Creating the Crust “Dough”

  1. First, line parchment paper on a baking sheet and preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Next, put salt, baking soda, and dried herbs into the coconut flour in a bowl. Mix it well.
  3. Then, take another bowl and beat the eggs in it (or pour in your egg substitute). Mix the melted coconut oil and use a blender to mix it well.
    • Note: To create a thick batter, gradually combine the wet components with the dry ones. Keep stirring constantly. While the batter initially appears dry, it will become stale once the coconut flour absorbs the moisture.
  4. Next, gradually add 1/4 cup of warm water to the batter. You may need a varied amount of water based on the type of coconut flour you will use. Add additional water, bit by bit, until the batter becomes spreadable.
  5. Finally, set it aside to give the coconut flour enough time to absorb the liquid once it becomes smooth and spreadable.

Baking and Preparing the Coconut Flour Crust and Pizza

  1. First, prepare the baking sheet, spreading the batter in a circular motion with a spatula or your hands. Leave a ¼-inch border all the way around. When making a crust, you need the edges a bit thick.
  2. Next, bake the crust in the oven for 15 to 18 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the crust is firm.
  3. Then, allow the crust to cool after removing it from the oven. Your coconut flour pizza crust is ready!
  4. Next, add your favorite pizza toppings, and then place the pizza back in the oven.
  5. Then, bake the pizza for 10 to 12 minutes.
    • Note: Let the cheese melt, and cook the toppings according to your taste and preference.
  6. Finally, remove it from the oven and slice it for serving to your friends or enjoy it alone.
