Ingredients

3 medium Sweet Potatoes, peeled, diced
1 cup Old-Fashioned Rolled oats
3/4 cup Oat Flour
2 tablespoons Ground Flaxseeds
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 teaspoon Onion Powder
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 tablespoon Nutritional Yeast
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 teaspoons Italian Seasoning
½ teaspoon Fine Sea Salt
½ teaspoon Baking Powder

Instructions

Place 1-2 inches of water into a medium sauce pot and set it over medium-high heat.

Add the sweet potatoes to the steamer basket, set it on top of the pot, and cover it. Cook for 15 minutes until fork tender.

Place the steamed sweet potatoes into a large bowl and mash them using a potato masher

Add the oats, 1/2 cup oat flour, flaxseed, garlic powder, onion powder, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and baking powder. Mix to combine.

The sweet potato mixture should have a spreadable consistency. If it has a loose consistency, add the remaining 1/4 cup of oat flour.

Preheat oven to 400 °F. Line 2 pizza pans or pizza stones with parchment paper.

Divide the sweet potato between the pizza pans. Wet an offset spatula with a bit of water, then spread the sweet potato dough into a circle that is 1/3 inch in thickness.

Bake the sweet potato crusts for 20-25 minutes, until slightly browned around the edges and the crusts are firm

Add your favorite toppings to the sweet potato pizza crusts. I used cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, red onions, sliced mushrooms, and chopped parsley.

Bake the sweet potato pizza for 8-10 minutes. Once cooked, serve hot and enjoy!
