How-to

  2. In a large bowl, combine the spelt flour, veggie broth, avocado oil and sea salt. Add the water and yeast mixture and stir until just combined. Let rise for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  3. Preheat the oven to 375º F.
  4. Roll out the dough on parchment covered stoneware to approximately 1/4 inch thickness. 
  5. Spread the pesto (recipe below) on dough and top with your favourite toppings. 
  6. Bake for approximately 25-35 minutes, until the dough is crisping and the cheese is melted.
