Inside The Trending Sweet Potato Recipe That’s Taking Over Pizza Night

In a recent video, popular vegan creator Mark Thompson – known as Sauce Stache – demonstrates how to make a pizza crust using sweet potatoes. By boiling, mashing, and fermenting the potatoes overnight, he creates a light and fluffy crust with a subtle sweetness that may win over traditional pizza fans. Thompson also shares how to make a cashew-based vegan cheese topping for the pizza, which adds flavor and creaminess.

After letting the dough and cashew topping develop overnight, Thompson assembles the pizza with tomato sauce and canned mushrooms before baking it to golden perfection. Both a deep-dish and thinner version of the pizza are created, offering different textures and flavors to suit different preferences. Sweet potatoes might not completely replace traditional pizza dough, but they certainly offer a unique and flavorful twist to pizza night in Thompson's kitchen.
