Why You’ll Love This Recipe
I love this recipe because it comes together in less than 10 minutes, yet feels indulgent and exciting. The rice cakes give a crunchy base that’s low in calories, the yogurt and peanut butter provide protein and creaminess, and the fruit adds freshness and natural sweetness. Plus, I can switch up the toppings depending on the season or what I have in the fridge. It’s perfect as a healthy dessert, after-school snack, or even a creative breakfast.
Ingredients
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
½ cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt – This creates the creamy base for the spread. It adds protein and a tangy flavor.
2 tablespoons natural peanut butter – I prefer using natural peanut butter for its smooth texture and wholesome ingredients. It blends well with the yogurt.
1 tablespoon honey – This adds just the right amount of sweetness to balance the tang of the yogurt and richness of the peanut butter.
4 rice cakes – I usually go for plain or lightly sweetened varieties like apple-cinnamon, but any kind will do.
Assorted fresh fruit – I like using sliced strawberries, bananas, blueberries, and kiwi for a vibrant mix of color and flavor.
Optional toppings – Granola, mini chocolate chips, chia seeds, shredded coconut, or chopped nuts for added texture and crunch.
Directions
In a medium bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, peanut butter, and honey until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Lay the rice cakes flat on a serving plate or tray.
Spread a generous layer of the yogurt-peanut butter mixture over each rice cake.
Top each one with an assortment of sliced fruit. I arrange them in patterns for a fun presentation.
Sprinkle optional toppings like granola, chocolate chips, or nuts over the fruit.
Serve immediately and enjoy while the rice cakes are still crisp.

Variations
Swap peanut butter for almond butter, cashew butter, or sunflower seed butter for a different flavor or allergen-friendly version.
Use flavored Greek yogurt such as vanilla or honey to adjust the sweetness and taste.
Try other bases like whole grain crackers, English muffin halves, or mini waffles.
Mix in spices like cinnamon or a dash of vanilla extract into the yogurt mixture.
Use seasonal fruit like peaches, nectarines, pomegranate seeds, or mango for variety throughout the year.
Storage/Reheating
Once assembled, these fruit pizzas are best enjoyed immediately. The rice cakes begin to soften once topped with the yogurt mixture and fruit, so I don’t recommend storing them after they’re made. However, I often prep the yogurt-peanut butter spread ahead of time and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When ready to serve, I just spread it over fresh rice cakes and top with fruit.
FAQs
What Kind Of Rice Cakes Work Best?
I like using plain or lightly flavored rice cakes, such as apple-cinnamon, since they provide a neutral base that complements the toppings. Avoid savory rice cakes like cheddar or tomato-flavored.
Can I Make This Recipe Nut-Free?
Yes, I replace the peanut butter with sunflower seed butter or soy nut butter. Just make sure any optional toppings like granola or chocolate chips are nut-free as well.
How Do I Keep The Rice Cakes From Getting Soggy?
I always assemble the fruit pizzas right before serving. If I’m prepping ahead, I keep the spread and fruit separate until the last moment to ensure maximum crunch.
Can I Use Regular Yogurt Instead Of Greek Yogurt?
Yes, but the texture will be thinner. Greek yogurt creates a thicker, creamier spread that holds better on the rice cakes. If using regular yogurt, I recommend straining it slightly to reduce moisture.
Is This A Good Recipe For Kids?
Absolutely. Kids love choosing their own fruit toppings and decorating the rice cakes. It’s a fun, interactive snack that also encourages healthy eating.
