Cauliflower Pizza Crust!


I have been trying out some new recipes lately, the first one I decided to post was Cauliflower Pizza since it turned out so good!

I found a couple recipes on Pinterest that I mixed together to make this recipe. 

These are the ingredients you will need to make the crust:
  • 1 head of cauliflower 
  • 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese
  • 4 tablespoons of parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic flakes
  • 1 large egg
You can use any toppings you like on the cauliflower crust. 


To start I pre-heated my oven to 450 F.

I used my food processor to 'rice' the cauliflower, you can also use a cheese grater if you don't have a food processor. If you are using the processor don't blend the cauliflower too much, the cauliflower should be the consistency of rice. 

Once the cauliflower is riced you microwave it for 4 min. Then let cool completely, once cool wring all of the water out of the cauliflower using a clean dishcloth (this step is important if you want your crust not to fall apart).

In a bowl combine your cauliflower, cheese and spices mix these together before adding the egg. Once the egg is added I used my hands to mix and form the dough into a ball. 

Spread your dough out on oiled parchment paper. You want the dough to be formed together tightly, be careful not to spread it out too much. 

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until it starts to look golden brown. 
Now add your pizza sauce and any other toppings you like. Put your pizza back in the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until your cheese is melted on top.

Let the pizza cool slightly for 3 or 4 minutes and enjoy!
