Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 50 g golden linseeds/flaxseeds
- 200 g mozzarella cubed
- 500 g cauliflower roughly chopped
- 1 tsp mixed dried herbs
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 egg
Instructions
- Makes 4x20cm or 6x15cm pizza bases
- Preheat oven to 200C
- Place flaxseeds into the mixer and mill 10 seconds / speed 9 / mc on

- Add cauliflower, herbs, salt, and egg and blend 10 seconds / speed 5 / mc on
- Scrape and repeat until all is finely chopped
- Divide the mixture for how many bases you want, place a portion onto a sheet of baking paper and cover with a second sheet, press using a chopping board to .5cm thickness
- Encased in baking paper, bake 15 minutes in the hot oven, carefully flip then remove the top layer or paper, continue cooking until golden all over
- Allow to cool enough to handle, then top with your favourite toppings, avoid very wet ingredients

- This base works great cooked on a hot stone, but we still always keep it on the baking paper until serving for ease of moving around

What can I substitute the Linseed for?
1 Tbs psyllium will do the job!
Can whole flaxseed meal by Bob’s Red Mill work instead?
yes, but flaxseed meal can go rancid so i prefer to grind it fresh, youll know if its bad as the smell is off putting
Hi, just wondering if these bases once cooked could be frozen?
Yes they can be for sure!
Can you sub the cheese with something else to make it dairy free?
One more egg and then enough almond flour to soak it up enough that you can handle it in a ball without it being too sticky should work
