Quick-Bread Pizza Crust

This is a quick, easy and healthy pizza crust we have used for years. Found this in a heart healthy cookbook my Mom bought back in the 1980’s. – Elizabeth.

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup oat flour (see note)
  • ¾ cup whole wheat flour
  • ¾ cup unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt (optional)
  • ⅔ cup milk
  • ¼ cup safflower oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
  2. In a large bowl combine oat, whole wheat and all-purpose flours, baking powder and salt (if desired) and mix well. Add milk and oil and mix to form a ball.
  3. Roll out to ¼” thick or to your desired thickness and size.
  4. Bake crust 10-15 minutes before adding toppings.

Notes

  • Oat Flour from Rolled Oats: To make 1 cup of oat flour, place 1¼ cups of rolled oats in a blender or food processor. Blend or process for 1 minute using the highest speed or “grind” setting, stopping occasionally to stir the oats to make sure they are ground evenly.
  • Elizabeth’s Hint: We like to put sauce, 1 layer of cheese and toppings on par-baked crust and bake for 15-20 minutes. Then add second layer of cheese and bake until cheese is melted or slightly golden. Cool slightly before cutting.
