Ingredients

• 3 medium-sized zucchini
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 large egg
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 0.25 cups grated Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Italian seasoning
• 0.5 cups pizza sauce
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (for topping)
• 0.5 cups pepperoni or other toppings of choice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Grate the zucchinis using a box grater, then place the grated zucchini into a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Squeeze out as much moisture as possible.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, salt, egg, 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Mix until well combined.

Step 4

Spread the zucchini mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming it into a circular pizza crust about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 5

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until it's slightly golden and firm to the touch.

Step 6

Remove the crust from the oven and spread pizza sauce evenly over the top.

Step 7

Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, followed by your chosen toppings (e.g., pepperoni, vegetables, or sausage).

Step 8

Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 9

Allow the pizza to cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
