Ingredients

Crust
  • 3 3 eggeggs
  • 5 tbsp 5 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 3 tbsp 3 tbsp (20 g) coconut flour
  • 1 tsp 1 tsp (5 g) baking powder
  • ½ tsp ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp ½ tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp 1 tbsp olive oil
Toppings
  • 8 tbsp 8 tbsp tomato paste or green pesto or cream cheese
  • 1 tsp 1 tsp sea salt
  • ¼ tsp ¼ tsp ground black pepper
  • 8 oz. 225 g shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 oz. 50 g grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tbsp 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 12 12 olives or shrimp or cherry tomatoes or air-dried chorizo

Instructions

Instructions are for 4 servings. Please modify as needed.

  1. Whisk together eggs and mayonnaise in a bowl. Mix dry ingredients separately and fold in the eggs. Mix into a smooth batter. Let sit for a couple of minutes.
  2. Add the batter to a hot frying pan with oil. Should be 8-10 crusts, about 3 inches (8 cm) in diameter.
  3. Fry for a minute on each side until golden. Place the crusts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) using the oven's broil setting.
  4. Apply a layer of tomato paste, pesto or cream cheese, depending on if you want a red, green or white pizza. Or mix as we have done!
  5. Add topping of your choice. Sprinkle salt, pepper and basil or oregano on top. Add the cheese and sprinkle olive oil on top.
  6. Bake in the oven for 5-10 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the pizzas have turned a nice color. Serve immediately!

Tip

You can use any topping for the mini pizzas. We have chosen a mixture of seafood, meat and vegetarian options. Other nice alternatives are cooked ham, bacon, tuna fish. You could even make the green pizzas “more green,” by using green bell peppers, chili peppers, or artichoke hearts. Onion and garlic are perfect on these too!

When it comes to the cheese, a mix of Mozarella and Parmesan cheese is optimal, but you can also choose something else. Blue cheese, feta cheese or goat cheese will provide a great flavor addition if you like more flavorful cheeses.

    I always get excited when a crust recipe uses coconut flour (I most readily have this on hand). The dough mixed up easily and fried nicely...I did mine a little larger and they puffed up so in the future I'd portion accordingly. Coconut flour lends a dryness to bread dishes and this is no exception. It's not unpleasant you just easily recognize it. On a side note I think the dough would be excellent as a biscuit! I used my basil tomato paste (OMG yum, the basil lends a natural sweetness), provolone cheese, and a little bacon. The cheese was fine, but the bacon was devine! The smokiness seaped into the crust and also lent flavor to the sauce. I think bacon would be a staple when I make these, and yes I plan on making these again. The dough is great when you don't have much time and would like to prepare some ahead for pizzas, sandwiches, biscuits substitute. Very good recipe that satisfied my pizza craving.

    I've just made the bases only and a good tip for disguising the coconut taste is to use garlic powder. I've even eaten three cold with my brunch and without any toppings they were delicious, I bet they would be good toasted and topped with butter!

    I didn't like this crust at all!! My bf loved it, though...so I gave it 3 stars. I am going to try a different crust recipe in the future.
