Ingredients
  

Crust Ingredients
  • 1 head head of cauliflower chopped into florets
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano optional

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to a high temperature for baking.
  2. Chop the cauliflower into florets and process it in a food processor until it resembles crumbs.
  3. Microwave the processed cauliflower for about 5 minutes until steamy.
  4. Let the cauliflower cool slightly, then use a nut milk bag or a clean kitchen towel to wring out all the moisture.
  5. In a bowl, combine the drained cauliflower, egg, mozzarella cheese, salt, and oregano. Mix well.
  6. Spread the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, forming a thin crust and pinching the edges slightly.
  7. Bake the crust in the oven until it’s golden brown.
Topping and Final Baking
  1. Add sauce, cheese, and desired toppings to the baked crust.
  2. Bake again until toppings are melted and golden.

Notes

To avoid a soggy crust, ensure to remove as much water as possible from the cauliflower. Pre-riced cauliflower can be used for convenience. It's best to use parchment paper to prevent sticking.
