Description

Cauliflower pizza crust has become a popular alternative to traditional pizza crust. It is a low-carb and gluten-free option that is also packed with nutrients. This recipe uses riced cauliflower to create a delicious and healthy pizza crust that is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

Prep Time

Preparation time for this recipe is approximately 20 minutes.

Cook Time

Cooking time is approximately 25 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 1 head of cauliflower, riced (approximately 4 cups)
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Equipment

  • Food processor or cheese grater
  • Mixing bowl
  • Parchment paper
  • Baking sheet

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Cut the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until it is finely chopped and resembles rice. Alternatively, you can use a cheese grater to grate the cauliflower.
  3. Place the riced cauliflower in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 5-6 minutes or until it is tender. Allow the cauliflower to cool for a few minutes.
  4. Place the cooled cauliflower in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step is important to ensure that the crust is crispy.
  5. In a mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower, egg, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, oregano, and salt. Mix well.
  6. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the cauliflower mixture evenly to form a crust that is about 1/4 inch thick. Make sure the edges are slightly thicker to prevent the toppings from sliding off.
  7. Bake the crust for 20-25 minutes or until it is golden brown and crispy.
  8. Remove the crust from the oven and add your favorite toppings. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

If you don't have a food processor or cheese grater, you can also use a blender to pulse the cauliflower into rice-sized pieces. Be careful not to over-blend, as it can turn into cauliflower puree.
