Check Out That Crust!
Here’s a sneak peek of what your pizza crust is gonna look like. It’s crispy, flavorful, and will hold up all your favorite toppings!
Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 1 medium cauliflower head (or 4 cups riced cauliflower)
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Your favorite pizza toppings (sauce, veggies, meats, etc.)
Instructions to Get That Crust Just Right:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). You want that heat locked and loaded!
- Start by breaking down your cauliflower into florets and steaming or microwaving them until tender. Once they’re good to go, let them cool for a few minutes.
- Get your ricing game on by pulsing the steamed cauliflower in a food processor until it’s nice and fine – like rice, you feel me? If you don’t have a food processor, you can grate it with a box grater.
- Once riced, use a clean dish towel to squeeze out any excess moisture. This is key for a crispy crust!
- In a big mixing bowl, combine the riced cauliflower, egg, mozzarella, parmesan, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix it all up until it’s well combined.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Grab that cauliflower mix and form it into a pizza shape on the paper. Make it as thick or thin as you like!
- Bake it in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, until it’s golden and crispy.
- Now, the fun part! Pull that crust out and top it with your favorite sauce, cheese, and toppings. Pop it back in the oven for another 10 minutes or so, until everything is melty and delicious.
- Slice it up and dig in! Enjoy your low carb cauliflower pizza with your friends or family – they won’t even know it’s healthy!
