Ingredients

Scale

For the crust:

For the toppings:

  • 1 cup Follow Your Heart vegan parm shreds
  • 2/3 cup tomato sauce 
  • Fresh basil
  • Red pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees with racks in the top and bottom positions.
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and dust it with almond flour.Lay out a large piece of cheesecloth or a clean kitchen towel and, using a box grater, grate the zucchini onto the towel.
  3. Gather the sides of the cheesecloth or towel and squeeze out excess liquid over the sink.
  4. Put the zucchini in a large bowl. I used a the pre-spiralized zucchini from Whole Foods, skip the spiralizing and simply drain. 
  5. Combine the egg powder and water, whisk to remove clumps. Add to the bowl, along with the almond flour, oregano, garlic powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and pepper.
  6. Mix well until it takes on a dough-like texture. If the mixture is too wet, add a tablespoon or two more almond flour.
  7. Transfer the dough to the baking sheet and form it into a 10-inch round or two 5-inch rounds. I took a lil almond flour in my hands and lightly pressed it in to any spots that still looked damp to absorb residual moisture.
  8. Bake on the lower rack of the oven for about 15 minutes, until the edges are browned and the crust is firm. Remove from oven, let slightly cool, then flip and bake the opposite side for 5-7 minutes
  9. Remove the pizza from the oven. Top with tomato sauce, vegan parm, and bake for about 7-10 more minutes or until cheese is melted.
  10. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with a little more salt and pepper, fresh basil, dried oregano and red pepper flakes. Serve hot.
