Cauliflower Pizza Crust [0001045]

Ingredients:

1 medium head of cauliflower, washed and dried
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (gluten-free)
1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded (gluten-free)
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and black pepper to taste
1 large egg
Pizza toppings of your choice (e.g., tomato sauce, cheese, vegetables, meats)

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Place a pizza stone or a baking sheet in the oven as it heats.

Cut the cauliflower into florets and pulse them in a food processor until they resemble fine crumbs. You should have about 2 cups of cauliflower crumbs.

Transfer the cauliflower crumbs to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high for 4-5 minutes, or until the cauliflower is soft.

Allow the microwaved cauliflower to cool for a few minutes, then transfer it to a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial to getting a crispy crust.

In a mixing bowl, combine the drained cauliflower, grated Parmesan cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, dried oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

Add the large egg to the cauliflower mixture and mix until a dough forms.

Place a sheet of parchment paper on a flat surface and lightly grease it with non-stick cooking spray.

Press the cauliflower dough onto the parchment paper, shaping it into a thin round crust, about 1/4-inch thick. Use your hands to smooth it out.

Carefully slide the parchment paper with the cauliflower crust onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and firm.

Remove the cauliflower crust from the oven and add your choice of pizza toppings.

Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
