Sprouted Pizza 'Crust'

Sprouted seeds/grains offer SO much more benefits than their un-sprouted counterparts. Seeds and grains offer benefits on their own, however unfortunately many of these benefits are LOCKED. The sprouting process unlocks these benefits and allows your body to absorb and digest all of their vitamins and nutrients. Read more about the benefits of sprouting here!

    • Prep Time: 5 Minutes
    • Cook Time: 15 minutes  
    • Yields: 6” Crust

    Preparation:

    1. Preheat the oven to 325°

    2. In a small bowl mix together the almond flour, sprouted chia flax, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and italian spice blend until combined.

    3. Crack the egg and drizzle the oil into the dry mixture and combine.

    4. Spoon and spread your mixture evenly onto the parchment paper.

    5. Place your dough in the oven and bake for roughly 10-12 minutes.

    6. After 10-12 minutes, check to see if your crust is ready. If the crust easily lifts off of the parchment paper like a cracker, that means it’s ready! If you notice that the edges of your pizza crust are browning, this is also an indication that your crust is ready for topping!

    7. Remove your crust from the oven and dress with your favourite toppings. It can be enjoyed as is, or can be placed back in the oven to heat the toppings.
