Ingredients
Scale
Bagels
- 2 bagels (any type you prefer, whole wheat for a healthier option)
Cream Cheese
- ½ cup cream cheese (regular or reduced-fat)
Fruit Toppings
- 1 cup mixed fruit (such as strawberries, blueberries, bananas, kiwi, and grapes)
Optional Topping
- 1 tablespoon honey (for drizzling)
Instructions
- Prepare the Bagels: Slice the bagels in half and toast them lightly, if desired, to add a slight crunch and warm them up.
- Spread the Cream Cheese: Once the bagels are toasted, evenly spread a generous layer of cream cheese on each half to create a smooth base for the toppings.
- Add the Fruit: Arrange fresh fruit slices on top of the cream cheese layer. You can make creative patterns or let children select and place their favorite fruits for a personalized touch.
- Drizzle with Honey: If using, lightly drizzle honey over the fruit to add a natural sweetness and glossy finish to your fruit pizza.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately while the bagels are still fresh. This colorful and healthy breakfast is perfect for kids to enjoy and customize.
Notes
- Use whole wheat bagels for added fiber and nutrients.
- Choose seasonal fruits for freshness and variety.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute cream cheese with a plant-based spread.
- Honey is optional and can be omitted for a less sweet version or for children under 1 year old.
- Make it more fun by letting kids assemble their own fruit pizzas.
