Basic Pizza Crust

This is my favourite pizza crust to make, since it doesn’t compete with the sauce and toppings and is mild.

I’ve placed it in its own recipe box, so it can be used as a base for other pizzas.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup buckwheat, soaked
  • ¾ cup sundried tomatoes, soaked
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 onion
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 cup flaxmeal

Preparation

Process the buckwheat, tomatoes, avocado, onion, and sea salt until smooth.

Remove to a bowl and add the flaxmeal. Spread on two Teflexx sheets until about 1/8-1/4 inch thick. Score into slices and dehydrate for 3 hours. Flip the slices, turn heat to 95 degrees and dehydrate about another 10 hours.

Could you use buckwheat flour or do you need to use buckwheat groats?

I’d use buckwheat flour, if it were ground in a stone-mill. My understanding is that the steel-mills produce enough heat to deactivate the flour. Bob’s Red Mill is a good company for obtaining viable flours.

Is the buckwheat flour raw? or did they steam or roast the buckwheat?

poemomm – How long do you soak the buckwheat? Also is it necessary to include avocado or could one omit that?
