If you're looking for a healthy alternative to traditional pizza, you've come to the right place! Our broccoli pizza without flour, prepared with the Thermomix, is an excellent choice for those looking to maintain a healthy diet without sacrificing delicious taste.
For the pizza base you will need:
For your preferred toppings:
First, wash and cut the broccoli into small florets. Place the florets in the Thermomix and chop them at speed 5 for about 10 seconds until they have a rice-like consistency.
The chopped broccoli now needs to be cooked. Put it in the microwave for about 5 minutes or steam it in the Thermomix at 100°C for 5 minutes.
This is an important step! Take a clean kitchen towel and wrap the cooked broccoli in it. Squeeze out as much water as possible. This prevents the dough from becoming too moist.
Return the dry broccoli to the Thermomix and add the mozzarella, egg, salt, pepper, and your chosen spices. Mix everything at speed 4 for 20 seconds until well combined.
Preheat your oven to 200°C. Spread the dough mixture on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and shape it into a flat pizza base. Bake the base for about 15-20 minutes until it is golden brown and firm.
Now you can top your pizza as you like! Spread the tomato sauce, grated cheese, and vegetables on the pre-baked base. Bake the pizza for another 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden.
Yes, you can freeze the pre-baked pizza base. Wrap it in foil and store it in the freezer.
Cauliflower is a great alternative with a similar consistency and taste.
Store leftover pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It stays fresh for about 2-3 days.
Of course! You can manually chop the broccoli and mix it with the other ingredients.
Yes, broccoli pizza is a nutritious and fun way to get kids to eat more vegetables!
