Pear And Cranberry Fruit Pizza Recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2

                        cups Original Bisquick™ mix

1/4

cup sugar

1

teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2

cup cold butter or margarine

1/3

cup cold water

4

tablespoons honey

3

ripe large pears (about 1 1/2 lb), peeled, chopped

1

cup sweetened dried cranberries

2

teaspoons grated orange peel

1

cinnamon stick (3 inch)

1

package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened

Preparation

Heat oven to 450°F. Grease 12-inch pizza pan with shortening or cooking spray.

In medium bowl, stir Bisquick mix, sugar and ground cinnamon. Cut in butter, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until butter is blended into dough. Stir in water with fork. Spread dough onto pizza pan. Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely.

Meanwhile, in deep 10-inch skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the honey over medium-high heat until bubbly. Stir in pears, cranberries, orange peel and cinnamon stick. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until pears are soft. Cool. Remove cinnamon stick; discard.

In small bowl, mix cream cheese with remaining 2 tablespoons honey. Spread mixture over crust, leaving 1/2-inch border around edges. Spoon pear mixture over cream cheese layer. Serve immediately or refrigerate until serving time.
