Ingredients
Scale
CRUST
120g cauliflower florets made into cauliflower rice
60g almond meal
Pinch of salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
1/2 tbsp of rosemary finely chopped
1 organic egg
TOPPINGS
2 cups tightly packed of spinach
1/4 cup of brown onion diced
5 slices of tomato (approx. 1/2 cm thick)
3 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp ground pepper
1/8 tsp of salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 degree Celsius.
- Wash the cauliflower and cut the florets into chunks. Add them to a food processor (alternatively you can use a grater) and pulse until you make cauliflower rice.
- Add the cauliflower rice to a milk bag, and squeeze out all the water (see notes).
- Add all the crust ingredients to a large mixing bowl, and combine well with a rubber spatula or with the hands. The dough will be quite wet. Don’t worry as this is normal! It will cook through in the oven.
- Lay a baking tray with baking paper. Add a drizzle of olive oil and spread it through using a brush.
- Form a ball with the dough, and press on the baking tray, to form the base. The base should be approx. 1/3 cm thick.
- Cook in the oven for 30 minutes. Check after 20 minutes to make sure it’s cooking well and not burning. Once it’s ready remove from the oven (see notes).
- While the dough is cooking let’s prepare the spinach topping! Add the spinach, onion, olive oil, salt and ground pepper to a large mixing bowl, and combine well with the hands. You want to make sure all the spinach are soaked with the olive oil.
- Once the base is ready, add the spinach topping evenly to cover the entire base, and the slices of tomato on top.
- Cook for another 30 minutes or until is cooked through. Both the spinach and tomato should be very well roasted (the spinach should look dark and the tomatoes dry).
- Enjoy!!
Notes
- Squeeze out all the water of the cauliflower rice, using a milk bag or gauze. This step is super important to ensure the cauliflower is dry, and the base holds well together!!
- Before adding the toppings, check that the base isn’t stuck to the baking paper. If it is, carefully separate using a flat tool like a knife or spatula. It will be easier to do it now than with the toppings on!
- Get your hands dirty and mix well the spinach topping! If your hands don’t end up green, you haven’t put enough effort! 😝
- Make sure the spinach and tomatoes are well roasted, before taking it out of the oven.
