For the crust

  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
For the pizza
  • 1/2 cup tomato sauce
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese Can be substituted with dairy-free cheese.

  • 1/4 cup sliced cucumbers
  • 1/4 cup sliced red onions
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinaigrette Drizzle over the salad.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a blender, combine rolled oats, Greek yogurt, egg, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, and dried basil. Blend until you achieve a smooth, thick batter.
  3. Pour the oat mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading it out to form a round pizza crust about 1/4 inch thick.
Baking
  1. Bake the crust for 15-20 minutes, or until slightly golden and firm to the touch.
  2. Remove the crust from the oven and carefully spread tomato sauce evenly over it. Top with mozzarella cheese and your selected toppings.
  3. Return the assembled pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serving
  1. Once done, slice the pizza and serve hot.
  2. In a large bowl, toss together mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onions.
  3. Drizzle balsamic vinaigrette over the salad and toss to combine for a refreshing side.
  4. Serve the salad alongside the oatmeal pizza to complete your meal.

Notes

Ensure the crust is baked long enough to firm up; underbaking can lead to a soggy bottom. Experiment with spices to suit your taste; adding a pinch of chili flakes can give it a nice kick. For added nutrition, throw some spinach or kale into the salad for extra greens.
