Pizza without Flour? It’s Possible!

Can you make a pizza without the classic flour? Yes, you can! Without offending the pizza purists, one of the most beloved dishes of Italian cuisine, it is possible to prepare an excellent alternative without using flour.

The most well-known variant, especially among gluten-free options, is one that uses a base of cauliflower, perfect for the winter season. It’s also a way to enjoy a tasty dish while being mindful of your diet. Additionally, cauliflower has many nutritional benefits; it is antioxidant, detoxifying, and anti-inflammatory.

A way to enjoy pizza while keeping an eye on your diet: cauliflower has a low caloric content but a high satiety power.

Of course, the texture of the base will not be exactly the same as a "classic" pizza, but the cauliflower will still make it tasty and crunchy without significantly affecting the flavour. Once you have the base, let your imagination run wild!

Ingredients for the base (serves 6):

• 1 cauliflower
• 2 eggs
• salt
• parmesan
• oil

Preparation:

Wash the cauliflower well, remove the leaves and stems, and steam it. Once cooked, dry it very carefully (the consistency of the dough depends on it!) and chop it finely.

The secret is to dry the cauliflower well to achieve a crunchy and dense mixture.

Add two eggs, a pinch of salt, and grated parmesan, measuring it to obtain a sufficiently dense dough. Start spreading the dough on parchment paper, using a spoon of oil to help: bake at no more than 150° for about half an hour. At this point, the base is ready! Just fill it as you like and bake again for about ten minutes.
