Pizza was the hardest thing to give up on keto until I perfected this crust. The trick is squeezing out every drop of moisture from the cauliflower. Now pizza night is back on the menu.

Ingredients

  • 1 large head cauliflower
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup mozzarella, shredded (divided)
  • ½ tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ cup pizza sauce (no sugar added)
  • Pepperoni, mushrooms, bell peppers
  • Fresh basil

Instructions

  1. Make crust: Rice cauliflower in food processor. Microwave 5 min, let cool. Squeeze in towel until completely dry. Mix with egg, ½ cup cheese, Italian seasoning.
  2. Bake crust: Press onto parchment-lined pan into thin circle. Bake at 450°F for 15-20 minutes until golden.
  3. Add toppings: Spread sauce, add remaining cheese and toppings. Bake 10 more minutes until cheese melts.

Tips

  • The drier the cauliflower, the crispier the crust.
  • Pre-bake the crust longer for extra crispiness.
