Doesn't the almond flour and the coconut flour taste ... well to almondy and coconutty?
Do you mean generally or in the pizza? I find almonds don't taste too almondy in cakes, bread etc. On the pizza, there are so many jalapeños, you can't even taste your own tongue :p

I have loads of coconut flour but have not managed to make anything successful with it yet.

The almond flour is just ground almonds. Lovely for making low carb muffins. And low carb marzipan sweeties if you like that sort of thing.

Ok, so today I had a miserably failed attempt at low carb Gouda cheese Doritos.

I put the triangles on my silicon sheet, popped them into microwave and watched them melt into a single bubbly blob. I think it took about 2.5 mins.

But, when cool, I have to admit the blob was gorgeous. Crispy, hard and rather like a cheesy poppadom.

So now I'm wondering what my blob would be with scattered bacon crumbs, or onion shreds...

I made Doritos in a regular oven. Took about 6 minutes.

(I just looked on here because every time I glance at the telly, Germany scores :eek:)

Diagnosed prediabetic Easter 2014. Just left to get on with it, no guidance or help from GP. Every day I'm learning something new.

Aha! That was obviously my mistake! Got confused with my Brie puffs...

Hmm... Obviously have to try again. Mind you, my Gouda poppadom was brill.
