Cauliflower Pizza Crust = Success!

This was great for many reasons! It tastes delicious, it’s not TOO intensive to make, and I made people who hate cauliflower give it a chance! Plus Cauliflower is a Super food, so you feel amazing when you eat it!

Thanks again to Hofstede’s Country Barn for the ingredients! They have EVERYTHING you need to make this!

What You Need:

One head of Cauliflower
1 large egg
1/2 cup shredded parmesan or mozarella cheese
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
Salt & Pepper to taste
Plus whatever toppings you like on your pizza!

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and line round pizza baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Rinse cauliflower, remove the outer leaves and separate into florets with a paring knife. Place cauliflower florets in a food processor and process until “rice” texture. Some coarse chunks are fine. If you don’t have a processor, you can grate it with a cheese grater but it takes a LOT longer.
  3. Place on a prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 mins.1
  4. Remove cooked cauliflower from the oven and transfer to a bowl lined with a double/triple layered cheese cloth.
  5. Then squeeze the liquid out of the ball, cauliflower inside the cheesecloth, as hard as you can. Be patient and do this a few times until barely any liquid comes out. This is VERY important, if you have too much liquid left in it, it will become soggy, and less pizza crust like!
  6. Increase oven T to 450 degrees F. Transfer cauliflower to a mixing bowl along with egg, cheese, herb seasoning, salt, black pepper and mix to combine. Transfer cauliflower mixture onto the same baking sheet you used to roast the florets (I used the same parchment paper but you can swap it for a new one if it gets too soggy), and flatten with your hands until thin pizza crust forms.
  7. Bake for 15 – 20 minutes and remove from the oven.2
  8. Transfer cauliflower mixture onto the same baking sheet you used to roast the florets (I used the same parchment paper but you can swap it for a new one if it gets too soggy), and flatten with your hands until thin pizza crust forms.
