Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head Cauliflower
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 3 cups Fresh baby spinach
- 0.5 cup Coconut cream
- 3 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Remove the leaves and core from the cauliflower, then chop into florets. Pulse the florets in a food processor until it resembles rice.
Transfer the riced cauliflower to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high for 4-5 minutes until tender.
Allow cauliflower to cool slightly, then place in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible.
In a large bowl, combine the squeezed cauliflower, egg, almond flour, salt, and garlic powder. Mix until well combined.
Spread the cauliflower mixture onto the prepared baking sheet to form a crust, about 1/4-inch thick.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the crust is firm and golden brown.
While the crust is baking, heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the spinach and sauté until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
Add coconut cream, nutritional yeast, and onion powder to the pan. Stir well and cook for another 2 minutes until the mixture is creamy.
Once the crust is ready, spread the creamy spinach mixture evenly over the top.
Place the pizza back in the oven and bake for another 10 minutes.
Remove from the oven, allow to cool slightly, then slice and serve.
