Crust Ingredients
Method
Crust Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the Cauliflower
Remove the leaves from the cauliflower and cut it into florets. Using a food processor, pulse the florets until they resemble rice or fine crumbs. You should have about 2-3 cups of cauliflower rice.
Cook the Cauliflower
Transfer the cauliflower rice to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high for 4-5 minutes until softened. Let it cool for a few minutes.
Squeeze Out Excess Moisture
After the cauliflower has cooled, place it in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth, and wring it out to remove as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial for a crispy crust.
Mix the Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the squeezed cauliflower, shredded mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Form the Crust
Transfer the cauliflower mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Use your hands to shape it into a pizza crust, about 1/4 inch thick.
Bake the Crust
Drizzle olive oil over the crust and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and firm.
