Makes 9 pinwheels: Vegan 🌱 BLW 👶🏼 Suitable 6+months
These 2 ingredient Sweet Potato Pizza Pinwheels are a beta-carotene powerhouse (the sweet potato, carrot, capsicum, & tomato paste)! Beta-carotene converts into vitamin A (retinol) in the body which is good for our eyes, skin, and immune system 👌🏼 They are a great snack or quick meals for little ones, perfect for lunchboxes, and are great to stock the freezer with.
These came about when I wanted something that was like normal pinwheels but we didn’t have any pastry, and the bonus of these is how simple and healthy they are – no additives or salt!! You can make this with oat flour also, the dough is just a bit harder.

These are so good! I made them for my 17 month old who loved them and of course mom had to try them too (they are beyond delicious) We will definitely be making these a regular meal in our house.
That is such good feedback. So glad you both liked them!x
My 14 month old loved these. I added grated zucchini, capsicum, mushrooms, and lentils. I think if I made again I would roll the dough even thinner as it was quite heavy but my little guy still ate a whole scroll in one sitting.
Good add ins 🙂 definitely trial and error dough some times x
These are super good. I admit I was skeptical making them, thinking they would be one of those “pizza” recipes that ends up being kinda funky, like a cracker or biscuit texture… but they come out nice and fluffy.
I used some leftover pasta sauce mixed with tomato paste for the sauce, a vegan melty mozz recipe that I usually have on hand, and added finely diced green bell pepper and olives.
I had to add a little extra flour for the dough to come together but it was fairly easy to work with. Will make again for sure!
Hi Taryn!
I’m so happy to hear you liked these (honestly, the amount of pizza things I’ve tried 😅. Glad these were a hit for you x
My dough didn’t turn out. It was very crumbly and I was unable to roll the ingredients. Tips to help with this next time?
Just made these for my 21 month old. He loved them as so did. Husband already asked when I’m making them next 😊 thank you for your delicious recipes.
Thank you for letting me know! I love hearing when they become a hit. They’re one of our families favourites too x
