Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (enough for a 12-inch crust) Whole wheat pizza dough
- 1 cup Hazelnuts
- 3 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Canola oil
- 0.25 cup Skim milk
- 1 cup, sliced Strawberries
- 1 sliced Banana
- 10 leaves, optional Fresh mint leaves
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
Place hazelnuts on a baking sheet and roast them in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until the skin begins to crack. Allow them to cool slightly, then transfer them to a clean kitchen towel and rub them to remove the skins.
In a food processor, blend the hazelnuts until they form a fine paste, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
Add cocoa powder, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and canola oil to the food processor. Blend until smooth, adding skim milk slowly until the desired spread consistency is reached. Set aside.
Roll out the whole wheat pizza dough on a lightly floured surface, forming a 12-inch round crust.
Transfer the dough to a pizza stone or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the crust in the oven for about 10 minutes or until lightly golden.
Remove the crust from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
Spread the homemade low-sodium Nutella evenly over the crust.
Top the pizza with sliced strawberries and bananas.
Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.
Slice and serve immediately to enjoy the creamy, fruity goodness.
