Ingredients
- 2 free-range eggs, beaten
- 100g (3½oz) ground almonds
- 1 medium-sized broccoli
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
- oil, for greasing
- toppings of your choice
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/Gas Mark 4. Line a baking tray with greaseproof paper and grease with oil
- Blitz the broccoli in a blender. Transfer to a heatproof bowl, cover with clingfilm, then microwave for 5 minutes. Empty the steaming hot broccoli onto a clean tea towel and allow to cool. When cool enough to handle, squeeze all the moisture out. Mix well with the almonds, eggs and seasoning in a bowl.
- Place the mixture on the baking tray and shape into a pizza-base, with slightly thicker edges. Bake in the oven for 6 minutes, or until a little golden round the edges and crispy. Remove from the oven, top with your chosen toppings and return to the oven for another 5-10 minutes.
