Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Cut the cauliflower into florets and place in a food processor. Pulse until finely grated and rice-like consistency is achieved.
Step 3
Transfer the riced cauliflower to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high for 5 minutes. Allow to cool slightly before handling.
Step 4
Place the cooked cauliflower on a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower, egg, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt. Mix until well combined.
Step 6
Spread the cauliflower mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming a circle or rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 7
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
Step 8
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the marinara sauce evenly over the top.
Step 9
Sprinkle 0.5 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then top with pepperoni slices.
Step 10
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 11
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
