COCONUT CRUST PIZZA

Sorry I've been so scarce... I was trying to think of a good excuse but there isn't one! To make up for it I'm going to give you a recipe for something that everybody craves at some point... pizza!

Now this isn't some crappy cauliflower and cheese pizza crust, (who wants to eat a floppy, chewy crust?), this is the real deal, or as real as it gets. Make sure to keep your base super thin - mine was a bit to thick this time and didn't crisp up as well as it normally does. Still yummy!


Makes 1 large pizza (I usually halve ingredients)

1/2 cup coconut flour

1 cup milk (full fat)

3 medium eggs

2 teaspoons garlic powder

½ teaspoon baking soda

1 clove garlic (crushed)

½ tablespoon rosemary (chopped)


Preheat oven to 180 degrees.

In a bowl, combine all of your dry ingredients (coconut flour, garlic powder, baking soda and rosemary) and set aside.

In another larger bowl, beat eggs, milk, and crushed garlic together.

Begin gradually adding your dry ingredients to the wet ingredients bowl and mix until well combined. The consistency will be more like a batter than a dough.

On a baking paper lined tray, pour your batter into whatever desired shape. Make it as thin as possible without there being any holes - this will help ensure a nice crust. 

Place in oven and allow to cook for about 10 minutes or just until crust forms.

Remove from the oven and flip over carefully.

Place back in oven for an additional 10 minutes or until crust is just turning golden brown.

Take it out and put what ever toppings you want on, then back into the oven until nice and crisp.

Please note these oven times are just a guideline - my oven is seriously sketchy so I don't really trust it and I go by how the pizza looks. So keep and eye on it!
