The Breakfast Pizzert
Wait, what the heck is a pizzert???
Pizzert/ noun.
Dessert pizza. A pizza topped with anything sweet. Bonus points for chocolate.
(Yes, I very much did just make up that definition 
. But it should be a real word!)
Above, a Blueberry Muffin Pizzert
Customizable Breakfast Pizzert
Serves 2
…unless you want to eat the whole pizza so you can say “I can’t believe I ate the whole thing” like in the commercial!
- 70 grams (1/2 cup) whole-wheat pastry flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- sweetener (for people with normal tastebuds, use 4 tsp sugar or 1 tsp stevia)
- 100 grams (a little under 1/2 cup) water (or other liquid, such as juice or non-dairy milk)
- 35g (2 tablespoons) unsweetened applesauce (or try using coconut oil, pumpkin, canola oil, mashed banana, or even baby food!)
- 1/8 tsp salt
- spices/extracts if you wish (I like adding a little cinnamon)
- A few handfuls ______ (Fill in the blank! Raspberries? Chocolate chips? Chopped apples, walnuts, and raisins? Anything goes!! It’s your pizzert!)

Fiber: 3g

Update: click for a Gluten-Free Version.
To make: 1. Mix everything together and pour into a pan.
(I lightly sprayed my pan with coconut oil spray.) OR some of you have said your pizzerts stick to the pan. In this case, put it onto a sprayed or oiled baking sheet instead, and use a rolling pin to flatten.
2. Cook in an UNpreheated oven at 420 degrees F for 10 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
3. Then you get to play!!
I brought out the pizza cutter, just for the occasion 
.
Menu Ideas:
1.Elvis Pizzert: Add chopped peanuts + banana to batter. Ice with Banana Butter.
2.Tropical Pizzert: Sub coconut oil for applesauce, add shredded coconut. Top with pineapple + coconut butter.
3.Savory Pizzert (which kinda goes against the whole “pizzert” concept lol): Simply leave out the sweetener.
4.Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Pizzert: Add chocolate chips, walnuts, and oats to the batter
What would you put on/in your pizzert???

See you on the other side… the dessert side.

I’m thinking a nutty chocolate pizzert sounds grand to me!
i made a pan fried version of this yesterday. ok, so it was pancakes… but it was the same exact basic recipe. I added to the spelt flour, cocoa powder, vanilla stevia, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, coconut extract and used coconut milk beverage as the liquid. then i made a sauce with melted dark chocolate, coconut oil and coconut butter. um, heaven.
I’m going to make this RIGHT NOW. lol. It looks soooo yummy I can’t resist! I think i’ll make a blueberry one, with some form of nut butter on top for icing
nom nom nom!!
Thanks for the recipe!!!

Katie, you’re a genius – Blueberry Pizza for breakfast?!
I’m too lazy to whip one up right now – send me some, please!
That looks amazing! Great idea!
hmmm i think i’d put peanut butter and strawberries on mine
I have no idea what I’d put on mine. I’ll think about and drool.
this recipe looks fabulous, lady!
you are a GENIUS, my friend
Pardon me while I clean the drool off my keyboard.
this looks sooooooooooooooooooooo good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love it!!!! Easy and yummy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
love ya girl!!!!!!!!!
Must try this! I might top mine with some cashew “cream cheese” and sliced kiwi & strawberries:)
That looks so yummy! it would probably be fun to eat with chopsticks
Mmm, I ‘m thinking this would be PERFECT for a weekend breakfast. How exciting!!
THis sounds AMAZING!
looks awesome!! thanks for the recipe katie.
I really want to try this out! Would regular flour be ok?
Do you have to use whole wheat pastry flour or can you use something else?? Like regular all purpose flour or a mix of that and oatmeal??
Hey Lorin!
You definitely don’t have to use ww pastry flour!
I’m sure regular white flour would work fine. The only flour I’d caution against using is regular whole wheat flour, because it might yield a gummy texture. (But if you like “gummy” textures, you can still use it.)
Oh, Katharina, I emailed you and basically said the same thing as my comment above
I made it this morning and subbed in 1/4 cup corn meal for the flour (ran out of ww pastry). I added in berries and skipped the banana/applesauce part for the first try. Little guy loved it.
Great recipe! I made a gluten free version this morning and it turned out really well!
I have gluten allergies also. Could u please tell me how u made it? Did u just sub for brown rice flour?
WOW! we gotta try this amazing recipe. Thanks chicka
I made this pizzert as a breakfast today and it was soooo incredible delicious – thank you very much for this recipe.
i made a blueberry pizzert and it was delicious. awesome recipe!
Aw yay! I’m so excited you made it!!
Hi!
I’m just wondering what size baking pan you used for the recipe. I’m hoping to make regular thickness pancakes. Thank you!
I use an 8-inch pan
Thank you so much!
Made the recipe this morning. Tasted amazing!
Aww yay, I’m always so excited when someone tries something and it turns out well. Thanks for telling me
.
I AM EATING YOUR PANCAKE PIZZERT AND I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO HAPPY IN MY LIFE! http://movesnmunchies.wordpress.com/2010/12/20/i-dont-even-have-words/
oh… and i will be eating all of it
Sounds ah-freaking-mazing!
I HAVE to try this! I’m thinking pumpkin seed butter, bananas, cinnamon or/and? dark chocolate
And coconut butter… Oh gosh, I think I’ll just have to top each slice differently 
Pumpkin seed butter sounds amazing! I don’t think I’ve ever had that before.
It’s currently after 3 am. I can’t sleep. And I’m making a pumpkin spice pizzart with a small sprinkling of mini choco chips. Weeeee!
OMG, I used double the liquid and underbaked a bit like the poster you linked and it’s like GOOEY warm COOKIE DOUGH.
OM NOM NOM.
This is a keeper, Katie! Thanks.
hey!
This looks awesome! Can you cook it in the microwave? I dont have access to an oven at school….
Thanks!
Hey beana,
.
I’m so sorry I forgot to answer this earlier!
I’ve never cooked the pizzert in the microwave… but you could try! And if it works, let me know so I can try it too
Whee!
I just came over from Berlin’s Whimsy (blog) following the link on her post about the pizzert. Your pizzert and Berlin’s look scrumptious! I look forward to trying this recipe out later today made with almond or coconut flour (can’t eat grains), pumpkin, and chocolate chips. Yum!
Hey CCK!
Just made these Red Velvet Pancakes: http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2011/02/15/vegan-red-velvet-pancakes/
What about a Red Velvet Pizzert: double the Red Velvet Pancake recipe, then bake in a cake pan like the pizzert. What do you think? I think it must be made!
New way to pass time on the treadmill (I’m trying not to call him dreadmill anymore)- Thinking of pizzert mix-ins and toppings.
lol I do that on runs! But then I forget them because I get too many good ideas
. They need to invent a tape-recorder Garmin!
I want to try this recipe!! And I would LOVE to win the Jocalat bars
definitely the chocolate hazelnut or the chocolate coffee!!
Oops, just ate a whole one to myself, heehee. Cinnamon and raison flavour topped with gingerbread butter, mmm! Managed to get ground ginger in my eye tho, not so clever (the packet poofed at me)!
Ooo that does not sound good! Well, the pizzert sounds VERY good. But the ginger-in-your-eye, not so much!
Katie, do you bake these in a standard 8 or 9 inch cake pan? And if you do, do you think it would work just as well in a square 8×8 inch glass baking dish?
Yup, a standard-sized pan… but actually I’ve been loving the option I wrote about in this post: to put it on a baking sheet. It’s much easier to take out that way! Oh, but to answer our question, I think it would work your way too
.
How can I get my pizzert to have more of a crust on the top?
Love your blog, btw
Hey Emilie!
I’m not really sure what you mean by “crust” on the top… can you be more specific as to what you mean? Do you mean you want it crispy?
Katie…what does it mean for an oven to be unpreheated? I wanted to make this for breakfast today….but I just wasn’t sure what you meant.
As soon as you turn the oven on, put the pizzert in. Don’t wait for the oven to heat up and beep when it reaches the temperature you set it for. Does this make sense?
OH okay! That’s what I figured but I just wanted to make sure! Thanks Katie! So excited to try this out!
Do you think the dough could be folded over to make a calzone-like creation? and maybe put the blueberries inside? Maybe adding yeast would be ideal?
Help!!
Hey Ashley!
I think that sounds like a delicious idea! If you make it, let me know how it turns out!
(I don’t think you’d need yeast. But honestly, I have never made anything with yeast… I need to get over my fear of using it. I’m sure it can’t be as complicated as I’ve built it up to be in my head lol!)
That sounds really cool.
I must try with the raspberries I have in my freezer!
Perfect late night snack for two! Thanks
You are so welcome!!
I just made a chocolate chip one for my 13 year old son and 10 year old daughter. My daughter wanted me to suggest to you her recipe. Melted sugar free chocolate chips swirled on top so every bite will have chocolate.
Sounds good to me!
You raised a genius!
Wowwww. I just made this for breakfast and it was amazing!
I put a drizzle of coconut and vanilla extract and undercooked it a little bit, so that it would be doughy/gooey. I topped it with banana choc. pb butter, marshmallow cream, and cool whip. Microwaved it all, OMG. It turned into a gooey mess that was simply deeeeeelish. Thank you so much.
I’m so happy you liked it! And lol I love gooey messes!
OH.MY.GOD. I just made this for brunch with some chocolate chips and blueberries, and I topped it with some Greek yogurt and fresh sliced peaches. It was HEAVENLY!!
Thank you for the recipe!!
I’m so happy you liked it!
Oh my gosh, does that huge dessert pizza REALLY serve only two people? Wow I so have to try this!!!
LOL two, or even one. A lot of people eat it in one serving
.
I just made this for breakfast and it was delicious! I left the batter plain since I couldn’t decide what I wanted to put in it. I ended up topping it with melted banana, 1 T tofutti, 1 T of almond butter mixed in the food processor and then drizzled 1 t of maple syrup over the whole thing. When I eat the other half I will definitely add some berries on top
It was creamy deliciousness, thank you! Oh and I spread it on a silicon mat on a baking sheet and it turned out great. ~Leslie
OK I just saw this and all I can say is… I’VE BEEN MISSING OUT!
Wow, Katie, this looks so amazing. And the nutritionals are stellar- which is always a bonus
wow I’m so excited to try this! it would make an excellent breakfast tomorrow
Quick question: is the nutritional information per serving or is it for 2 servings?
It’s for 1/2 the pizzert.
I was wondering if the nutrition info is for the entire pizzert or just 1 serving?
1 serving
Just made this with raspberries mixed in and topped with chocolate syrup. It was quite yummy
Definitely going to have to make a chocolate chip version soon.
Aww yay! I’m so glad you liked it!
Oooh! I finally made this this morning with blueberries,cinnamon,almond butter and bananas! Sooo yummy! I think it’s my new favorite recipe of yours!
That makes me so happy!!
Happy Tuesday, Maddie
This is so yummy! I’ve already made it 3 times. Today I used sprinkles and topped it with coconut butter, chocolate chips, and shredded coconut. I like to eat it straight out of the pan — makes me feel like I’m really pigging out! Sort of like a giant warm healthier cookie.
You had me at coconut butter and chocolate chips
.
I’m eating this riiight now! It’s so good!! I added dark chocolate chips, blueberries, and chopped strawberries. Win.
Mmm everything’s better with chocolate chips. Good call!
I’ve made a few versions of this before, but I made a chocolate banana one for breakfast today! So good!!!!! My favourite part is how customizable this is!!!
Thanks for all the great recipes!
You are so welcome!
I think I’m going to try to make a pumpkin pizzert for breakfast tomorrow due to my pumpkin obsession…..omg I’m so exciteddddd! Is it morning yet????
Hehe it is now… well, here in Texas anyways
.
It is now devoured. It was amazingggg!!!!! Definitely becoming a breakfast staple.
Awww yay!!!
Hey thanks so much for sharing!
I just wonder if it is possible to use this recipe and shape the dough into little cookies instead of a pizzert?
I don’t see why not! Baby pizzerts… too cute!!
Mmmm I made this for the first time today using oat flour, stevia, almond milk, and coconut oil. I topped it with strawberries and cheesecake frosting
So far, the few times that I’ve used stevia, it doesn’t seem to be sweetening anything at all
But anyways, I had one question: to melt the coconut oil, should I scoop it out of the jar and microwave it separately or can I just microwave the whole jar?
You can do either
. You only have to melt it a few seconds though. Maybe like 20?
What sort of texture/consistency does this have? Could I make it into a scone? (:
Probably not. It’s more like a pancake texture. But these are kinda like scones:

(Try almonds in place of pecans, and use coconut oil.)
Hey Katie!
I finally got to making mini pizzert cookies, they were great!
Thanks so much for sharing the recipe.
I blogged about the mini pizzerts: http://healthyisfun.tumblr.com/post/11493613332/chocolate-chip-cookies-original-recipe
Keep up the good work, I love your blog!
I’ve just started this recipe, using 100g frozen blueberries and adding a little more flour ((due to the water in the blueberries.
I have to rush off, so have left it unbaked in the fridge so that I can cook it when I get back. Looking forward to the results for breakfast tomorrow!!
Katie, is it OK if when I put the recipe on my page, I put a link to this recipe, please?? Quite new to the blogging world so I don’t really know the “rules”, as such.
Back soon!!
Jade C.
I’d be honored!
Mmmmmm I plan on microwaving this tomorrow morning for breakfast (thinking banana in the batter topped with your gingerbread butter) and I’ll let you know how it goes! I can’t anticipate it turning out bad
Even if it is a hot gooey mess, what’s better than eating a hot gooey mess for breakfast? haha
Update: Not only did it work, but it’s probably my favorite breakfast to date! I even used whole wheat flour and (although I enjoy dense bread) it was not too “gummy” at all
I’m so happy I may just have this for dessert tonight- ha breakfast and dessert the same?
