Breakfast Pizza with a Cheesy Crust

Harvest Kitchen
This recipe makes one pizza to serve 4 people (or two teenagers, or just my son).
Course Breakfast
Servings 4 Serves

Ingredients
  

  • 1 head cauliflower about 600g – finely processed
  • 5 eggs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
  • 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup tomato relish or sauce nice and spicy
  • 100 g of baby bocconcini or 100g fresh mozzarella
  • handful of fresh basil leaves

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C, and grease a 22cm round pizza or 22cm flan tray. I find the flan tray is the best because the bottom is loose, so you can easily get the pizza out when it is cooked!
  • Microwave the cauliflower for 5 minutes, allow to cool and then squeeze as much moisture out as you can. Mix in one of the eggs. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Spread the mixture out on the pizza or flan tray, making sure there is a bit extra at the edge. Carefully put the Paremsan cheese around the edge and then cover with the excess cauliflower mixture – this will make the cheesy crust.
  • Bake in the oven for 20 minutes. Take out ready to cover with your toppings. At this point you can freeze it.
  • Spread your relish or pasata over the base, then the grated cheese, finally arrange slices of mozzarella around the top.
  • Carefully make four impressions in the pizza and crack in the remaining eggs.
  • Bake for another 10 – 15 minutes, or until the egg whites are cooked properly.

Notes

You can leave the eggs off the pizza if desired. Substitute some hot smoked salmon, or sliced chorizo sausage.
