Breakfast Pizza



Serves 2 
  • 1/2 cup whole-wheat pastry flour 
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 stevia packets (1/16 tsp uncut) (Can easily be omitted if you’re planning to frost the pizza with something very sweet.)
  • very scant 1/2 cup (100 g) water, juice, or milk of choice
  • 2 tbsp (35g) applesauce or coconut oil (or pumpkin, veg oil, mashed banana, or even baby food!)
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • spices or extracts if you wish (I like adding a little cinnamon)
  • A few handfuls ______ Fill in the blank! Raspberries? Chocolate chips? Chopped apples, walnuts, and raisins?  Anything goes!!  It’s your pizzat!
Mix everything together and pour into a pan greased with coconut oil. Make sure it’s evenly coated and greased enough, or it’ll stick to the pan.
 Cook in an UNpreheated oven at 420 degrees F for 10 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. 
Then you get to play with toppings: fresh berries, yogurt, cream cheese, hot baked apples. You are only limited by your imagination
