Makes: 1 base
INGREDIENTS
2 ½ cups FreshLife Buckwheat Flour
¼ cup cornflour
¼ cup psyllium husk
1 ½ tsp salt
2 Tbsp chia seeds
3 Tbsp olive oil
2 tsp apple cider vinegar
1 cup yoghurt
½ cup water
METHOD
Preheat oven to 200°C fan bake. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
In a large bowl combine dry ingredients with a whisk. Use a spatula to push the dry ingredients to the side of the bowl to make a well. Pour wet ingredients into well and mix until a dough forms.
Knead a few times on a lightly floured surface until it comes together and is smooth, divide dough into 3 even pieces.
Press each piece into a disc shape on baking paper, add another piece of baking paper to top of dough and roll out to approximately 22cm round shapes.
Pre-bake pizza bases for 8 minutes, remove from oven and add desired toppings.
Topping Ideas:
Pizza sauce, cheese, cooked chicken, green and yellow peppers, cherry tomatoes, zahtar and pizza thyme (topping on photo)
TIP: if you are cooking for a crowd you can make smaller bases and have all the ingredients prepared for everyone to make their own pizza,
