Ingredients
- 1 large zucchini ends removed
- 1 Tbsp. finely chopped fresh parsley
- 1 Tbsp. ground flaxseeds
- 3 Tbsp. water
- 2 cups hazelnut flour
- 1 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- ½ tsp. sea salt
- ¼ tsp. freshly ground black pepper
- 2 Tbsp. sesame seeds for topping
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
-
Cut zucchini into small pieces and blend until smooth (uncooked) in a food processor (resembling a soup consistency) for about 3-4 minutes.
-
Combine flaxseeds with water and let sit in a small bowl and set aside for ten minutes then mix well.
-
Combine zucchini, flour, flax, olive oil and parsley to create dough in the food processor; puree until very smooth. Transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet. Sprinkle the sesame seeds around the edges ‘crust’ and let sit on the counter for 20 minutes before baking.
-
Bake for 40 minutes then rotate the baking sheet and bake for another 15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Remove from the oven and cut into rectangle or square pieces. Serve.
