Crunchy Cauliflower Pizza Base

Ever since my mum tried this one many moons ago when I was living at home, I have wanted to have a re-cook. So after some googling and mixing of recipes and decisions, I came out with an ever so tasty base. I was trying not to use flour, however I ended up putting in some Buckwheat Flour and it worked a treat.
Gluten free, happy body happy life. 

What do you need?
1 head of cauliflower
1/2 almond meal
1/2 cup buckwheat flour
1 tsp baking power 
1 egg
dried basil or herb of your choice

Put cauliflower in food processor and combine until it forms a bread crumby flour consistency. Place in microwave safe bowl and microwave for 4 minutes (or steam on the stove, better for your health)
Allow cauliflower to cool completely, then squeeze out any excess water.
drei. Add remaining ingredients and mix with hands to form a dough. 
vier. Oil well a piece of baking paper placed on a baking tray and spread dough evenly.
funf. Bake for 20-25 minutes until a little golden and crispy.
sechs. Remove from oven and add toppings of your choice and put back in oven to finish cooking.

On my pizza I had: Red pesto, cheese, roast courgette, roast butternut pumpkin, avocado, cheese, tahini, yoghurt. It was oh so tasty.
