Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium head of cauliflower (~4 cups riced)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Equipment

  • Food processor or grater
  • Microwave-safe bowl
  • Clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth
  • Mixing bowl
  • Baking sheet with parchment

Method
 

  1. Add cauliflower florets to the food processor; pulse until finely riced.
  2. Microwave frozen riced cauliflower for 5 minutes to steam, then let cool slightly.
  3. Squeeze cauliflower as dry as possible in a clean towel to achieve a crisp crust.
  4. In a bowl, combine cauliflower, egg, Mozzarella/ Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and salt.
  5. Spread the mixture on parchment paper into a 1/4-inch-thick circle for the crust.
  6. Place in the oven and preheat to 400°F (200°C) for 20–25 minutes or until light brown
  7. Top the crust with sauce, cheese, and your favorite toppings, then bake another 10 minutes or until melted and bubbly.

Notes

You want to squeeze out as much water as possible, because the water is what keeps a crust from getting crisp — you’re squeezing hard so it gets good and firm.
(You don’t have to line the pan, but having parchment paper will allow you to just lift it right out.)
For a little more flavor, combine ½ tsp garlic powder into the mix.
This cauliflower crust pizza is airy, crispy, tasty and made for keto vegetarians.
