Cauliflower Pizza Base

We still eat pizzas on Saturday night, mostly homemade , usually the bases are made from a yeasty dough prepared in the bread maker, but last night I decided to make an additional base from cauliflower, to avoid an overload of wheat and gluten.

Ingredients:

½ cauliflower, split into florets 
2 eggs, beaten 
½ onion, finely diced



Method:

Set the oven to pre-heat at 200C.

Grease and line a tray with baking parchment.

Use a food processor to chop the cauliflower very finely, then transfer to a bowl and mix with the egg and onion. Add some herbs such as a teaspoon of dried thyme leaves and some salt and pepper. Mix well  then tip onto the prepared tray and spread out with the back of a spoon  to form the pizza base, about 5 mm thick. Bake in the oven for about 25 minutes or until lightly browned.

Remove from the oven and spread with tomato paste and your favourite toppings. (For suggestions see my post "Saturday Night Pizzas"http://angiesrecipejournal.blogspot.com/2011/09/saturday-night-pizzas.html).

Bake in the oven a further 10 minutes.
