Simply the Best Cauliflower Pizza Crust Recipe

Prepare the Cauliflower: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper, lightly spraying it with cooking spray. Cut the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a blender or food processor until it resembles fine grains.

Cook and Squeeze: Transfer the cauliflower to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 4 minutes. Let it cool slightly, then place the cauliflower in a cheesecloth or clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Removing excess moisture will help create a crispy crust.

Form the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower, egg, Parmesan, mozzarella, garlic salt, basil, and oregano. Mix well, then use your hands to form the mixture into a ball.

Shape and Bake the Crust: Place the dough ball on the prepared baking sheet and press or roll it into a thin crust, about 0.2 inches thick. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Optionally, flip the crust halfway through baking for an even texture.

Add Toppings and Finish Baking: Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over the baked crust and add your favorite toppings and extra cheese. Return to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 5-7 minutes.

Serve: Allow the pizza to cool slightly, then slice and enjoy!
