusty Google - I hardly ever use recipe books anymore. The only recipe I came up with was a bread and butter type pudding. It sounded amazing; but it would take far too long to cook at the party. I decided to create my own recipe and so my Sweet Pizzas were born!

They're the easiest thing and you can put anything you want on them. I raided my cupboards and found a pack of mini marshmallows and some bars of chocolate.

They work as
a very yummy dessert; but I also tried one out for breakfast and it made for a very indulgent start to the morning - much more exciting than a croissant with a dollop of jam, even if it is homemade.


Sweet Pizzas

  • Croissants
  • Topping

I used different combinations of toppings so people had a choice. You can use any of the following:
  • fresh fruit
  • chocolate
  • mini marshmallows
  • Nutella, jam, honey, syrup, peanut butter

The Smore Pizzas were my favourite they had:
  • Nutella
  • mini marshmallows
  • strawberries (to make them healthy)

  1. Slice the croissant in half.
  2. Spread with Nutella.
  3. Add sliced strawberries.
  4. Sprinkle with mini- marshmallows.
  5. Place on a baking tray and cook in a preheated oven, 180C for 5 - 7 minutes.
  6. They are ready when the mini marshmallows start to brown. Or if you're using a square of chocolate, it starts to look slightly melted. The chocolates didn't go liquid melty when I did it, so don't wait for that or they will burn.
  7. Serve as they are or with a scoop of ice cream. Yum!
