This super easy Millet Flatbread Pizza Crust was inspired by my love for all things millet! Not unlike Quinoa, Millet is also a naturally gluten-free grain-like seed.

  • Reheat millet pizza in a 375 F oven for approximately 10 minutes.

Ingredients

  • Millet Flatbread-Pizza Crust GF, Vegan:
  • 1 cup millet soaked overnight or at least 6 hours
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp freshly ground pepper
  • 1 tbs Hungarian paprika
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • Cheesy Garlic Breadsticks:
  • 1 millet flatbread-pizza crust
  • 1 tbs olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded (this works great w/ vegan cheese alternatives too, I like Daiya)

Instructions

  • Rinse millet well, put in a jar or bowl and cover with cold water, cover and let sit overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Rinse and drain soaked millet. Place in a food processor with remaining ingredients. Blend until a smooth batter has formed.
  • In a round pan (I used a 9″ cake pan), place a sheet of well oiled parchment paper. Pour batter onto parchment paper and spread evenly if need be.
  • Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and carefully flip over (use a second sheet of oiled parchment to flip onto if need be). Bake for 10 minutes more.
  • Remove crust from oven and top with desired toppings (for my cheesy garlic breadsticks, see below).
  • Bake for 5 minutes more, then broil top for a few minutes until bubbling.
  • Cool, slice, and enjoy!
  • For Cheesy Garlic Breadsticks:
  • Heat olive oil over medium heat. Saute minced garlic for a few minutes.
  • Top pre-baked millet crust (see above) with sauteed garlic & cheese.
  • Bake for 5 minutes (@ 425F), then broil until bubbling & desired crispness is achieved.
  • Delicious as is, or dipped in ranch or marinara!
  • Cool, slice & enjoy!

    Hi. Do you possibly have a recipe for making millet pasta dough? Preferably only a few ingredients such as the millet flour, water and salt. I am trying to figure out the ratios. Thank you so much.

    1. Hi, JB! Sorry for the delay. I take time off around the holidays. Unfortunately, I do not have experience making pasta dough with millet flour specifically so I cannot say that it would work, but I do make pasta with GF all-purpose flour and I use 2 cups of flour, 1 cup of water, a pinch of salt and a teaspoon of olive oil. The flour I use when making pasta contains xanthan gum, so if you use millet flour, adding a binding agent such as xanthan gum or even some ground flaxseed might work better. If you try it, I would love to hear!

        Thank you Kristen! Yes I just realized you most likely take time off for the holiday, well deserved of course

        I totally appreciate your response. I am going to work on the recipe. If it comes out good I’ll let you know. However if it comes out of disaster I’m gonna keep it quiet lol.

        Thx for your help 😉

    Hello, can I use millet flour? If so, can you suggest the proper measurements if not the same as above, thank you ?

    1. Hi! To be honest, I haven’t tested it with millet flour so I would’t be able to say how well it would come out. If you were to try it, I would recommend adding a bit more water, as the soaked and blended millet makes for a rather wet batter. If you try it, I would love to hear! And again, sorry I couldn’t be of more help.

    Hi. I made this tonight & topped with my own toppings and enjoyed the flavor a lot (the only thing I changed was using just 1 tsp paprika)! However, the outer edges of the pizza crust were crispy and the insides a bit crumbly (I did soak the millet all day long and used a 9 inch dark colored metal cake pan). Is this supposed to be the texture? If not, any tips to avoid the crumbly texture? It held up pretty well and reminded me more of cornbread (which I love) but just wondering what I should be expecting for this crust. Thanks!

    1. Hi Maria – I’m happy you enjoyed it! It isn’t normally crumbly but usually smooth & slightly bread-like inside. I’m wondering if this might have something to do with the blender or food processor used. I would try blending it a bit longer next time! Thanks so much for the feedback, I appreciate it. 🙂
