Oftentimes dairy-free pizza feels incomplete—naked, almost. But when cheese isn’t part of your diet, what other option do you have? While DAIRY-FREE CHEESE SPREAD made from cashews is a fantastic creamy sub for cheese on pizza, the gooeyness factor is missing. Enter this ahhh-mazing French Onion Pizza! The soft and creamy onions have fantastic flavor and authentic cheesy texture. Enjoy it on your next pizza night!
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3 garlic cloves, chopped
sea salt and black pepper to taste
½ cup coconut cream
4 sprigs fresh thyme
1½ cups blanched almond flour
3 tablespoons coconut flour
½ cup arrowroot starch
¼ teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
¼ cup water
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the sliced onions and cook for about 15 minutes, until golden. Stir in the garlic and cook for another 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the coconut cream. Cook for another 5 minutes, then remove from the heat.
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, arrowroot starch, and sea salt. Mix well.
In a medium bowl, combine the egg, olive oil, vinegar, and water. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix until a dough forms; shape into a ball. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for 15 minutes in the fridge.
Place the dough on a piece of parchment paper. Cover it with another piece of parchment paper and use a rolling pin to flatten the dough into a pizza crust shape, about 1/2 inch thick. Pinch the edges of the dough to form a crust. Brush the crust with olive oil and transfer it and the parchment paper to a large baking sheet. Bake for 8 minutes, until golden.
Spread the creamy onion mixture over the crust, then sprinkle with the fresh thyme. Bake for another 8 minutes. Slice and enjoy!
