Instructions
TO MAKE FLATBEAD:
- Preheat oven to 450’F and place a pizza stone, cast iron skillet, or very thick pizza pan into oven to heat up.
- Gently heat up coconut milk and ghee in a small sauce pan until very warm but not boiling. Combine tapioca flour, sifted coconut flour, and salt in a large bowl.
- Pour coconut/ghee mixture on top. Mix until thoroughly combined.
- Allow to sit for a couple of minutes to cool and for coconut flour to absorb.
- Add beaten egg and mix again until full combined.
- CAREFULLY remove hot stone/pan from the oven, cover with unbleached parchment paper, and pour mixture into center. Using a spatula, evenly spread mixture until it is about 1/4 inch thick. (you can also prepare flatbread on a cutting board lined with parchment paper and
- CAREFULLY slide the parchment paper and flatbread onto hot stone in the oven.) Bake for 10 minutes and remove from oven.
TO MAKE CARAMELIZED ONIONS:
- Saute onion rounds in 2 TBS ghee or coconut oil for 20-25 minutes on low-medium heat. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
TO MAKE DAIRY FREE PARMESAN:
- Process cashews, nutritional yeast, and salt in a food processor until you have a coarse, even consistency- like crumbly Parmesan cheese. Set aside.
TO MAKE SAUCE:
- Saute spinach in 1 tsp of fat of choice for about a minute, until it starts to wilt. Add spinach and rest of sauce ingredients to food processor and process until creamy smooth.
TO ASSEMBLE PIZZA:
- Decrease oven temperature to 400’F. Spread spinach artichoke sauce onto pizza. Add caramelized onions and optional chopped tomato.
- Bake for 10 minutes, or until pizza is done to your liking. I prefer to bake it right on the rack for a crispier bottom.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle with dairy free Parmesan.
Notes
Time saving tip: Everything for this pizza can be made ahead of time and assembled for a quick and easy meal. Simply prepare and store sauce, dairy free Parmesan, and caramelized onions in air-tight containers in fridge. The flatbread can sit out on the counter, covered, for a whole day.
