Servings: 4
Ingredients
For the base:
- 1 sweet potato large
- 1 cup oats
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp oregano
- 1 egg or flaxseed egg for vegan option
- 1/8 tsp sea salt
Toppings
- 1/2 cup cheese like Mozzarella or other melty cheese
- 2.5 Tbsp tomato paste or pizza sauce
- 1 Red onion
- 1/4 cup broccoli
- 1/2 cup green pepper
- 1/2 cup yellow pepper
- 1/2 cup red pepper
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes
- 1/4 cup cauliflower purple (or purple cabbage)
- 1/4 cup sweet corn
Instructions
- Cut the sweet potato in half and bake for 35-40 mins at 325ºF/170°C (fan-assisted).
- Blend the oats in a high-speed food processor/blender, then mix in the spices, egg, and baked potato. Blend until you obtain a uniform dough.
- Oil a baking tin, preferably a round one, then spread over the base dough. (You can mark the middle part with a glass or a cup so it's easy to cut it-watch the video).
- Bake the base for 15-20 mins at 325ºF/170°C (fan-assisted).
- In the meantime, chop your veggies.
- Spread the tomato sauce over the base, then sprinkle with cheese (optional). Then arrange the veggies to create the rainbow (leave the middle part empty if you want to make a rainbow cut).
- Bake for 10-15 mins at 325ºF/170°C (fan-assisted) to allow the veggies to soften and cook.
- Remove the middle part and your rainbow pizza is ready to enjoy!
