How to Make a Dark Raw Chocolate Pizza

Raw Chocolate Pizza

Pizza was never my favourite food. I’ve since made peace with it by making my own gluten free and cauliflower versions that I decorate with fresh, whole, natural ingredients that are nutrient dense and pack a punch of flavour; yummy clean eating that doesn’t cause digestive (or emotional) upsets.

Being the raw chocolatier and recipe creator that I am, it was only time that I came up with a raw chocolate version. And here it is, perfect for any occasion!

Quick points:

  1. This recipe uses a similar base to my Raw Chocolate Brown Rice Puff Bites.
  2. Also yummy is my Healthy Chocolate Mousse for inspiration and cacao deliciousness!
  3. Don’t forget my Basic Dark Chocolate with my updated recipe for a smooth, snappy and polished raw chocolate!

All these plus many, many more healthy, delicious and nutritious recipes are included in my upcoming Easy Chocolate Delights eBook!

If you’re interested in learning how to make smooth, good quality raw chocolate you can take a look at my Easy Chocolate Delights or Specialty Chocolate Making workshops.

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup melted coconut oil (if less cacao intensity is preferred, add 1 cup coconut oil)
  • 1 ½ cups cacao powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
  • 1 teaspoon lucuma powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (not essence)
  • Pinch of celtic or himalayan salt
  • 5 tablespoons pure maple syrup

Raw Christmas Pizza Slices

Method:

Add the ingredients to a mixing bowl in order. Quickly stir through and combine well.

Let the chocolate mixture sit for a few moments to thicken while you line a solid round pizza tray with good quality baking paper. Give the mixture another stir through then pour it into the centre of the baking paper.

Use the back of a spoon to gently move the mixture in a circular motion whilst spreading it outward into a round circle. Allow the mixture to remain about an inch thick.

Decorate by sprinkling a selection of cranberries, pistachios, almond slivers and coconut flakes evenly across the top. Add any additional toppings to your “pizza” before transferring into the freezer.

Allow to set for 15 minutes before cutting through into individual slices and returning to the freezer.

Eat or serve directly from the freezer!

Note: If you’re a fan of food grade essential oils, you could experiment with orange, tangerine, fennel and cinnamon!

Enjoy!
