Ingredients
- large head of cauliflower - 1 (approx. 1.8 lbs. / 840g)
- almond flour - ¾ cup (90g)
- garlic cloves - 2 (minced)
- herbs de Provence - 1.5 tbsp.
- egg - 1
- egg whites - 2
- BBQ sauce - ¼ cup (55g)
- cooked chicken - 2 ⅜ cups (300g) (shredded)
- small red onion - 1 (sliced)
- mozzarella or dairy-free alternative cheese - ¾ cup (75g)
Preparation Instructions
- 1. Heat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- 2. Chop the cauliflower into smaller bits and add into a high-speed blender or food processor. Pulse until you have cauliflower rice.
- 3. Alternatively many shops now sell cauliflower rice. Squeeze any excess water from the cauliflower rice into a paper towel.
- 4. Place the cauliflower rice, almond flour, garlic, herbs and eggs in a large bowl, season with salt and pepper. Mix everything until a smooth but moist batter forms.
- 5. Place the batter on a baking tray lined with baking paper and flatten it out, leaving the edges a bit thicker. Bake the crust in the oven for 25-30 minutes until the edges start to turn golden brown.
- 6. Next, top the crust with the BBQ sauce, chicken, onions and finally cheese. Return to the oven for another 10-15 minutes, until the cheese has melted and started browning up.
