The coconut flax pizza crust is one of the most popular recipes on my blog! So many people have reported back that they loved it and were so glad to have pizza on Phase 3 of the HCG Protocol.
Tonight I made it into a heart shape for Valentine's Day. Heart Shaped Pizza Love!
Coconut Flax Cheesy Pizza Crust (personal pizza size)
1 cup Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
1 Egg
1 Tbsp Coconut Flour
1 Tbsp Flax Meal (grind flax seeds in coffee grinder or vitamix)
1/4 tsp Baking Powder
1/8 tsp Garlic Powder
1/8 tsp Basil
Preheat oven to 350*. If you have a baking stone, put it in the oven to preheat as well.
Mix cheese, egg, coconut flour, baking powder and spices until well combined.
Press out on a piece of parchment paper to about 1/4 inch thick. Pick up parchment and stick it in the oven on the hot stone. If you don't use the stone method, put the parchment on a baking sheet and into the oven.
On the stone, 15-20 minutes should be enough to cook both sides of the crust. On a baking sheet, bake about 15 minutes, then flip the crust over to bake the other side for another 15 minutes or until it's golden brown.
Remove from oven, top with sauce (my recipe here), cheese and toppings (meats should be precooked) and return the pizza to the oven to melt the cheese and warm up the toppings.
I used a little heart shaped cutter to cut my pepperoni :)
