Question 1

What wheat berries work best for Fruit Pizza with Freshly Milled Flour?

Accepted Answer

I recommend using a blend of freshly milled hard white wheat and freshly milled soft white wheat. hard white wheat gives the sugar cookie crust enough strength to support the frosting and fruit, while Soft White Wheat creates a softer, more tender texture that's perfect for desserts.

Question 2

Can I make Fruit Pizza ahead of time?

Accepted Answer

Yes, for the best texture, bake the sugar cookie crust up to 2 days in advance and store it tightly covered at room temperature. The cream cheese frosting can also be made ahead and refrigerated. Assemble the fruit pizza a few hours before serving so the fruit stays fresh and the crust remains crisp.

Question 3

How do I keep fruit pizza from getting soggy?

Accepted Answer

Make sure the cookie crust has cooled completely before adding the frosting, and always pat your fruit dry after washing it. Excess moisture is the biggest cause of a soggy fruit pizza. If you're making it ahead, wait to decorate with the fruit until the day you plan to serve it.

Question 4

Can I freeze the cookie crust?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely, the baked sugar cookie crust freezes very well. Once it has cooled completely, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and place it in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before adding the frosting and fruit.
