What you will need

  • Pizza Crust
  • 4 small zucchinis
  • 1 tsp nutritional yeast
  • 3 Tbsp almond, whole wheat or chickpea flour
  • ¼ tsp baking powder
  • Natural Pizza Pasta Seasoning
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 1 egg (beaten)
  • Toppings
  • Pizza sauce
  • Mozzarella cheese
  • Mushrooms
  • Green pepper
  • Purple onion

Method

Start off by preheating the oven to 200°C and lightly grease a baking tray. Then, in a large bowl lined with a dish cloth, coarsely grate the zucchini. Use the dish cloth to squeeze out excess moisture from the zucchini. Then transfer the zucchini into a dry mixing bowl and add in the remaining crust ingredients. Gently stir until everything is completely combined.

Move the zucchini dough to the prepared baking tray and shape into a pizza crust. Bake for 10 -12 minutes until the edges of the crust are golden brown. Following that, spread pthe pizza sauce over the crust top with mozzarella and the vegetables – feel free to get creative and top the crust with any flavour combination your heart desires. 

 Lastly, sprinkle more cheese and grind over Naturals Pizza Pasta Seasoning. Bake at 180°C for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted and looks golden brown, then serve and enjoy.
