Serves: 1
Ingredients
  • Crust:
  • 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
  • 2 tablespoons almond meal flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon raw honey
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil, melted
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • ½ teaspoon italian seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • Toppings:
  • ¼ medium pear, sliced thinly
  • ¼ cup thinly sliced white onion
  • 2 tablespoons crumbled goats cheese (I used peppercorn)
  • ½ teaspoon coconut oil (for sauteeing onions)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Cover a pizza pan with parchment paper.
  3. In a medium bowl combine flaxseed, almond meal, italian seasoning, baking powder, and salt.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together egg, honey, and, water, and coconut oil.
  5. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry and let sit for 2 minutes.
  6. Slowly pour the mixture onto the parchment paper and smooth into a circular shape with the back of a spoon (or you could do a square or rectangle... whatever you want!)
  7. Bake in the oven for 6 minutes or until edges start to brown very slightly.
  8. Meanwhile, in a pan sautee the onion with a little oil over medium high heat and add little bits of water, cook until the onions are soft and brown, about 5 minutes.
  9. Once the crust is done, remove from the oven. If you would like an extra crispy crust you can flip it and put it back in the oven for 3 more minutes, then remove again before applying the toppings.
  10. Add the onion, sliced pear, and goat cheese to the crust.
  11. Set the oven to 500 degrees at broil, and place the pizza with the toppings back into the oven for 3 minutes until the cheese starts to melt and the edges brown a little more. (Keep a close eye on the pizza while it is under broil!)
  12. Remove from the oven, slice, and devour! (top with a little arugula, or balsamic glaze if you desire!)
