Description
Cauliflower Pizza Crust is a healthy, low-carb alternative to traditional pizza dough, made with grated cauliflower, cheese, and eggs for a deliciously crisp and gluten-free base.
Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 medium head cauliflower (about 4 cups grated)
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until finely grated. You should get about 4 cups.
- Microwave the grated cauliflower for 4–5 minutes until softened. Let cool slightly, then place in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
- In a bowl, combine cauliflower, Parmesan, mozzarella, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and egg. Mix until a dough forms.
- Transfer dough to prepared baking sheet and press into a thin, even 10–12 inch round crust.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden and firm.
- Remove from oven, add your favorite pizza toppings, and bake an additional 10 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
Notes
- Be sure to squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the cauliflower for a crisp crust.
- You can substitute Parmesan with nutritional yeast for a dairy-free version.
- Crust can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- To make it vegan, use a flax egg and dairy-free cheese.
