You Wont Believe Its Cauliflower Pizza Crust Recipes

THE BEST CAULIFLOWER PIZZA CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat; set aside. To make the cauliflower crust, add cauliflower to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until finely ground, yielding about 2-3 cups.* Transfer to a microwave-safe bowl. Cover loosely and place into microwave for 4-5 minutes, or until softened; let cool. Using a clean dish towel or cheese cloth, drain cauliflower completely, removing as much water as possible. Transfer cauliflower to a large bowl. Stir in eggs, mozzarella, Parmesan and Italian seasoning; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Spread cauliflower mixture into a 15- by 10-inch rectangle onto the prepared baking sheet. Spray lightly with nonstick spray and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden. Top with pizza sauce, cheeses and pepperoni minis. Place into oven and bake until the cheese has melted, about 3-5 minutes. Serve immediately, sprinkled with basil and red pepper flakes, if desired.

YOU WON'T BELIEVE IT'S CAULIFLOWER PIZZA CRUST

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees Farenheit.
• 2. Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick spray.
• 3. In a medium bowl, combine cauliflower, egg and mozzarella. Press evenly on the pan. Sprinkle evenly with fennel, oregano and parsley.
• 4. Bake at 450 degrees for 12-15 minutes (15-20 minutes if you double the recipe).
• 5. Remove the pan from the oven. To the crust, add sauce, then toppings and cheese. Place under a broiler (grill for the Europeans) at high heat just until cheese is melted.
• 6. Notes: *I use frozen cauliflower prepared according to package directions. After cooked and slightly cooled, I shred cauliflower with a cheese grater, and then measure for the recipe. (Don't pack down the cup with cauliflower. Just fill it with a spoon or the cup itself.) ** The pizza sauce I use is Great Value Pizza sauce from Wal-Mart. At only 3 net carbs per quarter cup, you get a lot of punch for little carbohydrate pow. *** You can try re-baking the pizza at 450 once you add toppings if desired, but the crust is not quite as crusty. There is a minimal difference, so see what works best for you.

• Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add cauliflower, cover, and steam until tender, about 15 minutes. Transfer cauliflower to a large bowl and refrigerate, stirring occasionally, until cooled, about 15 minutes.
• Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicon mat.

CAULIFLOWER CRUST PIZZA.....YOU WON'T BELIEVE IT!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Break the cauliflower into floret's and use a food processor or cheese grater to shred the cauliflower into little bits. It takes about 10-12 pulses in the food processor to get the right consistency, being careful not to over process and make a puree.
• Transfer to a large bowl and cook in the microwave, uncovered, for 8 minutes on high heat. It is not necessary to add water, the cauliflower will steam on it's own.
• Let the cauliflower cool slightly and mix in all remaining crust ingredients.
• Spray a pizza pan or sheet pan with non-stick spray liberally and spread out the mixture. Go for a pretty thin pizza, this will ensure crispiness. Spray the top lightly with cooking spray.
• Place the crust in the oven and cook for 20 minutes. It will get crispy and dark in many areas. Important tip: before you top the crust with toppings, be sure to take a large spatula and very gently loosen the bottom of the crust from the pan. This will prevent it from sticking as you cook it further.
• Top the crust with your favorite toppings and bake until cheese is melted, about 10-15 minutes, and turn on the broiler for 2-3 minutes to crisp the top to your liking.
• Tips for the perfect low carb pizza crust:.
• Spray a non-stick pan liberally with non-stick spray.
• Be sure to cook the crust on a high temperature, 400 degrees for 25 minutes or until crispy on the bottom and firm on the top. Every oven varies but the key is to have a crispy bottom so that the pizza stays together and slices up nicely.
• After the crust is pre-baked, loosen it gently with a spatula so that it does not stick to the pan as you continue to cook the pizza with toppings.
• If you go a little lighter on the sauce and toppings, the pizza will hold together better. The Margherita Pizza toppings of buffalo mozzarella and vine ripe tomato slices are a perfect choice.
• Follow these tips and you will have perfect low carb pizza that is so delicious that you won't feel like you are missing a thing.
• I hope you let me know how it works out for you and what your favorite toppings are!
