Ingredients

• Cauliflower - 400 grams
• Almond flour - 50 grams
• Egg - 1 large
• Buffalo sauce - 60 ml
• Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
• Onion powder - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Pepper - 1/4 teaspoon

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Wash and chop the cauliflower into florets, then steam until tender (about 8-10 minutes).
3. Once steamed, allow the cauliflower to cool slightly, then use a clean kitchen towel to squeeze out excess moisture.
4. In a mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower, almond flour, egg, buffalo sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until a dough-like consistency forms.
5. Transfer the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and shape it into a round crust, about 1/2 inch thick.
