Potato Pizza

I have had the Potato Pizza from The Vegan Swedes bookmarked in the "Recipes to Try" folder on my computer for some time. Today, I finally got around to putting a check mark next to it.  This was so simple to make and incredibly flavorful. Why'd I wait so long?

To date, I have been unable made a successful pizza crust.  I have only ever tried yeast based recipes and for whatever reason they never tend to work well for me.  I always seem to have a crust, that when baked turns into some sort of tower.  Someday I will figure that out.  For now, though I am very happy with this very simple non-yeast based crust.  Flaky and delicious! Next time I may add some fresh herbs into the crust, too.

Of course, I had to make two versions of this as Mr. Meat and Potatoes does not like onions. Indeed, you could leave the onions off if you would like but I don't know why you would-- the onions really make the pizza in my opinion!
Potato Pizza

For the crust (makes two):
1 2/3 cups all purpose flour
1//2 tsp salt
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tsp baking powder
2/3 cup non dairy milk (I used So Delicious Unsweetened Coconut Milk)

In a large bowl mix all ingredients together until a smooth dough forms. I used my hands to do this. Wrap in plastic and place in the refrigerator to rest while you prepare the topping.

For the Topping:

6 small- medium red bliss potatoes sliced thin (I used a mandolin)
1/2 medium red onion sliced thin (I used a mandolin)
1.4 cup olive oil
2 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped + extra for garnish
2 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper to taste

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

Mix all ingredients in a bowl and toss to coat.  Remove the dough from the refrigerator and cut into two pieces.  On a lightly  floured board roll out the first piece of dough until desired thickness (mine was about 1/4 inch or so).  Place 1/2 the potato and onion mixture on the pizza.  Repeat with the second ball of dough and the rest of the potato and onion mixture.  Pour any left over olive oil/seasonings over the two pizzas.  Place dough on a pizza stone and bake at 375 for approximately 30 minutes until the potatoes are soft and the crust nicely browned.

Garnish with chopped thyme, slice and serve.
