Thin and Crispy Pizza Base

Thin and crispy pizza base – something that is so simple to make but often gets overlooked.

When it comes to pizza, everyone has their personal preferences. Some like a thin and crispy base, others like a thick base. Some like a stuffed crust, some don’t eat the crust. It is truly an independent choice, and a choice that many are passionate about.

Over here at Nutrition and Cake, we love a thin base pizza. Thin and crispy is our favourite. It is light but you also get to taste the toppings more, and the more toppings the better! This pizza base recipe is large, thin and crispy. It is almost like a tortilla base, to put it into perspective.

You don’t need any fancy equipment, just a rolling pin and something to combine the dough with. Elysia put this recipe together and it has changed Hannah’s life. Hannah is dairy intolerant and would never buy store bought pizza’s or bases. She likes to make food from scratch but never attempted to make her own base before. Until now that is!

We hope you love the pizza base recipe and that you get creative with your toppings! Be sure to tag us in your creations over on Instagram, account @nutritionandcake. Enjoy!
