Zucchini-Crusted Pizza

Yields1 Serving
 Olive oil and flour for the pan
  1/2 C grated parmesan
  2 C packed, grated zucchini (about 2 medium-large zukes)
  2 T olive oil
  2 eggs, beaten
  1/2 C flour
  1/2 C grated mozzarella
  Optional: pinches of basil, parsley, and/or rosemary
1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Generously oil a 10-inch pie pan and coat lightly with flour.

2

Combine the zucchini, eggs, flour, mozzarella, parmesan, herbs, and 1 T olive oil in a bowl and mix well.

3

Spread into the prepared pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until golden brown. About halfway through the baking, brush with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Remove from oven. When it has cooled for about 10 minutes, use a spatula to loosen the crust from the pan, so it won’t break later.

4

Top with your favorite pizza items (like thinly sliced garlic, scallions, olives, tomato sauce, mozzarella, mushrooms, etc!) and bake at 400 degrees F until heated through.
