Crispy Garlic Herb Cassava Crust Pizza

This gluten-free pizza alternative uses fresh cassava root to create a surprisingly crispy and chewy crust that rivals traditional wheat dough. Infused with garlic and dried oregano, the base pairs perfectly with classic tomato sauce and melted mozzarella for a guilt-free Italian dinner.

Ingredients

2 lbs fresh cassava (yuca), peeled
1 large egg
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 cup pizza sauce or marinara
1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. 1

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

  2. 2

    Peel the cassava root and grate it finely using a box grater or a food processor.

  3. 3

    Place the grated cassava into a cheesecloth or a clean kitchen towel and squeeze firmly to remove as much liquid as possible. The cassava should be dry and crumbly.

  4. 4

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the dried cassava, egg, olive oil, salt, garlic powder, and dried oregano. Mix well until a dough forms.

  5. 5

    Transfer the dough to the prepared parchment paper. Use your hands to press and shape it into a thin round circle, approximately 1/4 inch thick.

  6. 6

    Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is firm.

  7. 7

    Remove the crust from the oven. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the surface, leaving a small border for the crust edge.

  8. 8

    Top evenly with the shredded mozzarella cheese.

  9. 9

    Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  10. 10

    Remove from the oven, top with fresh basil leaves, slice, and serve immediately.
