Beet Crust Dessert Pizza
Ready In: 1 hr 10 mins
Serves: 10
Yields: 10 slices
Ingredients
For the Beet Crust
- 2 medium beets
- 3⁄4 cup almond meal
- 1⁄3 cup gluten-free flour
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
Toppings
- 1 1⁄2 cups chocolate chips
- 1 1⁄2 cups peanut butter chips
- 1⁄4 cup whipped topping
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Wash the beets, and cut off any roots and stems. Then, wrap the beets in aluminum foil and bake them for 45 minutes, or until tender.
- When beets are baked through, remove them from the oven and let them cool until they are okay to handle by hand.
- Then, unwrap the foil off the beets. Peel off any beet skin with a peeler. Then, place the beets in a high-powered blender. Blend on high until beets are puréed. This should result in about 1 and 1/4 cups of puréed beets.
- Then place the puréed beets in a large bowl. To the bowl, add the almond meal, gluten-free flour, salt, baking powder, olive oil, egg, vanilla, and sugar, and mix well with a spatula. The dough will be wet.
- Using the spatula, smooth out beet crust to about 1/3 inch thick onto a parchment-lined baking tray.
- Turn the oven to 375 degrees F and bake for 25 minutes.
- Remove the beautiful beet crust from the oven and turn the oven off.
- Let it cool.
- Then, top that gorgeous beet crust with coconut cream or whipped cream, some of the chocolate chips (about 1/2 cup approx), and some of the peanut butter chips (about 1/2 cup approx).
