Step 1
Preheat the grill or oven to 450F/230C.
Step 2
Grate zucchini, using a food processor or the large side of a hand grater, then chop the grated zucchini. (I did this with a steel blade in the food processor, but you could chop with a large knife if you don’t have a food processor.)
Step 3
Place the chopped zucchini in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high for about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Then drain the cooked zucchini into a colander that’s lined with cheesecloth or a kitchen towel.
Step 5
Let zucchini drain until it’s cool enough to handle.
Step 6
While the zucchini cools, make the tomato sauce.
Step 7
First, drain the tomatoes into a colander placed in the sink.
Step 8
While the tomatoes drain, chop the garlic, heat half the olive oil in a very small frying pan, and saute garlic just until it’s fragrant.
Step 9
Add the drained tomatoes and Italian seasoning and let the sauce simmer on very low heat until it's thickened and reduced. (Just before using the sauce, stir in the rest of the olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper.)
Step 10
When zucchini is cool, squeeze out as much water as you can and place the zucchini in a bowl.
Step 11
Add the finely grated Mozzarella, Almond Flour (affiliate link), Parmesan, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and beaten egg and stir until the ingredients are combined.
Step 12
Spray a baking sheet with olive oil or nonstick spray and divide the crust mixture into two balls.
Step 13
Use your fingers to press out the crust mixture into two circles, being careful not to make the edges too thin (or they will burn).
Step 14
Preheat pizza stone for a few minutes and then bake crust on the pizza stone (on a covered grill or in the oven) just until the crust is firm and starting to brown (about 12-13 minutes.)
Step 15
You can also bake this in the oven without a pizza stone, but it will take a little longer to cook.
Step 16
Spread each small pizza with half the sauce, then top with half the basil leaves and half the fresh Mozzarella chunks.
Step 17
Put pizzas back into the oven or on the grill and cook just until the cheese is nicely melted, about 3-5 minutes more.
Step 18
Serve hot.
