Zubereitung von Linda's Zucchini Crusted Pizza With Fresh Basil
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Lightly salt 2 medium zucchini (about 1 pound), grated, and let sit for 15 minutes to draw out moisture.
- Squeeze out excess moisture from the zucchini using your hands. (Place a handful of zucchini in your palm and squeeze firmly, repeat as needed).
- In a large bowl, combine: 3 large eggs, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Stir in the squeezed zucchini.
- Lightly brush a 9x13 inch baking pan with olive oil.
- Pour the zucchini mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is dry and firm.
- Brush the crust with 1 tablespoon olive oil and broil for 5 minutes under moderate heat. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Spread 1/2 cup pizza sauce (or your preferred sauce) evenly over the crust.
- Add your favorite toppings! (Suggestions: 1/2 cup sliced olives, 1/2 cup sliced green bell peppers, 1/2 cup sliced onions, 1 cup sliced mushrooms, 1/2 cup marinated artichoke hearts, 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese).
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from oven and scatter 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves over the pizza.
- Return to the oven for 2-3 minutes to wilt the basil slightly.
- Let cool slightly, then cut into squares and serve hot with a fork and knife.
