Ingredients
- 1 large head Cauliflower florets
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper, brushing it lightly with olive oil.
Step 2
Wash and cut the cauliflower into florets. Pulse the florets in a food processor until finely ground, resembling rice grains. You should have about 4 cups of cauliflower rice.
Step 3
Transfer the cauliflower rice to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high for 5 minutes to soften. Allow it to cool slightly.
Step 4
Once cool enough to handle, place the cooked cauliflower in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out excess moisture. You want to remove as much water as possible for a crispy crust.
Step 5
In a large bowl, combine the drained cauliflower, eggs, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until a dough forms.
Step 6
Spread the cauliflower mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming a circle about ¼ inch thick and ensuring it is evenly distributed.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and firm to the touch.
Step 8
Remove the crust from the oven and add your desired gluten-free sauces and toppings.
Step 9
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 10
Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
