Ingredients
  

1 large whole-wheat pita or flatbread

2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened

1 tablespoon honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup assorted fresh fruits (sliced strawberries, kiwi, banana, and peach)

1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (optional for a savory twist)

A sprinkle of cinnamon (to taste)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Olive oil or non-stick cooking spray for grilling

Instructions
 

Prepare the Spread: In a small bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.

    Assemble the Pizza: Lay the whole-wheat pita or flatbread flat on a clean surface. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the entire surface.

      Add the Fruits: Artfully layer the assorted fresh fruit slices on top of the cream cheese spread. If you're opting for a savory version, sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the fruits.

        Season: Lightly sprinkle with cinnamon to enhance the flavors of the fruits.

          Cook the Sandwich: Preheat a grill pan over medium heat and lightly brush it with olive oil or spray with non-stick cooking spray. Place the assembled fruit pizza on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the flatbread is golden and crispy, and the cheese (if used) is melty.

            Serve and Garnish: Remove the grilled fruit pizza sandwich from the pan and allow it to cool slightly. Garnish with fresh mint leaves before slicing into wedges.

              Enjoy: Serve warm and indulge in the sweet and savory flavors of your Grilled Fruit Pizza Sandwich Melt!
