To achieve the perfect crust for your Fruit Pizza Veggie Stir Fry, preheating the oven is a crucial step. Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) and allow it to fully heat up before placing your pizza inside. This high temperature is essential for creating a crispy crust that contrasts beautifully with the fresh toppings. A preheated oven ensures that the dough cooks evenly and rises properly, giving you that satisfying crunch while maintaining a chewy interior. If your oven has a convection setting, feel free to use it, as this will enhance circulation and help achieve even browning throughout the pizza.

Ingredients
  

1 medium-sized pizza crust (store-bought or homemade)

1/2 cup pizza sauce (choose between tomato-based or pesto)

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup assorted fresh fruits (such as strawberries, kiwi, blueberries, and pineapple)

1 bell pepper, sliced (any color you prefer)

1 small zucchini, sliced into thin rounds

1 cup broccoli florets, chopped into bite-sized pieces

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon honey (or substitute with maple syrup for a vegan option)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

Red pepper flakes (optional, if you like some heat)

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C). If you're using a pre-made pizza crust, place it directly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. If making homemade crust, roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness.

    Prepare the veggie stir fry: In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced bell pepper, zucchini, and broccoli florets. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften but still retain some crunch.

      Add sauces and seasonings: Pour in the soy sauce and honey, stirring everything together until well combined. Add garlic powder, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the vegetables to absorb the flavors while becoming tender-crisp. Remove the skillet from the heat and set aside.

        Assemble the pizza: Evenly spread the pizza sauce over the prepared dough, covering the surface completely but leaving a small border for the crust.

          Layer on the cheese: Generously sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, ensuring even coverage.

            Add the stir-fried veggies: Distribute the sautéed vegetables evenly on top of the cheese, allowing for a colorful mix across the surface.

              Arrange the fruit toppings: Neatly position the assorted fresh fruits atop the vegetables. Get creative with the arrangement to showcase a vibrant spectrum of colors and textures.

                Bake the pizza: Place the assembled pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and lightly golden.

                  Finishing touches: Once you've removed the pizza from the oven, garnish it with fresh basil leaves. If desired, add a sprinkling of red pepper flakes for an extra kick. Let the pizza cool for a few moments before slicing it into wedges.

                    Serve and enjoy: Present your Fruit Pizza Veggie Stir Fry hot and fresh, captivating your guests with the artistic and delicious display!
