Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 1 cup Tapioca flour
• 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Water
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Raw cashews (soaked for 4 hours)
• 3 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 clove Garlic
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 2 cups Fresh spinach
• 0.5 cup Crushed tomatoes (unsweetened)
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet or pizza stone with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut flour, garlic powder, and salt.

Step 3

Add eggs, olive oil, and water to the dry mixture, stirring until a dough forms. Knead gently with your hands to ensure it's evenly mixed.

Step 4

Roll out the dough into a round pizza crust about 1/4-inch thick on the prepared parchment paper.

Step 5

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until it starts to firm up and lightly golden around the edges.

Step 6

While the crust bakes, prepare the cashew cheese by draining the soaked cashews and blending them with nutritional yeast, lemon juice, garlic, almond milk, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth and creamy, adding more almond milk if necessary to achieve a spreadable consistency.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix the crushed tomatoes with dried oregano and black pepper to create a simple pizza sauce.

Step 8

Remove the crust from the oven and spread the tomato sauce evenly over it.

Step 9

Dollop or spread the cashew cheese over the sauce, then top with fresh spinach leaves.

Step 10

Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the spinach is wilted and the edges of the crust are golden brown.

Step 11

Let the pizza cool for a couple of minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your paleo-friendly spinach and 'cheese' pizza!
