WHEN I READ ABOUT THIS RECIPE, I COULDN'T WAIT TO TRY IT. I THOUGHT, REALLLLYYYY???? I COULDN'T IMAGINE TRANSFORMING CAULIFLOWER INTO A PIZZA CRUST OF SOME SORT. WELL, IT WORKED! IT WAS DELISH! HUBBY COULDN'T EVEN GUESS IT WAS CAULIFLOWER! THE TRANSFORMATION WAS THAAAAAT GOOD. I THINK THIS RECIPE BEGAN IN THE WORLD OF "LOW CARBING" BUT IT'S JUST PERFECT FOR THE GLUTEN FREE WORLD AS WELL. HOPE YOU GIVE IT A TRY-LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK IF YOU DO!
CAULIFLOWER PIZZA CRUST
1 cup cooked, riced cauliflower (USE A RICER OR I HAVE READ SOME PEOPLE USE A FOOD PROCESSOR! I WILL TRY THAT METHOD NEXT TIME)
1 egg
1 cup mozzarellA cheese (I USED SHREDDED MOZZARELLA/PROVOLONE COMBO)
PIZZA SAUCE OF YOUR CHOICE
MORE SHREDDED CHEESE PLUS ANY TOPPINGS YOU LIKE

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
SECRET IS IN GREASING YOUR PARCHMENT VERY WELL. PAM SPRAY DID NOT WORK WELL ENOUGH FOR THIS. GENEROUSLY OIL A ROUND PIECE OF PARCHMENT WITH OIL AND WIPE OFF EXCESS SO IT DOESN'T LEAK OFF SIDES IN OVEN.
In a medium bowl, combine cauliflower, egg and mozzarella. Press evenly on the parchment.
I baked mine directly on a pizza stone at 450 degrees for 12-15 minutes (15-20 minutes if you double the recipe).
Remove the pan from the oven. To the crust, add sauce, then cheese and toppings.
Place under a broiler at high heat just until cheese is melted!

I must try this! I LOVE pizza
Hi. This sounds great! I have never used a ricer and I don't have one. Could I just mash the cauliflower?
I HAVE NEVER DONE IT BUT I AM SURE MASHING FINELY WOULD WORK!!!
Yes a masher works fine. We love this recipe. Our friends dont even know it is cauliflofwer.
