Ingredients


Base

  • 2 cups almond meal
  • 2 tablespoons lupin flakes (optional)
  • ½ cup psyllium husk
  • 2 teaspoons gluten free baking powder (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal (optional)
  • Oregano/dried herbs (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
  • Ground black pepper
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup filtered water
  • Olive oil (to spray/coat at end)

Topping suggestions

  • Pesto sauce
  • Roasted or grilled vegetables
  • Avocado, sliced
  • Spinach
  • Spring onions, finely sliced
  • Clove garlic, finely sliced
  • Sliced meat
  • Bell pepper, finely sliced
  • Black olives
  • Olive oil, to spray on top

Method

  1. Combine all the base ingredients into a ball and roll out to about 4mm thick (to avoid the mixture sticking, roll between 2 pieces of parchment paper). Finish by spraying lightly with olive oil.
  2. Bake at 180-200°C for approximately 10 minutes or until golden brown.
  3. Then spread the pesto sauce over the base leaving 1cm around the edge.
  4. Arrange the rest of the selected toppings over the pizza and bake for a further 20 minutes.

Inspiration

  • Divide the mixture into individual pizza rounds or whatever shape you like.
  • Once the base is baked it can be frozen for later use.
  • Experiment with your own toppings i.e. dairy free cheese, cold cuts of meat, fish, additional vegetables or herbs.
