Instructions
Preheat the Oven
Preheat to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Prepare the Zucchini Mixture
Place grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step ensures a crispy crust.
In a bowl, mix the squeezed zucchini with the beaten egg, mozzarella, Parmesan, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Shape the Base
Spread the mixture evenly on the baking sheet, shaping into a flat, round crust about 1/4 inch thick. Smooth with hands or a spatula.
Bake the Base
Bake for 15–20 minutes until golden brown and firm around the edges.
Add the Toppings
Spread marinara sauce evenly over the crust, then sprinkle with mozzarella and your chosen toppings.
Broil for Melty Goodness
Return to the oven and broil for 2–3 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
Cool and Serve
Let cool for a few minutes, then slice. Garnish with fresh basil or red pepper flakes if desired. Serve warm.
