• 12 Ingredients
• 6 Method Steps

• 1 head (1.2kg) cauliflower, cut into small florets
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten
• 1/2 cup almond meal
• 2 cups pizza cheese, grated
• 1 tsp dried mixed herbs
• 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 400g butternut pumpkin, peeled, cut into 2cm cubes
• 1/3 cup Mutti Tomato Passata
• 1/2 cup pizza cheese, grated, extra
• 4 slices gluten-free prosciutto, torn
• 100g fresh ricotta, crumbled
• 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
• Select all ingredients

• Step 1
  Process cauliflower in a food processor until very finely chopped (you'll need 4 cups in total). Place in a microwave-safe bowl. Add 2 tablespoons water. Cover bowl loosely with plastic wrap. Microwave on HIGH (100%) for 8 minutes or until tender. Transfer cauliflower to a large sieve. Drain, pressing cauliflower with the back of a spoon to remove as much liquid as possible. Transfer cauliflower to a large bowl. Cool for 15 minutes.
• Step 2
  Preheat oven to 220C/200C fan-forced. Line 2 large baking trays with baking paper.
• Step 3
  Add egg , almond meal , pizza cheese and dried herbs to cauliflower. Season well with salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Divide mixture into 4 equal portions. Place 2 portions onto each prepared tray. Flatten each portion to form a 15cm circle, making the sides a little thicker to form the crust.
• Step 4
  Bake bases for 15 minutes or until golden.
• Step 5
  Meanwhile, heat oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook pumpkin , turning, for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden and tender.
• Step 6
  Spread bases with passata . Sprinkle with extra pizza cheese . Top with pumpkin, prosciutto and ricotta . Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until cheese is melted. Top with basil . Serve immediately.
