Since we are basically on a Ketogenic diet or “Keto” diet we no longer eat sugarandcarbs. That means giving up bread, chips, pasta, and pizza, right? Well, maybe not!

I’ve found a great bread recipe, too. I love cheese chips which are super simple to make, as well and I will share that great recipe soon, too,

For pasta, we use zucchini, for mashed potatoes we use cauliflower which is super good with butter, sour cream, and cheese!

Low Carb Cauliflower Pizza Crust Recipe

Potatoes were the thing that made me fat in the first place and the reason I had to lose over 100lbs! I would eat them baked, mashed, french fried, or run over with a car – it didn’t matter – I had some form of potatoes at every meal – hashbrowns, chips, fries – you name it! SO, that was what I thought I would miss the most – but the cauliflower substitute is really good!

Then there was pizza… I mean come on in this day and age pizza is a mainstay in our diets! Enter cauliflower again! It’s so versatile! This Cauliflower Pizza Crust is the crunchy crispy crust and holds up to the pizza toppings well!

Cauliflower Pizza Crust Recipe! Low Carb!

Cook Time: 19 minutes

Total Time: 19 minutes

Ingredients

3 cups of Cauliflower - florets only (pulsed in a food processor)
1 egg or 2 egg whites (whites make it crispier)
1/4 cup Mozzarella Cheese
1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
Preferred spices to taste (I used: Pizza Seasoning, Oregano, Italian Seasoning, Garlic salt)

Instructions

Place a pizza stone/pan in the oven at 450 degrees before you begin
Pulse the Cauliflower in a food processor until it looks like snow.
Place Cauliflower in a microwave safe bowl and cover it with a dish towel or loose lid. Cook on High for 4 minutes.
Place the cooked Cauliflower in a dish towel and remove the liquid from the cauliflower by“wringing” it out (Use gloves or wait for it to cool - it will be VERY HOT,) to get as much liquid out as possible, try to dry it out like flour.
once liquid is removed mix the cauliflower and the rest of the ingredients in a bowl
Oil a piece of Parchment Paper like you would oil a pan when baking. Place your dough on the Parchment Paper and begin to make your crust, not too thick, and not too thin.
Slide the Parchment Paper with the crust on it onto your pizza stone/pan in the oven. Bake at 450 degrees for 9-12 minutes.
Remove from oven and “dress” your pizza.
Place “dressed” pizza back in the oven at 450 degrees for 5-7 minutes – enjoy!

5. Place the cooked Cauliflower mixture in a dish towel and remove the excess liquid from the cauliflower by “wringing” it out to get as much liquid out as possible, try to dry it out like flour.

6. Use gloves or wait for it to cool – it will be VERY HOT, right out of the microwave. I was able to squeeze out 1/2 cup, but it still could have used a little more liquid removed.

14. Place “dressed” pizza back in the oven at 450 degrees for 5-7 minutes or until the cauliflower crust pizza has crispy edges, golden brown, and the cheese melts – enjoy!
