Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups oat bran
- 0.5 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.75 cups water
- 0.5 cups tomato sauce
- 1 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cups toppings of choice (e.g., sliced vegetables, cooked chicken, olives)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet or pizza stone with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat bran, whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
Add the olive oil and water to the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time.
Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet. Using your hands or a rolling pin, spread the dough into a round, even crust about 1/4-inch thick.
Place the crust in the oven and pre-bake for 6-8 minutes, or until it begins to firm up slightly.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the tomato sauce evenly over the surface.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then add your desired toppings.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes before slicing and serving.
