INGREDIENTS
1 cup riced cauliflower
1 whole egg
2 egg whites
1/4 cup almond flour
1/4 cup tomato sauce
2 oz part-skim mozzarella cheese
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup fresh basil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix the riced cauliflower, almond flour, whole egg, and egg whites until a cohesive dough forms. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
Transfer the cauliflower mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and press it out into a thin, even circle to form your crust.
Bake the crust for 12-15 minutes, or until it begins to turn slightly golden.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the tomato sauce evenly on top, leaving a small border along the edges.
Sprinkle the part-skim mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and immediately garnish with fresh basil leaves and a light drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
