5 steps
Prep:20minCook:25min
Protein-packed pizza: cauliflower crust + tomato sauce + shredded chicken + spinach + chickpeas + avocado
Veggie pizza: cauliflower crust + tomato sauce + broccoli + zucchini + red onion + mushrooms + spinach + almond-based mozzarella + basil
1 medium head cauliflower, grated (about 3 cups)
1 large egg, whisked
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or dairy-free alternative)
1 tsp dried oregano
1½ tsp garlic powder
Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
Step #1: Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step #2: Using a food processor, grate the cauliflower into a rice-like texture.
Step #3: Next, steam the cauliflower rice over the stove or in a microwave-safe bowl for about 5-6 minutes. Once steamed, set aside to cool.
Step #4: Pour the cauliflower onto a clean kitchen towel and wring out the excess moisture. Note: this step is essential to achieve a crispy crust!
Step #5: Once the liquid is drained, combine the cauliflower, beaten egg, mozzarella (or dairy-free cheese), oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Mix well until a dough forms.
Step #6: Spread the cauliflower dough onto the prepared baking sheet and shape it into a pizza crust.
Step #7: Bake the crust for 12-15 minutes or until it turns golden brown and starts to crisp up around the edges.
Step #8: Remove the crust from the oven, add your preferred sauce and toppings, then return it to the oven for an additional 8-10 minutes or until the toppings are cooked and the cheese is melted.
