Zucchini pizza crust
A guilt-free pizza option
Servings 4 people
Ingredients
- 700 g zucchini yields about 260g after draining
- 60 g flour
- 30 g grated cheese
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Grate the zucchini using a coarse grater.
- Salt the zucchini and let it drain in a colander for at least 30 minutes.
- Squeeze out the excess water by placing the drained zucchini in a clean cloth and wringing it tightly.
- You'll end up with the base for your pizza dough.
- Mix in the flour, egg, and olive oil, ensuring everything is well combined.
- Add the grated cheese and mix again.
- Spread the dough evenly in a well-oiled skillet. Take your time to spread it carefully, avoiding any gaps that could cause breaks. A silicone spatula or slightly wet hands will make this easier.
- Cook on medium heat until the crust is firm and begins to turn golden (lift gently to check), then flip it over and cook for another 5 minutes.
- Your crust is ready! Now, simply top it with your favorite ingredients and bake it in the oven like a regular pizza.
