fresh watermelon pizza recipe - featured image

A quick and easy summer snack featuring thick watermelon rounds topped with creamy Greek yogurt and crunchy granola, perfect for refreshing gatherings or solo treats.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large seedless watermelon, sliced into 1-inch thick rounds
  • 1 cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 12 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 cup crunchy granola (preferably with toasted oats, nuts, and cinnamon)
  • A handful of fresh mint leaves, roughly chopped
  • ½ cup fresh berries or sliced strawberries (optional)
  • Chia seeds or flaxseeds for sprinkling (optional)

Instructions

  1. Slice the watermelon rounds about 1 inch thick and remove the rind to create a flat base.
  2. In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup until smooth and creamy (optional).
  3. Spread about 2 tablespoons of the yogurt mixture evenly over each watermelon round.
  4. Sprinkle approximately 2 tablespoons of crunchy granola over the yogurt layer.
  5. Top with fresh mint leaves and optional berries or seeds for extra flavor and color.
  6. Serve immediately to maintain the crunchiness of the granola and the freshness of the watermelon.

Notes

Assemble just before serving to keep granola crunchy and watermelon fresh. Use a sharp knife for clean watermelon slices. Chill watermelon and yogurt beforehand for best refreshment. For dairy-free, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut or almond-based yogurt. Add a drizzle of balsamic glaze or sprinkle chili powder for a flavor twist.
