Cauliflower Pizza Crust Recipe

A healthy, low-carb alternative to traditional pizza crust made with cauliflower, cheese, and herbs. Perfect for those following gluten-free or low-carb diets.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 medium head of cauliflower (about 4 cups, riced)
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cut the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice.
  3. Microwave the riced cauliflower in a microwave-safe bowl for 4-5 minutes. Let it cool slightly, then transfer to a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower, mozzarella, Parmesan, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and egg. Mix well until a dough forms.
  5. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and press it into a circular crust about 1/4 inch thick.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and firm.
  7. Remove from oven, add desired pizza toppings, and return to oven for 5-10 minutes until toppings are cooked and cheese is melted.
  8. Slice and serve warm.

Notes

  • Make sure to remove as much moisture as possible from the cauliflower to achieve a crispy crust.
  • Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal.
  • This crust can be made ahead and frozen for later use.
