This yummy gluten-free, high protein, and high fiber pizza can be eaten for breakfast or dessert. You choose! Each piece has 5.6g of protein and 2.4g of fiber, along with health-promoting microbes and plant chemicals in the fruit.

Ingredients

Crust
  • ½ cup pecans (or other nuts), finely chopped
  • 1 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1 egg (or egg substitute) 🥚
  • 2 to 4 tbsp pure maple syrup (use closer to 2 tbsp for breakfast and 4 tbsp for dessert.
  • 1 tbsp cold pressed or virgin coconut oil, melted
  • ½ tsp almond extract (important)
  • ¼ tsp salt
Topping
  • 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (or non-dairy greek-style yogurt)
  • 1 1/2 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1 cup fruit, sliced if needed

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 350 ºF and place a piece of parchment paper on an extra-large to large baking sheet.
  2. Mix all the crust ingredients together until well combined. Transfer to a large baking sheet. Place another piece of parchment paper over the top. Press dough to form an oval or rectangle shape. Using a rolling pin, roll until about 1/4 inch thick.
  3. Bake crust for about 12 to 14 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool completely.
  4. Mix yogurt and maple syrup together for the filling. Spread yogurt mixture on cooled crust and spread evenly. Top with fruit and cut into 10 slices or squares.

Notes

Pro tip:

It's probably easier to eat this pizza if you cut it into squares rather than long pizza slices (unless you have a crispier crust). I like a crispier crust, so I cook my crust so it's really brown on the edges.
