A simple, crispy thin-crust pizza made from soaked grains - millet or quinoa!

Yields2 Servings
Prep Time10 minsCook Time30 minsTotal Time40 mins

For the crust:
 1 cup millet or quinoa, rinsed, soaked 8-12 hours, drained, and rinsed again
 1 ¼ tsp baking powder
 ½ tsp salt
 ¼ cup + 2 tbsp. water
 olive oil & parchment paper for the tray
Optional gluten-free & dairy-free toppings:
 ½ cup homemade pesto
 2 organic tomatoes, sliced
 2 tsp Italian seasoning

1

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

2

Place soaked and rinsed grain into a food processor with the baking powder, salt, and water for 2-3 minutes, until the batter is completely smooth (no lumps).

3

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and coat with olive oil (I drizzled some onto the parchment paper and used a paper towel to spread it around.)

4

Pour batter onto prepared baking sheet and spread the batter around until about 1/4-1/3 inch thickness. It will seem watery but it's ok! Just don't spread it too thin.

5

Bake crust for 20 minutes.
During this time you can prepare the pesto!

6

Top crust with desired toppings.
Bake for another 5-10 minutes, until toppings are cooked through.
