You’ll Love This Vegan Raw Thai Pizza Recipe
The following article was written by Carissa Leventis-Cox of Mama in the Kitchen, and she ain’t cookin’!
My pizza-loving husband inspired me to create this raw Thai pizza. After eating one large pie all by himself, he declared his approval. See if you agree!
Note: Plan on making the raw dough a day or two ahead of serving the pizza.
Raw Thai Pizza
Sprouted Buckwheat Pizza Crust
2 cups buckwheat groats
1 garlic clove, chopped
2 tsp. sea salt
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup flaxseed meal
2 medium zucchinis, chopped
- Soak the buckwheat groats in water overnight. Rinse and drain well the next day. Place in a food processor with the rest of the ingredients.
- Spread the mixture on Texflex sheets and dehydrate for 8 to 12 hours. Turn it out onto mesh screens and dehydrate another 1 to 2 hours at 105ºF.
- Alternatively, dehydrate on full at 150ºF for 1 to 2 hours, then decrease to 105ºF and dehydrate until dry but still soft, 2 to 4 hours.
