🥕 Vegetarian Recipe (Can be Made Vegan)
🥕 Ingredients for the Base:
- 250g carrots, cut into small pieces
- 2 eggs
- 5 tablespoons of flour (use your preferred type: all-purpose, whole wheat, or gluten-free, such as almond flour or chickpea flour)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika (to taste)
👩🍳 Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Prepare the carrots: Cut the carrots into small pieces—no need to grate! This will make blending easier.
- Make the dough: This base is super easy to prepare! Add the carrot pieces, eggs, and spices into a food processor and blend until smooth. Then, add the flour and baking powder and mix again until well combined.
- Shape & Bake: Line a baking tray with parchment paper, then drop the mixture onto it and shape it into a round pizza base using a spoon or spatula. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden and firm.
🍅🧀 Toppings & Assembly:
Once your crust is golden and set, it’s time for the fun part—toppings!
Suggested Toppings:
- Base Sauce: Pesto (red or green—both work wonderfully!)
- Proteins: Vegetarian bacon or your favorite plant-based alternative
- Cheeses: Mozzarella, Parmesan, and Feta
- Final Touch: A drizzle of honey or date syrup for a sweet contrast
🔥 Final Steps:
- Add your toppings: Spread pesto on the base, layer on the vegetarian bacon, mozzarella, Parmesan, and Feta.
- Bake again: Place the pizza back in the oven for a few minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve & Enjoy: Remove from the oven, drizzle with honey or date syrup, and enjoy a delicious, nutritious twist on pizza!
