Ingredients
- 1 whole wheat pita pocket, about 6 in (15.25 cm) in diameter
- 2 tbsp (30 mL) extra virgin olive oil, divided
- 4 oz (113 g) creamy goat cheese
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) seedless Chilean red and/or black grape halves
- 1 tsp (5 mL) fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 (2.5 mL) maple syrup
- 16 fresh mint leaves
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375ºF (190ºC).
- Gently slice pita in half and separate into 2 rounds. Place pita rounds on a baking sheet (insides up) and brush with 1 tbsp (15 mL) olive oil.
- Crumble and scatter goat cheese onto the pita halves, leaving a little border of naked pita around the edges, then nestle grapes on top of, and around, the crumbled goat cheese.
- Bake pita pizzas for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is warm and pita is crisp.
- In a small bowl or little jar, whisk together 1 tbsp (15 mL) olive oil, lemon juice and maple syrup.
- Sprinkle fresh mint leaves on top of the cooked pizzas, and drizzle with some of the maple-lemon dressing.
- Enjoy immediately.
