Cauliflower Pizza Crust
I am looking up recipe ideas for raw pizza crusts because I want to have a pizza crust that is low fat, veggie based and yummy.
I will need to experiment with the quantities of fat, nut and seeds added but I hope to create something that dries well in the food dehydrator, stores like a cracker, and is low fat so I can enjoy it everyday if I want.- see the complete recipe is at it’s original post: http://rawissexy.com/2012/04/vegan-cauliflower-pizza-crust.html
TO MAKE THE CRUST:
Grate up a head of organic cauliflower – you can do this in a food processor or by using a grater, or by using your vitamix, or just a big knife and dice dice dice – until it is in tiny rice-sized pieces. A key trick here is to get the cauliflower as dry as possible. So after it was grated up, I put it in a bowl, and put it on the stove top to mix with a spoon over heat for just a few minutes to get some of the moisture out. You could also pat it dry, ring it with a towel, use a hairdryer (just kidding).To the bowl of diced cauliflower I added 1/2 cup of gluten free organic old fashioned oats. This was just to help absorb some of the moisture from the cauliflower.
Then I added 3 flax-eggs. This is the binder.
What the heck is a flax-egg? It’s one tablespoon of ground flax for 3 tablespoons of hot water. So what I did was take 3 tablespoons of ground flax meal and put that into a mug. Then I boiled water in my tea kettle and poured roughly 9 tablespoons of hot water into the mug as well. Stir stir stir and after a minute or so, the flax-water combination will form this kind of sticky, gelatinous mixture. This is called a flax-egg because it’s a binder. It’s also healthy and not from an animal – yay! We win!Add that flax-egg mixture to the crust mixture and mix together with a spoon.
Add the seasonings. I added sea salt, pepper, nutritional yeast, oregano, basil, dried tomato seasoning and garlic powder.
I preheated the oven to 425 and placed my pizza stone into the oven to preheat for 15 minutes. Then I spread the crust mixture out on the pizza stone and baked the crust all by itself for 25 minutes. Next time I will probably bake the crust for 35 minutes. It was crispy on the edges, but it was soft/mushy in the middle, so the baking time needs to be watched and tested.
