Sweet Potato Lentil Flour Pizza Crust

May 13, 2016 By Kyra - Vie De La Vegan 20 Comments

This sweet potato lentil flour pizza crust is a delicious healthy spin on vegan & gluten free pizza.

The all-time most popular recipe on the blog is this lentil pizza crust. I don’t even know how that happened. That pizza crust was a totally spontaneous creation (which my husband wasn’t a fan of, to be honest!) but this is proof that just because my husband doesn’t like something, doesn’t mean that no-one else will ;)

Something that I noticed was that a few people were finding that pizza crust by searching for “lentil flour pizza crust”. That prompted me to make a pizza crust with lentil flour, instead of red lentils. Sweet potato lentil flour pizza crust | vegan, gluten free, oil free | viedelavegan.com

This pizza crust was super easy to make too. Just 3 ingredients (no prizes for guessing which ingredients ;) ), mashed together and baked. I topped this pizza with a chunky olive spread (I was aiming to make an olive tapenade but didn’t have enough olives, so it turned out chunky…still delish though), capiscums, avocado and basil. So so tasty!

There’s another reason I’m posting a pizza recipe today. Today, me and Bianca at Elephantastic Vegan are throwing a #veganpizzaparty on Instagram! Our party is going to run for the next 4 weeks, and we would LOVE you to join in too. Simply post a photo of a vegan pizza you’ve made, tag @viedelavegan and @elephantasticvegan and use the hashtag #veganpizzaparty – we’ll be featuring your pizzas over the next 4 weeks <3

If you haven’t seen red lentil flour before, you can find it here. In Australia, you can find McKenzie’s Red Lentil Flour at Coles, Woolworths and IGA stores. Alternatively, you can always make your own by blending dried red lentils in a high speed blender or food processor :) (I’m not sure how other lentil flours would go in this recipe but I’d say they will have similar results).

    It was only last week I saw lentil flour in the supermarket and wondered what it was for as I have not really come across it before – this pizza base sounds lovely and I love your avocado rose – so pretty

    Oh yumm! That sweet potato pizza looks amazing! I love that you even made lentil flour in the blender. I haven’t worked with lentil flour at all. And that avocado rose on top is so pretty! That’s a real piece of art :)

    Kyra, this looks so good–and healthy, too! Can’t wait to try it. Would be so good with smoked sun-dried tomatoes and basil!

    So excited to try this new pizza crust. Though I still need to try the basic lentil one too! Your pizzas are always delicious!

      Awww thank you so much Mary! This pizza crust is closer to traditional pizzas, but the other lentil pizza crust is more thin and crispy…I love both of them :D I still need to get some psyllium husks so I can try your vegan mozzarella!

    These look so yummy! I always get so many sweet potatoes at the end of my CSA season and I never know what to do with them. This is probably a good idea. Pinning this for when it is fall on the Northern Hemisphere!
