Hi dear friends! It´s time for another epic recipe, today a pizza with a light crunchy crust, veggie toppings, and a homemade cream cheese.
I have this one as my new favorite pizza recipe, one that definitely will be on the menu every week from now on!
Usually, the crust comes out quite heavy when I make gluten-free pizza, but this one was light and held together very well! I only used oat flour, flaxseeds and psyllium husk for the dough, and if you haven´t tried that yet, then this is something really worth trying! I can imagine that this also works for sweet recipes, and for pies! Haha, I am getting new ideas while I am writing this.;)
If you have been following me for a while, you know how much I love simple recipes and healthy ingredients. This one is no exception. I make pizza almost every week, and love to try new combinations. But, I always top my pizza with avocado! I just love it, it makes it so fresh and is a great substitute for cheese.
Oh, and did you know cheese made of cow-milk, is very addictive? That's why so many struggles the most with cheese when they turn vegan, the cheese is such a delicious food that you can´t imagine to live without because it has been around your whole life. But, I have great news for you! After a while without cheese, you won't even remember the taste of it, and actually, start to feel disgusted by the look of it. That is what happened to me, and I am so grateful for my cheese-free life! (I saw lives, our planet, my health and my money).
Ready for some healthy comfort food vibes? Here it is!!
Remember to enjoy your food and life!

- water (add little by little, about 1/4 cup)
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
Cream Cheese
- 1 cup white beans
- 1/2 cup aquafaba (the liquid that is left after cooking your legumes, I simply cook my white beans (for about 1 hour) after soaking them overnight, than save some of the liquid to use for dips, hummus or baking.)

Toppings to add when the pizza is baked:

Method:
- Blend together the ingredients for the cream cheese until smooth, and set aside.
- Blend or mix the dry ingredients for the pizza crust well, than add the water, little by little until it sticks together and you can knead the dough.
- Knead with your hands (let your kids help you! They will love it!) for some minutes.
- Press out the dough on parchment paper, and make a nice evenly pizza crust.
- Preheat the oven to 200 degree celsius.
