Equipment

  • Oven

Ingredients

For the dough:

  • ½ teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ cup water
  • 1 ⅓ cup almond flour
  • ½ cup arrowroot starch
  • ½ cup potato starch
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon flaxseed meal

For the toppings:

  • ½ red onion julienned
  • 4 large mushrooms thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper julienned
  • ½ cup unsalted chickpeas rinsed, drained, and cooked
  • 4 ounces artichoke hearts cooked, thinly sliced
  • 3 cups baby spinach whole leaves
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground

For Assembly:

  • Pizza dough ingredients above
  • 1 cup pizza sauce of your choice
  • Toppings ingredients above
  • 1 cup vegan parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil parsley, or oregano, thinly sliced

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F and line your baking tray with parchment paper.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine wet ingredients: apple cider vinegar, olive oil, and water. Whisk together and set aside.
  • In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients: almond flour, arrowroot starch, potato starch, garlic powder, baking soda, salt, and flaxseed meal. Carefully mix them until well combined.
  • Now, mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix it well until it starts to form a dough then start kneading. Add more flour if the dough is too wet or sticky. On the other hand, add a little more water if it's too dry.
  • Shape the dough into a circle or square, whichever you prefer. Use a rolling pin to flatten and shape it. You may also make it as thick as you want but a quarter-inch thick is ideal.
  • Transfer the dough into the prepared oven tray and bake for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, start preparing your toppings.
  • Remove the pre-baked dough in the oven and crank up the oven temperature to 475ºF.
  • Pour the pizza sauce onto the dough and spread evenly, leaving the edge a quarter to half-inch empty.
  • Arrange all the toppings over and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the toppings are toasted and the crust is firm and slightly golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven, sprinkle with parmesan cheese, and garnish with fresh parsley, oregano, or basil. Divide into 6 slices. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • You may omit any of the above vegetables that you don't like and replace them with the ones that you prefer. Feel free to get creative with this!
