Instructions
 

Creamy Garlic Sauce

  • To prepare the roasted garlic cream sauce, you will first need to soak and soften raw cashews. If you already have plain cashew cream prepared, you can skip the soaking and use 2 cups of cashew cream in place of the whole cashews.
  • Next, brown the garlic by placing the oil and garlic in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook until the garlic becomes fragrant and begins to turn golden brown. Stir consistently to prevent sticking.
  • Then add the soaked and rinsed cashews or plain cashew cream into a blender with the roasted garlic, lemon juice and salt. Blend until smooth.

Almond Flour Flatbread

Spicy Buffalo Chickpeas

  • In a bowl, combine chickpeas, oil, salt and spices. Mix well, making sure the chickpeas are evenly coated.
  • Then spread the chickpeas evenly onto the baking sheet and bake for 25 - 30 minutes in an oven preheated to 350°F.

Roasted Buffalo Cauliflower

  • In a bowl, combine the cauliflower florets with oil, salt, and spices. Mix well, making sure the cauliflower florets are evenly coated.
  • Then spread the cauliflower evenly onto a baking sheet and bake at 350°F for 10 - 15 minutes in a preheated oven.

Assemble Pizza

  • Coat the flatbread crust with a generous amount of garlic cream sauce. I usually use about half of what the recipe makes and save the other half for dipping!
    Then, add the rest of the toppings, adding as much as you like. I like to load my pizza with as much as will fit.
  • Once you've loaded your flatbread with toppings, place it in an oven preheated to 350°F and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the edges of the crust begin to brown.

Notes

This pizza is best served warm and fresh. However, it also makes great leftovers for lunch or a quick reheated dinner. It can be refrigerated for up to 2 days if kept in a well-sealed container.
Other vegetables can be used or added. Broccoli can be substituted for cauliflower, and other collard greens can be substituted for the kale.
Barbequed Chicken is a delicious addition or substitute for the chickpeas if you do not need this pizza to be vegan or vegetarian.
Other flatbread or pizza crust can be used in place of the almond flour flatbread.
