Zucchini Crusted Pizza SP7

The crust is made of zucchini, a healthy, low-carb substitute for traditional pizza dough! Don’t worry if you don’t have access to Pecorino. Just replace it with Parmesan. And for the final touch, don’t forget to drizzle your pizza with extra virgin olive oil once it has finished cooking.

  2. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  3. After the 30 minutes, drain the liquid from the zucchini then press the zucchini in a sieve to drain the remaining liquid.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the zucchini, flour, 1 tablespoon Parmesan, egg, pepper, and oregano. Using a 12-inch non-stick pizza pan or a baking sheet, spray or brush on a thin layer of olive oil. Pour the zucchini batter in the center and spread over the surface of the baking pan.
