Buckwheat Pizza Crust

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F (232 degrees C) and line a 9 inch round pizza tray with parchment paper. Set aside.

Step 2

Add the flour, salt and water to a large bowl and mix with your hands until combined. Then tip out the dough to a clean surface that has been lightly floured.

Step 3

Knead the dough, using your hands until you have a somewhat smooth ball. At this point, adjust the water or flour if needed. If the dough is too sticky, sprinkle a little extra flour and knead it in. If the dough is too dry and not holding together, add a teaspoon of water at a time until you have a playdough consistency.

Step 4

Now place the ball of dough on the sheet of parchment paper you set aside earlier on a flat surface, like a kitchen countertop. Use a floured rolling pin to stretch the dough to the edges of the parchment paper. Then slide the parchment back onto your pizza pan.

Step 5

Bake the buckwheat pizza crust for 5-6 minutes and remove it from the oven. Then remove the parchment paper (for a crispier crust), top your pizza as desired, and bake an additional 2-4 minutes. Enjoy!
