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.
