Ingredients
  

Cauliflower Crust Ingredients
  • 1 head Cauliflower Chopped into florets
  • 1 large Egg Helps bind the crust
  • 1 cup Mozzarella cheese Shredded
  • 1 teaspoon Salt To taste
  • 1 teaspoon Dried oregano Optional, for flavor

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
  2. Chop the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until resembling crumbs.
  3. Microwave the cauliflower crumbs for about 5 minutes until steamy.
  4. Let it cool slightly, then use a nut milk bag or clean kitchen towel to squeeze out a maximum amount of water.
  5. In a bowl, combine the cauliflower with an egg, mozzarella cheese, salt, and oregano if using. Mix well.
  6. Pat the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, forming a thin crust with slightly raised edges.
Baking
  1. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
  2. Top the crust with your preferred sauce, cheese, and additional toppings.
  3. Return to the oven and bake again until the toppings are melted and bubbly.

Notes

Use parchment paper to prevent sticking. For crispier edges, flip the crust before adding toppings during the second bake.
