Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, combine 300g peeled and grated sweet potato, 50g all-purpose flour, 1 large beaten egg, and 1/2 tsp salt. Mix well until the mixture holds together.
  3. Step 3: Transfer the sweet potato mixture onto the parchment paper and press into a 9-inch round pizza crust about 1/4 inch thick.
  4. Step 4: Bake the crust for 15 minutes until the edges start to crisp and the surface firms up.
  5. Step 5: While the crust bakes, cook 4 chopped bacon strips in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
  6. Step 6: Remove crust from oven, spread 1/3 cup tomato sauce evenly over it, then sprinkle with 100g shredded mozzarella cheese.
  7. Step 7: Scatter cooked bacon over the cheese, then season with a pinch of black pepper and 1/2 tsp dried oregano.
  8. Step 8: Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Step 9: Let cool for 3 minutes before slicing and serving.
