Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium Cauliflower head
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 8 ounces Assorted gourmet mushrooms (such as shiitake, cremini, and oyster)
- 2 cloves Fresh garlic, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 5 leaves Fresh basil leaves, for garnish
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the cauliflower into small florets, removing the stem. In a food processor, pulse the cauliflower until it reaches a rice-like consistency.
Transfer the processed cauliflower rice to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 4 minutes. Allow it to cool slightly, then place it in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower, almond flour, egg, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, and sea salt. Mix until a dough forms.
Place the cauliflower dough on the prepared baking sheet. Form it into a flat, round crust approximately 1/4 inch thick.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until it is firm and golden brown.
While the crust bakes, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 5-7 minutes until they are tender and golden. Stir in the fresh thyme and red pepper flakes.
Remove the baked crust from the oven. Evenly distribute the mushroom mixture over the crust.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes.
Remove from the oven, drizzle with lemon juice, and garnish with fresh basil leaves.
Allow the pizza to cool slightly before slicing into portions and serving. Enjoy your Whole30 Gourmet Mushroom Pizza!
