Recipe: Easy Fruit Pizza

Ingredients

• Canned Fruits
• Uncooked Biscuits, canned or homemade
• Cinnamon

Directions

Use biscuits pressed onto a pizza pan. Add one or a combination of your choice: make a fruit pizza with canned fruits with all juice removed. Pat dry with a paper towel or clean white cloth.

I have used clean white wash cloths. Just make sure all biscuits are touching. Don't press too thin. Bake at 350 degrees F until biscuits are lightly browned. Keep an eye on them. They don't take that long. (10 minutes) I have added cinnamon to mine for extra flavor.

Regular Pizza Variation:

Put on them what you like. You can use this to make a pizza with all your favorite toppings: tomato sauce, cheese, pepperoni, peppers, onions etc. Use your imagination to come up with your own ideas
