One of my absolute favorite foods in the entire WORLD, is PIZZA! I love pizza, but of course all that bread is not good. Now that I’m keto, I can’t have all that bread. I’ve tried different keto-friendly pizzas and tried a few recipes but they all did not fulfill my craving of delicious pizza. So I continued my search for delicious keto pizza. What I came across didn’t sound appealing to me. It was cauliflower pizza crust. I thought, there is no way this will be good. But, I gave it a shot and WOW! I was wrong. It was delicious! Now, it’s not that greasy thick crust pizza will all love, but it is definitely a must try. Anyways, here’s the recipe and I hope you enjoy.
Prep Time: 5 Minutes
Cook Time: 1 Hour
Total Time: 1 Hour 5 Minutes
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- Two 12 ounce bags of frozen riced cauliflower thawed 3 cups packed
- ¼ cup fine almond flour
- ¼ cup flax seed meal
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425F. Thaw the frozen cauliflower completely and then using a kitchen towel wring out all the water. Squeeze as hard a possible, the more water you squeeze out, the crispier the crust will be.
- Spread out the cauliflower on sheet pan lined with parchment paper and bake for 12 minutes, mix well, and bake another 13 minutes.
- Take out the cauliflower and let it cool down for about 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk one egg, add the cooked riced cauliflower along with remaining ingredients. Mix well.
- Place the mixture on sheet tray lined with parchment paper, place another piece of parchment paper on top. Use a rolling pin or your hands to spread out the crust to ¼ inch thickness, about 10 inches in diameter. Peel off the top parchment paper, and use a bench scraper or knife to push the edges of the dough in to form a crust wall.
- Bake the crust at 425F for about 20-25 minutes or until it looks deeply golden brown. Remove from oven and top with sauce, cheese, and your favorite toppings. Make sure not to pile on too many toppings or the crust won’t support the weight. Bake for another 7-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Enjoy!
