A healthy recipe for a gluten-free, low-sugar dessert pizza.

Last week we got you hooked on pizza for breakfast now it’s time for pizza for dessert!!  Why not?! 🙂 

And you probably realize that our dessert pizza is not your average recipe. We kept the recipe clean.

Clean?  Yes! Clean in the sense it is homemade and made from mostly real ingredients, except of course chocolate chips. Those are for fun. 

We knew we wanted to create a fun pizza recipe that was sweet but not too sweet for you to enjoy. You deserve a little something sweet after a long day of work, right?

We went back and forth a few times on what exactly we wanted to do with our idea of a dessert pizza. We kept changing our minds on flavors…toppings…etc. Finally, we came to a conclusion – a chocolate dessert granola pizza with a rich velvety cream! Yes, we put granola on our pizza. Why? Because we wanted that little crunch and texture.

We are calling this a dessert pizza, but honestly you can enjoy it for breakfast. A great reason to have chocolate in the morning.

How to make gluten-free grain-free low-sugar pizza to have for dessert!

Move over chocolate brownies…

chocolate chip cookies…

and hello dessert pizza.

Haha!  Who are we kidding?  We still need our brownies and cookies. We are the Purely Twins aka dessert lovers.

But it is nice to have a different option 😉

This was our first time making our beloved plantain bread – chocolate. It has been something we’ve always wanted to do. Finally got around to doing it! Why did we wait so long?!?

The crust is soft with a rich, creamy cashew frosting that melts in your mouth followed by an explosion of different flavors and toppings.  We’re getting hungry just thinking about this treat!

If you aren’t a fan of granola on top of your pizza… shame on you…  Just kidding! Like most of our recipes you can top this chocolate pizza crust with any of your favorite toppings or sauces.

Make the crust out of our parsnip bread  and omit the chocolate chips and use raw cacao nibs and omit the sweetener in the cashew cream and up the vanilla. #winwin
