Insane Tahini Pizza
**This recipe was updated and edited on 03.31.2021
Ingredients: suitable for about 2 diners (As one round / rectangle pizza pan)
- 3 eggs
- 6 tablespoons raw tahini / almond butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup / honey (Sweetener isn’t a must, though I recommend keeping it)
- 3 tablespoons sesame for the bottom of the pizze (Not a must)
Ingredients for the Tomato Sauce:
I made the tomato sauce myself, but you can also get a store-bought one.
- 4 tablespoons tomato paste – a small paste can
- 5 tablespoons non-dairy milk / regular / water
- 1 crushed garlic clove / ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- Pinch of salt
- ½ teaspoon oregano (If you like it)
- 300g shredded cheese. You can choose: Yellow cheese / mozzarella / parmesan (Or combine the different types)
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 355°F (180°C) on turbo mode and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- Begin by making the pizza “dough”. Put all ingredients in a blender or a bowl and mix well until forming a thin and smooth mass with no lumps.
- Smear a little olive oil on the bottom of the baking pan and spread 1½ tablespoons of sesame in the pan.
- Pour the mixture we’ve made into the pan, and smear it with a spatula into the thickness and shape that you like. I smeared my mixture into a round shape, so it would look like a pizza. The mixture can also be smeared into a rectangle shape as big as the baking pan.
- Put in the oven for between 5-7 minutes of initial baking. The pizza dough should be dry and stable, that’s the sign that it’s ready.
- In a small bowl mix all sauce ingredients into a smooth and red mass, and place all the topping we like to add on our pizza.
- Now it’s time to build the pizza. Take the pizza out of the oven after its initial baking, How do we know it’s baked? Its top part will be dry when touched with a finger. Smear the tomato sauce on top of the pizza dough and scatter the shredded cheese that you chose on it. If you like to add toppings, this is time to place them on top of the cheese.
- Put the pizza in the oven on the highest rack for between 3-5 more minutes until the cheese melts and the dough begins to slightly change its color to a darker tone.
Take out of the oven, cool for a little while, cut and gobble this divine pizza.
A little extra from me:
- Can be kept in the fridge in a sealed box for up to 3 days.
- The pizza can go in the oven for initial baking in advance, before the meal, and only close to meal time build the pizza and bake for the second time.
- I recommend grinding the pizza “dough” in the blender. Grinding it gives the dough a marvelous airiness and uniformity (Can be grinded in a “shake” blender or with a hand blender). In case you don’t have a blender try mixing well using a beater until forming a uniform and smooth mass.
- It’s really tasty to warm the pizza in a panini press, make sure to put parchment paper on both sides.
