How to Make Broccoli Pizza Crust

Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or pizza pan.
In a large bowl, thoroughly combine 1 large head of broccoli (finely riced), 1 large egg, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup almond flour, and 1 teaspoon garlic powder. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Press the broccoli mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, forming a thin crust. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper and dried basil.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is lightly browned and firm to the touch.
Remove from oven and add your favorite pizza sauce and toppings.
Return to the oven and bake for another 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the toppings are heated through.
