It’s about that time to celebrate red, white, and [blue]berries.
The irony of writing that opening line and realizing that there are in fact zero blueberries on your pizza. Um.
When I saw that sunflower seed butter (AKA sunbutter) on sale at Whole Foods Market Upper Arlington for a whopping $1.99 a pound, I immediately wanted to slather it on everything.
Toast.
Cherries.
Bloobs.
Pizza. The breakfast kind.
Remember my beloved chickpea flour breakfast pizza? Of course you do! This is like his sweet cinnamony little sister. It’s one of those recipes where I put “breakfast” in the title because it’s slightly sweet but not quite dessert-esque, hence: break the fast.
This recipe is beyond forgiving. If you’re a cinnamon monger like mwah, then double the cinnamon. Feeling spicy? Add some raw cacao and a tiny pinch of cayenne. Want to live on the wild side? Double the maple syrup and call it a HASHTAG TREAT YO’SELF.
Because lezbehonest…a “drizzle” of maple syrup is an invitation to treat your pizza like a pancake and drown that shiz.
Scoot your bottom over to Whole Foods and buy all the sunbutter in the land while you still can. You won’t find this stuff in the jar for less than three times the price. With nine grams of plant-powered protein, 20% of the daily value of vitamin E, and four grams of cholesterol-lowering fiber per serving, this stuff is a nutrition powerhouse. Sunbutter is a great option for those with nut allergies as well!
And I’m prooooud to be an American, where at least I know I’m freeeeee! And I won’t forget the… sunflower seeds.

Would almond flour br the right consistency for a substitute?
Hi there, I’ve never tried this with any other flour. I don’t think it would hold with almond meal. Sorry!
You KNOW I am loving the sound of this!!!
Have an awesome 4th, Alexis 🙂

Yum, yum, and YUM!!! Making this pronto… just bought sun butter at Trader Joe’s. I usually make my chickpea pancakes with water but I LOVE the idea of making it with almond milk- must make it so tender and flavourful. Thanks for another winner… and your pix are beyond gorgeous. 🙂 xxx
Yayyyy! Almond milk gives it a fun twist 🙂 Enjoy!

Okay, I am officially moving purely for the price of Sunbutter. In australia it’s the cost of a small child and in New York, it’s the cost of George Bush.
You’re moving purely so you can eat Alchemy’s curried chickpea salad, don’t even lie.
