Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Peel the potatoes and use a box grater to grate them into fine shreds. Place the shredded potatoes onto a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded potatoes with the egg, shredded mozzarella cheese, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until well incorporated.
Transfer the potato mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread it out evenly and press it down firmly into a circular or rectangular shape about 1/4-inch thick to form the crust.
Bake the potato crust in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
While the crust is baking, prepare the toppings. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Lightly sauté the bell peppers, mushrooms, and sweet corn for 3–4 minutes until softened. Set aside.
Once the crust is baked, remove it from the oven and spread the pizza sauce evenly over the surface.
Scatter the sautéed vegetables and red onion slices over the sauce. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese and dried oregano on top.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 10–15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
Slice and serve warm. Enjoy your homemade Potato Crust Vegetable Pizza!
