This is a variation of my flax meal focaccia bread, which is a dense "food for you" type of bread. It makes a pizza that is about 12 inches in diameter, although you can spread it thinner and larger if you want.

1 and 1/2 C flax seed meal, I used golden
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon oregano or (basil worked well)
Sweetener to equal about 1 T. of sugar (1 and 1/2 packet of splenda)
3 Tablespoons of oil
3 eggs
`1/2 C water

PREPARATION:

Preheat oven to 425 F.

Mix dry ingredients together.
Add wet ingredients, and mix very well.
Let sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.
Spread on pan (I put it on a silicon mat or greased parchment paper). I used a deep dish stone with pam
Bake for 15-18 minutes until cooked through, Browned on top then
Cover with pizza sauce, more seasonings to taste
2 cups finely shredded italian cheese, (used 5 kind)
add pepperoni or other precooked meat toppings and veggies(I used onions, peppers, sun dried tomatoes)
cook at least 10 more minutes until they are done.
