Here’s what you need:
• 1 Tablespoon raw honey
• 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
• 1/4 cup warm, filtered water
• 3/4 cup blanched almond flour
• 3 Tablespoons coconut flour
• 1/2 cup arrowroot starch
• 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 omega-3 egg
• 1 Tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar •
1/2 cup organic pizza sauce (no sugar added)
• 1/2 cup ground sausage
• 1/2 cup green bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
• 3 Tablespoons sliced black olives
1. Preheat the oven to 220 degrees C. Lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil.
2. In a small bowl combine the honey, yeast and warm water. Mix carefully with a fork. Set aside for 5 minutes, until foamy.
3. In a medium bowl combine the almond fl our, coconut flour, arrowroot starch, and salt. Work out the lumps with a fork. Add the egg, olive oil and vinegar to the yeast mixture and mix to combine.
4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry. Mix well and form a ball of dough. Work the dough for about 30 seconds, smoothing out any lumps.
