Preheat the oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Remove the leaves and core from the cauliflower. Cut it into florets and place in a food processor. Pulse until it reaches a rice-like consistency.
Transfer the cauliflower 'rice' to a microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave on high for 4 minutes. Let it cool slightly.
Once cooled, place the cauliflower in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth, and wring out as much moisture as possible.
In a large bowl, combine the drained cauliflower, eggs, almond flour, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until you have a cohesive dough.
Spread the cauliflower dough onto the prepared baking sheet, forming a rectangle or circle about 1/4 inch thick.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
Remove the flatbread from the oven and let it cool slightly.
Drizzle olive oil over the flatbread and spread the hummus evenly on top.
Arrange cucumber slices, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and black olives over the hummus.
Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese and fresh basil leaves over the vegetables.
Cut the flatbread into pieces and serve immediately as open-faced sandwiches.
