Gluten Free Coconut Flour Pizza Crust

Makes approximately two 8″ thin crust pizzas

Ingredients:

4 good quality eggs, preferably organic grass fed
1/4 cup coconut flour
1/4 cup plain yogurt
1 tsp organic onion powder
1 tsp organic oregano
1 tsp organic basil
1/3 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
2 cloves organic garlic, minced
1/4 tsp sea salt

Instructions:

Whip the eggs in a large bowl with the yogurt and sea salt.   Add the coconut flour and whip until very smooth with no lumps.    This may take a few minutes to accomplish as it takes some time for the coconut fiber to absorb the liquid.    Blend in the onion powder, oregano, basil, garlic, and parmesan cheese.

Line a pizza pan with parchment paper.   Gently pour about 1/2 the batter onto the paper lined pan.   Use a spatula or other kitchen utensil to spread the batter into an 8-9″ circle that is quite thin (the thinner the better).

Bake at 400F for 10 minutes. Remove pan from oven, add homemade pizza sauce, cheese and other toppings as desired. Place back in the oven on broil for about 8 minutes more.

Repeat this process with the remaining half of the coconut flour batter.
