I am seriously so excited about these pizza bases. They taste insanely delicious and even better, hold well, so you can treat them like a traditional Italian pizza and fold it up to eat it, and if you haven’t been to Italy then you probably don’t know what I am talking about. But oh, em gee, what a dream. Let me explain why I called them Silly-Nana Pizzas. They made with only psyllium husks and green banana flour, so what better name then Silly-Nana to confuse anyone who is yet to know what is in them!
INGREDIENTS
1 cup green banana flour
2 Tbsp psyllium husk powder
2 cups of water
1 tsp salt
Few cracks of pepper
Optional additions: 2 tsp garlic powder, 2 tsp Italian herbs or a combination of oregano, thyme and rosemary.
METHOD
1. Preheat your oven to 140 degrees celcius. We are doing a low temperature so we can keep the resistant starch properties in tact, just in case!
2. Combine all of the dry ingredients in a bowl.
3. Add in the water, slowly mixing it through, giving the mix a little time to absorb the water so it eventually forms a dough.
4. Pick the dough up, and massage it through one more time just to ensure all the mix is well combined. If the dough is still to sticky, then it may be that too much water was added, so just add 1/2 to 1 tablespoon more of green banana flour, and mix through.
5. Break off handfuls of the dough, roll into a ball, and place on baking paper that you can create your pizzas on.
6. You can use your hands or a rolling pin to flatten out the pizzas till they are quite thin, or as thin as you would like them anyway! If the dough is sticking to the rolling pin, then use another sheet of baking paper over the pizza dough, and then continue rolling on top. Once your desired shape and thickness, place in the oven.
7. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes, and then top with your chosen ingredients, and then place back in the oven for another 10 minutes, or until the toppings are warmed through, or your cheese has melted.
