Almond Flour Flax Meal Pizza Dough Recipe
Makes 1 pizza dough; Serves 2-4
Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cups almond flour
- ¼ cup ground flax meal
- ¼ to ½ teaspoon kosher or sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon aluminum free baking soda
- 1 organic egg, beaten with a whisk
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon seasoning of choice – Italian seasoning; roasted garlic powder (optional)
Directions
- Mix all ingredients together until they form a ball.
- Roll the “dough” into a ¼ inch pizza crust on a sheet pan with a silpat liner or piece of parchment paper.
- (To make this easier, top the dough with another piece of parchment paper when you roll it out; then peel off the parchment paper when you have it the way you want it.)
- Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Remove from oven.
- Top with your favourite “Maximized” pizza ingredients. Left-over “Maximized” ingredients are fine.
- Return the pizza to the oven for another 10-15 minutes (this is a slow, lower heat pizza).
