Ingredients
  

For the Zucchini Crust:

2 cups grated zucchini (about 2 medium zucchinis)

1 cup almond flour (or any flour of your choice)

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 large egg

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp dried oregano

Salt and pepper to taste

For the Toppings:

1/2 cup marinara sauce (or pizza sauce)

1 cup baby spinach, roughly chopped

4 large eggs

1/2 cup diced bell peppers (red, yellow, or green)

1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (or goat cheese)

Optional: red pepper flakes, fresh basil for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Prepare the Zucchini: Grate the zucchinis using a box grater or food processor. Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial for a crispy crust.

      Mix the Crust Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the dried zucchini, almond flour, shredded mozzarella, egg, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

        Form the Crust: Transfer the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Using your hands, spread and flatten the mixture into a circular pizza-shaped crust, about 1/4 inch thick.

          Bake the Crust: Place the crust in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown and firm.

            Add the Toppings: Remove the crust from the oven and spread the marinara sauce evenly on top. Layer the chopped spinach, diced bell peppers, and crumbled feta cheese. Create small wells in the toppings and crack an egg into each well (you can fit up to 4 eggs depending on the size).

              Bake Again: Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the eggs are set to your desired doneness.

                Garnish and Serve: Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool slightly, and garnish with red pepper flakes or fresh basil if desired. Slice and serve warm.
