Ⓥ Yeast-Free Spelt Crust Ⓥ

So people have been bugging me for this recipe and I am just finally now posting this--finally! ;) Anyways, this was my husband's creation so all credit goes to him. It's super simple and easy to make and you can add any spices you'd like to add a little extra flavour. It rises just fine, while still being a thin crust it's really quite fluffy and I forget that we don't even use yeast--we haven't in years and don't miss it or need it. ;)

This crust is vegan, yeast-free, and wheat-free (but not gluten-free). 

Anyway, recipe ago! 

Yeast-Free Spelt Crust

2 cups Spelt Flour

1 cup Water

1/2 tsp Salt

1/2 tsp Baking Soda

1/2 tsp Baking Powder

spices (optional, oregano, basil, cumin are fantastic) 

Combine all the dry ingredients together in a medium-sized mixing bowl and mix well. Slowly add the water until you get a nice doughy consistency, not too runny and not too thick. If you accidentally add too much water then you can always add more flour, no biggie. ;)

Makes 1 crust. 

Top with all your favourite pizza toppings, sauce, and vegan cheese! Bake in the oven at 350℉ for about 20-30 minutes, until the bottom is slightly browned and your toppings have cooked. Voila! Yeast-free pizza crust!

Ⓥ Vegan Kitchen: Vegan Gluten-free Cheeseless Falafel Pizza! Ⓥ

This yummy Vegan Pizza alternative is one of my favorites. I like to think of it as the most epic Pizza ever. I have made it many many times with all sorts of variations. 

This is NOT your average Pizza! Do not expect this to be like anything you've ever had before. It has been a favorite for anyone who has tried it and it could be yours too! ;)

It is Gluten-free, sugar-free, and free of any animal products! It is a lovely mixture of soft chewiness and crunchy crispiness! 

And it's great with just about any topping. See below for my favorites...

Prepare Crust...

Gluten-Free Pizza Crust:

1 cup Brown Rice Flour 

1/2 cup Tapioca Flour

2/3 cup Rice Milk (or other "milk")

Egg Replacer equal to 2 Eggs

1 teaspoon Salt

1 teaspoon of Garlic

1/2 teaspoon each of Black Pepper, Oregano, Basil, Thyme, Mustard.

Pre-heat oven to 350. 

In a large mixing bowl, mix ingredients together until well-mixed and can form a sticky ball (*Tip: prepare egg-replacer mixture separately Before adding to other ingredients). 

Lightly Oil Pizza tray. Spread dough evenly onto tray. Warning: it can be pretty sticky so make sure you have extra flour handy for your hands and on the top of the dough so it's easier to spread.

Bake at 350 for approximately 20 minutes or until the edges start to brown (but don't wait until the middle browns, don't worry it will still cook later and be delicious ~_^). 

Remove Crust from oven and dress it up however you'd like. Here is my favorite combination...

Sauce for the pizza:

1 small can of Tomato Paste 

(super easy and adds a subtle sweetness that contrasts nicely)

Falafel:

See this Recipe.

Make the mixture (from above recipe) but do not fry or cook it. Simply crumble and spread all or half of the mixture onto your Crust. 

Add whatever other toppings you'd like! With or without vegan cheese it's delicious! 

My favorite Toppings for Falafel Pizza:

Daiya Cheese

Spinach

Broccoli 

Black Olives

Stick Falafel Pizza back in the oven and cook at 350 for another 10-15 minutes--just until the cheese has melted and the falafel starts to crisp. You can also broil it at the end for a minute for extra crispiness. :)

And there you have it, yummy Vegan Gluten-free Pizza! Enjoy this yummy, healthy new meal!!
