Ingredients

6 cups (600g) cauliflower florets, roughly chopped

3/4 cup (90g) almond meal (ground almonds)

1/2 cup (40g) finely grated Parmesan

3 eggs, lightly beaten

Sea salt and cracked black pepper

8 stalks kale, trimmed

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

3 cloves garlic, sliced

1/2 teaspoon dried chile flakes

1 tablespoon lemon zest

1/4 cup (20g) finely grated Parmesan

1 (125g) ball buffalo mozzarella, torn

1/3 cup small basil leaves

Method

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). To make the cauliflower pizza crust, lightly grease two 12-inch round pizza trays and line with non-stick baking paper. Place the cauliflower, in batches, in a food processor and process until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. Transfer to a large bowl, add the almond meal, Parmesan, egg, salt and pepper and mix until a soft dough forms. Divide the mixture in half and press into the prepared trays. Bake for 20–25 minutes or until golden and crisp.

Place the kale, oil, garlic, chile and lemon zest in a bowl and toss to coat. Divide the mixture between the bases and top with the Parmesan. Bake for 8–10 minutes or until the kale is crisp. Top each pizza with mozzarella and basil to serve.
