Print Recipe

A refreshing and colorful summer treat featuring a juicy watermelon base topped with creamy Greek yogurt frosting and fresh fruit. Perfect for parties and quick to assemble.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large seedless watermelon (about 5–6 pounds), sliced into a 1-inch thick round wheel
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup sliced strawberries (hulled and halved)
  • 1 kiwi, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup seedless red grapes, halved
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish
  • Optional: chopped nuts like pistachios or almonds
  • Optional: shredded coconut
  • Optional: lime zest

Instructions

  1. Rinse the watermelon and pat dry. Slice off both ends to create stable flat surfaces. Cut a 1-inch thick round slice from the middle of the watermelon to serve as the pizza crust. Trim edges if desired.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and creamy. Adjust sweetness if needed.
  3. Place the watermelon slice on a serving platter. Spread the Greek yogurt frosting evenly over the surface, leaving about a half-inch border around the edge.
  4. Arrange fresh fruit toppings on top of the yogurt layer, starting with blueberries near the edge, then strawberries, kiwi, and grapes toward the center. Garnish with fresh mint leaves.
  5. If desired, sprinkle chopped nuts or shredded coconut and zest lime over the top.
  6. Serve immediately or chill covered loosely with plastic wrap. Add mint and nuts just before serving if prepared ahead.

Notes

Use a ripe, seedless watermelon with a creamy yellow spot for sweetness. Strain Greek yogurt if too runny to thicken frosting. Pat dry fruit toppings to avoid sogginess. Serve chilled but not icy. Assemble just before serving to prevent watermelon from becoming watery.
