Ingredients
- 2 cups mashed sweet potatoes (about 2 medium sweet potatoes)
- 1 cup gluten-free flour blend
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup assorted veggies (bell peppers, mushrooms, spinach, etc.)
- Olive oil for drizzling
Instructions
- Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Cook the sweet potatoes until soft, then mash them in a bowl.
- Make the Crust: In the bowl with the mashed sweet potatoes, mix in the gluten-free flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper until a dough forms.
- Shape the Crust: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the sweet potato dough into a circular shape, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Bake the Crust: Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Add Toppings: Remove the crust from the oven. Spread pizza sauce evenly over the crust, followed by shredded mozzarella cheese and assorted veggies.
- Final Bake: Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve: Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing. Drizzle with olive oil if desired and enjoy!
