Buckwheat Flour Pizza Crust - Phase II

  • Hey everyone,
    I made a low calorie, super healthy pizza that tastes INCREDIBLE!!
    Although it's not SB Phase 1 friendly it is a healthy alternative to real pizza (with ALL the flavor!!!)
    Buckwheat Flour Pizza (good for 16 slices - 2 8 slice pizzas)
    - 3 cups BW Flour
    - 1 tsp baking powder
    - dash of salt/garlic salt
    - 3 tbs of Egg white Subs
    *Add water until you get a good dough texture* (roughly 1/2 cup warm water?) I didn't measure
    - kneed dough, sprinkle BW flour overtop and let sit for about 2 hours
    - divide into 2 balls and roll out 2 good size pizzas
    - top with sugar free pizza sauce (you can make it or buy it)
    - mushrooms/peppers/onions (I didn't use pepperoni - too high in fat/calories)
    - sprinkle low fat mozzarella overtop (I didn't use much at all just enough)

    Per 2 Slice Serving of DOUGH ONLY (because honestly 1 slice isn't a serving)

    Enjoy!
  • This looks great. I'm going to give it a try tomorrow. Do you think the dough would freeze so I could use half at a later date? or should I bake it and freeze the baked crust?

  • Heidi, it would be best to bake the crust and then freeze it. I find unbaked yeast doesn't freeze well.
    Nelie, red wine is recommended but dry white is OK, especially in such a small amount.
    By the way, I think it should be a [b]½ cup of water[b]. I'll go in and edit the recipe.
  • This looks great, I can't wait to try it - but I'm confused about Ruth's comment on yeast? I didn't see yeast in the original ingredients list. Am I missing something?
