Healthy Dessert Pizzas

Alright folks - here we go. The home stretch. I am down to 5 final recipes. In honour of the final five, I'd like to post recipes that are made using my favourite foods. This recipe - #5 - is definitely a combination of some of my favourite things. Chocolate, check. Peanut butter, check. Pizza, check. And a few other ingredients are mixed in that aren't too shabby, either. Dark chocolate is definitely a healthy indulgence. Bananas and peanut butter are also good for you. So this recipe (slightly modified from familyfreshcooking) makes the cut for my blog. Enjoy!

#5 - Dark Chocolate, Peanut Butter, Banana Pizza
  • 1 pound homemade pizza dough, divided into 8 portions (roughly half batch of my recipe)
  • 4 ounces (fat free) Ricotta Cheese
  • 4 tablespoons natural Peanut Butter
  • a pinch of sugar, to taste (original recipe calls for Stevia drops)
  • 1 large Banana Sliced thin
  • 2-3 ounces Dark Chocolate, broken into pieces
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Lightly grease or line large baking sheet.
2. Flatten each portion of dough to about 1/2 thick. Place on baking sheet (or two, if they don't all fit).
3. In a medium sized bowl, mix together ricotta, peanut butter and sugar, until creamy. Evenly spread between each portion of dough. Top each with some slices of banana, and finally with a piece of dark chocolate.
4. Bake in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until dough is cooked and chocolate is melted. ENJOY!
