Cauliflower Pizza Crust Recipes

Steps:

• Place cauliflower pieces through the feeding tube of the food processor using the grating blade; pulse until all the cauliflower is shredded.
• 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.
• Stir Italian cheese blend, parsley, egg, garlic, salt, and pepper into cauliflower until evenly incorporated. Pour mixture onto the prepared baking sheet; press and shape into a pizza crust.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Puree cauliflower in a food processor until finely ground.
• Cook ground cauliflower, water, and salt together in a skillet over medium-high heat until fragrant and most of the water evaporates, 5 to 6 minutes. Cool completely.
• Transfer cauliflower to the center of a clean dish towel. Wrap and squeeze tightly to remove all excess moisture. You should have about 1 1/2 cups cauliflower pulp.
• Stir cauliflower, goat cheese, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, egg, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl to form a soft dough. Gather dough into a ball and place in the center of the prepared baking sheet. Press dough into circle about 1/4-inch thick.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and set, about 40 minutes. Cool and turn crust over before topping.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Break the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until fine. Steam in a steamer basket and drain well. (I like to put it on a towel to get all the moisture out.) Let cool.
• In a bowl, combine the cauliflower with the mozzarella, Parmesan, oregano, salt, garlic powder and eggs. Transfer to the center of the baking sheet and spread into a circle, resembling a pizza crust. Bake for 20 minutes.
• Add desired toppings and bake an additional 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Remove the leaves from the cauliflower and trim the stalk end, then cut into chunks. Blitz half the cauliflower in a food processor until finely chopped, like rice. Transfer to a bowl and repeat with the remaining half. Tip all the cauliflower in a bowl, cover with cling film and microwave on High for 5-6 mins until softened. Tip onto a clean tea towel and leave to cool a little. Once cool enough to handle, scrunch up the tea towel and squeeze as much liquid as you can out of the cauliflower, then transfer to a clean bowl. Stir in the ground almonds, egg, oregano and plenty of seasoning. Line a baking tray with baking parchment and grease with oil. Mound the cauliflower mix into the centre of the tray, then use a spoon and your hands to spread out into a 30cm round. Make it a little thicker at the edges to create a 'crust'. Bake for 15-18 mins until golden brown and starting to crisp a little at the edges.
• Meanwhile, heat a griddle pan, brush each aubergine slice on both sides with a little of the oil, season and cook for 5-6 mins, turning once, until softened and charred - you'll need to do this in batches. Transfer to a plate. Brush the onions with oil, season and griddle for 5-8 mins until softened and charred. To make the tomato sauce, whizz the canned tomatoes, tomato purée, garlic and some seasoning in a blender until smooth. Transfer to a small saucepan, bring to a simmer and cook gently for 8-10 mins until thick (you don't want any watery tomato soaking into the cauliflower base). Tear half the basil leaves and stir through the sauce.
• Once the cauliflower base is cooked, set aside to cool a little. Turn the oven up to 240C/220C fan/gas 8. Drain the mozzarella and pat dry with kitchen paper. Spread the tomato sauce over the base, sprinkle over the Grana Padano, then arrange the aubergines, red onion and mozzarella on top. Scatter over the chilli flakes and return to the oven for 10-12 mins. Before serving, shave over a little more cheese and scatter with the remaining basil leaves.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F; spray cooking sheet with cooking spray.
• Rice the cauliflower according to the Recipe Description and place in a microwave safe bowl; microwave for 8 minutes (does not need additional water since the cauliflower itself produces enough).
• Be careful removing from microwave as the bowl will be very hot; stir in grated cheese and egg.
• Add oregano, garlic, and salt (if using) and mix well to combine.
• Form cauliflower mixture into a 12-inch round; bake until golden and lightly browned in places, about 15 minutes.
• Remove from oven and top as desired.
• Set oven to broil; place pizza on top rack just to warm toppings and/or melt cheese, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Slice into quarters and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500˚F (260˚C).
• Remove the leaves and stem of the cauliflower.
• Transfer pieces to a food processor and rice the cauliflower by pulsing it in the food processor, or by shredding it on a box grater.
• Once riced, transfer to a large bowl and microwave for 4 minutes. Let it cool down for a few minutes before handling!
• Transfer cooked cauliflower to a clean towel and wring out as much liquid as possible.
• Place wrung cauliflower in a bowl and combine with mozzarella, oregano, basil, salt, garlic powder, and an egg. Mix well.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place cauliflower mixture in the middle. Spread out the mixture and form a circle out of the cauliflower mixture, pushing along the edge to raise a "crust."
• Bake for 15 minutes, or until the crust has become golden brown in the center and on the edges.
• Top with your favorite pizza sauce and toppings, being careful not to overload the pizza.
• Bake for another 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese has fully melted.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. Working in batches, place cauliflower in food processor; process until finely ground. Transfer to a large microwave-safe bowl; repeat with remaining cauliflower. Microwave, covered, until cauliflower is tender, about 8 minutes. When cool enough to handle, squeeze dry; return to bowl., Stir in remaining ingredients until combined. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Press and shape cauliflower mixture into an 10-in. circle or 13x6-in. oval., Bake until edges are browned, 20-25 minutes. Top as desired; bake until toppings are heated through, 10-12 minutes longer.
