It’s crispy on the outside, soft inside, and wholesome in every bite! 🤤 Whether you bake it thin and crispy or thick and fluffy, Sorghum Pizza Base never disappoints. 🧺 Ingredients You’ll Need Here’s everything you need to make a perfect Sorghum Pizza Base 👇 🌾 Dry Ingredients 💧 Wet Ingredients 👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Preparation 🕒 Step 1: Activate the Yeast In a small bowl, mix warm water, sugar, and instant yeast.

Spread your favorite pizza sauce, sprinkle cheese, and top it with colorful veggies like bell peppers, olives, mushrooms, and tomatoes. Bake again for 10–12 minutes or until the cheese melts and the edges turn golden.
