Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Easy Cauliflower Pizza Crust.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a sizzling 450°F (230°C).
Step 2
While it warms up, grab a 9x13-inch sheet pan and line it with parchment paper, giving it a light drizzle of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Step 3
Set this aside for now.
Step 4
Next, take your riced cauliflower and toss it into a food processor.
Step 5
Pulse it until it resembles a fine flour.
Step 6
Once that’s done, sprinkle in a teaspoon of kosher salt and wrap the cauliflower in a clean kitchen towel.
Step 7
Give it a good squeeze to remove as much moisture as you can—this step is key for a crispy crust! Now, transfer the drained cauliflower into a large mixing bowl.
Step 8
It’s time to add some flavor! Toss in the eggs, mozzarella cheese, almond flour, fresh parsley, oregano, crushed red pepper flakes, minced garlic, and the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt.
Step 9
Mix everything together until it’s well combined and holds together nicely when you squeeze it in your hand.
Step 10
With your mixture ready, press it evenly into the prepared pan, forming a crust.
Step 11
Use a rubber spatula to gently divide the crust in half horizontally, leaving a small 1/4-inch space between the two sections.
Step 12
Pop the pan into your preheated oven and bake for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until the edges turn a lovely golden brown and the crust feels firm to the touch.
Step 13
Once the crust is baked to perfection, carefully lift it using the parchment paper and flip it over onto the pan, discarding the parchment.
Step 14
Return it to the oven for another 5 minutes, allowing the bottom to get lightly browned.
Step 15
When it’s done, take it out and let it cool slightly before using it as a base for your favorite toppings.
Step 16
Enjoy the deliciousness of your homemade cauliflower crust!.
