INSTRUCTIONS

-
- Add oats to a mini blender or food processor and pulse until a fine powder.
- Add to a bowl along with the baking powder and pinch of salt and mix
- Add the egg and yoghurt and fold until all combined.
- Set aside for approx 30 mins. (this helps the oats to soak and expand a little)
- Preheat oven to 200c/400f (gas mark 6)
- Cut a sheet of parchment paper, big enough for a 9-inch pizza
- Spray on the parchment paper with spray oil and carefully spoon the dough into an equal ball on to the greased sheet.
- Then spray over the top with more spray oil and then place another sheet of parchment over the top.
- Gently flatten down and then use a rolling pin to roll over the top of the parchment paper until you have a rough 9-inch pizza base. (Do not handle the dough with hands you must use parchment paper)
- Very slowly and carefully, lift off the top parchment paper, you can use a spatula if any areas have stuck to carefully lift off the top sheet of parchment paper.
- Transfer the sheet of parchment paper with the dough to a baking tray. You can neaten up the pizza base with the spatula by pushing it inwards to make it more round.
- Bake for approx 15-20mins until lightly golden and firm.
- Add pizza sauce, mozzarella, fresh parsley or basil and place back in the oven for 10 mins until cheese is melted.
- Slice, serve and enjoy
