Cauliflower Pizza Crust

Ingredients

1 medium sized cauliflower ( or 3 cups pre-made cauliflower rice)

1/2 cup mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese

1 tsp oregano

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp salt + pepper (each)

1 egg


Toppings


1/3 cup pizza sauce

1/2 cup mozzarella cheese

etc.

Directions

Preheat oven to 400F. Chop cauliflower in rough pieces and place in food processor or high powdered blender - chop on high until cauliflower is really fine small pieces - I do this in small batches. Cook chopped cauliflower in microwave in glass bowl for 8 minutes. Let cool then place in a thin dish towel and completely ring out extra moisture/water from cauliflower - this process is easier to do in small batches.


MIX: Add cauliflower to bowl with egg, oregano, garlic powder, salt & pepper, mozzarella cheese, and parmesan cheese.


SHAPE: Lay parchment paper on a pizza pan, or lightly oiled pan, and add cauliflower dough. Press tightly together and form into a circle, make sure it's on the thinner side.


Bake for 20 minutes. Remove and add sauce, cheese, and other desired toppings. Bake for an additional 10 minutes. Let cool for several minutes, slice and eat!
