I probably wouldn’t believe it either. But I promise, I’m not lying – this pizza has no flour. No carbs. No gluten. No guilt. And it tastes amazing!
Trust me, I was a little skeptical when I first saw this idea on Pinterest. But then I tried it and I fell in love.
Cauliflower Pizza Crust
Makes 8 slices. Gluten free. Adapted from Eating Bird Food.
Ingredients
1/2 head cauliflower
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried basil
1 egg
1 C shredded cheese (mozzarella, parmesan, etc)
salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat, or use a pizza stone if you have one.
2. Put cauliflower florets into a food processor and pulse until crumbly. You should have about 2 cups.
3. Saute over medium heat about 5 minutes.
4. In a large bowl combine cauliflower with all remaining ingredients. Mixture should be crumbly.
5. Spread crust on pan about 1/4 inch thick, pressing down with your fingers so it sticks together.
6. Bake 25-30 minutes until edges are crispy.
7. Remove from oven, top with sauce and any toppings, and broil another 5 minutes. Serve hot.
need to learn your secrets to the perf cauliflower crust – I tried it and it didn’t come out as good as yours looks!!!!
It took me a couple tries to get it right… I think it would be even better if I had a pizza stone. Just another kitchen thing I want to buy… :)
