Seeded pizza base

Why not make a healthy pizza base using seeds and oats? The texture is fantastic! We use wholemeal spelt flour but you can experiment with your favourite flavours.

Makes: 1 base

INGREDIENTS

2 ½ cups spelt or wheat flour plus extra for work surface

1 cup warm water plus extra as needed

2 tsp dried active yeast

1 tsp honey

1 tsp salt

2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

½ cup rolled oats

⅓ cup FreshLife Pumpkin Seeds

⅓ cup FreshLife Sunflower Seeds

METHOD

In a small jug or bowl dissolve yeast in warm water. Add honey and let sit for 5 minutes. Add salt and olive oil and stir to combine.
Add flour, oats and seeds and knead to a large bowl and pour in yeast mix. Knead in the bowl, adding water if necessary (you’ll want the dough a little wet as the oats will swell).
Turn dough out onto a floured work surface and knead for a few minutes. Place dough in a large oiled bowl, cover with a tea towel and leave to rise for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
