Crust Ingredients

Method

Crust Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Cauliflower

    Steam the cauliflower florets until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly.

  3. 3

    Make Cauliflower Rice

    Once cooled, chop the cauliflower into small pieces and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice.

  4. 4

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine cauliflower rice, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, eggs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and oregano. Mix well until fully combined.

  5. 5

    Form the Crust

    Spread the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet in a circular shape, about 12 inches in diameter, pressing it down evenly.

  6. 6

    Bake the Crust

    Brush the top of the crust with olive oil and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.

  7. 7

    Cool and Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before adding your favorite toppings and baking again, or serve as is.
