Cauliflower Crust Pizza
This is a great alternative for homemade pizza if you're short on carbs, but have lots of fat to spare!
Ingredients
1 medium head cauliflower, cut into florets (about 500g)
50g / 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large egg
200g / 2 cups freshly grated mozzarella
Directions
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pulse the cauliflower florets in a food processor to a fine snowy powder (you should have about 2 1/2 cups).
Transfer the processed cauliflower to a microwave-safe bowl and cover. Microwave until soft, 4 to 6 minutes.
Transfer to a clean, dry kitchen towel and allow to cool.
When cool enough to handle, wrap the cauliflower in the towel and wring out as much moisture as possible, transferring to a second towel if necessary (this step is VERY important!)
In a large bowl, stir together the cauliflower, Parmesan, Italian seasoning, salt, egg and 1 cup of the mozzarella until well combined.
Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and press into a 10-inch round, or 3 smaller pizza's for individual sizes.
Bake until golden, 10 to 15 minutes.
Remove the crust from the oven and top with your favourite pizza toppings! We used tomato sauce, red onion and pizza mozzarella cheese.
