  • 1/4 cup of sesame seeds or linseeds
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • 1/4 cup pesto
  • 1 clove garlic
  • Salt and pepper

method:

  1. Preheat oven to180°C.
  2. Wash the cauliflower and cut into cubes. Place in a food processor and blend until pureed.
  3. Place the cauliflower into a tea towel and over the sink squeeze all the water out, put aside.
  4. Place the remaining ingredients in a bowl and combine.
  5. Squeeze the cauliflower for a second time to remove any excess water and add to the remaining ingredients. Combine well.
  6. On a piece of baking paper spread the dough out into an even circle. Try to keep the dough around 1.5 cm thick to avoid it from cracking once cooked.
  7. Bake the base for 15 minutes and then add the topping of your choice. Place back into the oven for another 15 minutes until cooked.
  8. Let the pizza cool for 10 minutes before serving.
