Serves: 1 pizza
Ingredients
1.5 cup blanched almond flour
¼ cup ground flaxseed
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp oregano
½ tsp rosemary
1 tsp garlic powder
2 eggs
½ teaspoon good quality rock or sea salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
Heat oven to 180C
Whisk eggs in a large bowl then add the rest of the ingredients
Mix well with your hands or a spoon until a dough is formed
Get a sheet of baking parchment and spread it out flat, sprinkle with a little bit of olive oil on top to prevent dough from sticking
Form the dough into a ball and place in the middle of the baking sheet
Place another sheet over the top and use a rolling pin to flatten the dough until it's thin and somewhat circular (the thinner you make it the crispier it will be). Pinch in the edges to create a crust
Remove the top layer of parchment and add the base to the oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and the edges are crisping up.
Remove from the oven, add desired toppings and place back in the oven for 10-15 minutes until cooked.
Notes
SUGGESTIONS FOR TWEAKING - if you don't have almond flour you can use ground almonds, but it will have a richer, more biscuity texture and taste. You can also try adding ½ - 1 cup of cauliflower rice (cauliflower that has been blitzed in a blender until formed into a 'rice' texture) to bulk out the recipe and make it into a larger base or two pizza bases.
