Ingredients

• 1 large head Cauliflower florets
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 teaspoon Oregano, dried
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Tomato sauce
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded (for topping)
• 1 cup Toppings of choice (e.g., pepperoni, bell peppers, onions, mushrooms)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a food processor, pulse the cauliflower florets until they become fine rice-sized pieces.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Allow the cauliflower to cool slightly, then transfer to a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial to ensure a firm crust.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower, eggs, 1 cup mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until a dough forms.

Step 6

Spread the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping it into a round pizza crust approximately 1/4-inch thick.

Step 7

Bake the cauliflower crust for 20 minutes or until it turns a golden brown and becomes firm to the touch.

Step 8

Remove the crust from the oven and let it cool slightly. Spread the tomato sauce over the crust, then sprinkle with 1 cup of mozzarella cheese.

Step 9

Add your desired toppings, such as pepperoni, bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms.

Step 10

Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 11

Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
