Vegan Cauliflower crust pizza
INGREDIENTS
·Ground flaxseeds or chia seeds (2 tbsp.)
·cauliflower rice (1 16-ounce bag)
·flour of your choice (1/4 cup)
·nutritional yeast (2 tbsp.)
·garlic powder (1 tsp.)
·onion powder (1/4 tsp.)
·Italian seasoning (1 1/2 tsp.)
·tahini (1-2 tbsp.)
·tomato chutney (1/2 cup)
·mushrooms, sliced (4-6)
·dry-packed sun-dried tomatoes, chopped (2 packs)
·sliced olives (1/4 cup)
·pineapple, chopped (1/2 cup)
·spinach (1 cup)
METHOD
1. In a small bowl, mix together the ground flax or chia with 3 tablespoons of water. Refrigerate.
2. Microwave cauliflower rice for 8 minutes or cook on the stove for 5 minutes. Once cool, place cooked cauliflower in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out all excess liquid. (Squeeze really hard! It needs to be very dry). Transfer to a mixing bowl, add in refrigerated ground flax (or chia) and stir in remaining ingredients. Add 1-3 tablespoons of water (as needed) to mix the dough. The drier the dough, the crispier the crust will be.
3. Preheat oven to 400 F. Turn a baking sheet face-down and line with parchment paper. Place dough ball in the center and cover with more parchment. Flatten and smooth into a 9-inch crust (about 1/4-inch thick). Remove top piece of parchment
(reserve) and bake 18-25 minutes, or until edges are slightly brown and crispy. Remove crust from oven and place parchment back on top. Put a baking sheet on top and turn over so the crust is on the new baking sheet. Remove top parchment (the old bottom piece) and discard. 4. Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce on crust (you may not use the entire 1/2 cup). Add toppings except spinach and basil, if using, and bake 5-10 minutes more, or until toppings are warm.
5. Add spinach and basil, if using, before serving (or bake and cook 1 minute more).Sprinkle pizza with additional nutritional yeast, if desired.
