Low carb egg free pizza base recipe

[GnomeDePlume]

Does anyone know a good one please? I had a go at one yesterday but it had a slightly fish taste so ended up scraping the topping off and eating that. Even the dog wasnt interested and being a labrador he will normally give most things a try.

Not vegan but cant eat egg.

I do the fathead pizza without an egg sometimes, it seems to work ok!

You can use chicken breast as a base. Slice it almost, but not quite, in half, so that you can open it out like a book. Put it between two pieces of cling film and beat it with a rolling pin so that it becomes flat and thin.

Fry it quickly in a frying pan so that it's brown on both sides, and then top with tomato sauce and whatever else you'd have on a pizza, and then finish off the cooking in the oven.

Thank you both. I was starting to worry that it was an unachievable dream!

There's also Nigella's 'meatzza' too

Thank you. I am a bit concerned about the high fat aspect of low carbing as I also have high cholesterol and a fatty liver to get under control!

For low carb leave out the breadcrumbs and oats on Nigella's recipe.. I have used ground almonds and grated mozzarella instead and it works .. however Ive not tried it without egg..

@GnomeDePlume Do you have a family history of high cholesterol, or is it 'just' high cholesterol? If the latter, then low carbing/high fat should see a reduction there

... and it should also improve your fatty liver disease

No need to worry about it being a high fat way of eating.

@BIWI thank you for the link, that is interesting.

No family history of high cholesterol that I know of. Shortly before Christmas I was diagnosed with T2 Diabetes (now on metformin), high cholesterol and fatty liver. In the background I also have a blood clotting disorder for which I take warfarin.

Low carbing is a whole new world for me. Years ago DH and I tried the Atkins diet. I found the lack of bread especially difficult. Not sure why but this time I'm not missing it anything like so much. The pizza base hunt is just that we traditionally have pizza on Friday.

You could try Lo Dough

It's expensive, but it might just be what you're looking for!

I've had other cauliflower pizza bases and they are surprisingly good!

Many thanks. Unfortunately the two supermarket options were still quite carb heavy.

I have placed an order with LoDough for some pizza bases, brownie mix and chicken coating. I am very excited!

They wont arrive in time so tomorrow I am going to have a go at an egg free fathead pizza base.
