Cauliflower Pizza Crust

INGREDIENTS

1. One whole head cauliflower chopped into florets and then riced in a food processor

2. 1 beaten egg

3. 1/3 cup goats cheese or freshly grated Pecorino Parmesan or shredded buffalo mozzarella cheese

4. 2 tsp dried Italian seasoning

5. Pinch of salt

INSTRUCTIONS

• Preheat the oven to 400 F

• If you are using fresh cauliflower florets, steam the cauliflower until tender

• If you are using frozen cauliflower florets, ensure it is completely thawed and drain excess liquid

• Rice the florets in a food processor (you may have to do this in batches)

• Place rice into a dishtowel or nut milk bag and squeeze out any water - REALLY squeeze. All excess moisturize needs to be extracted!! (Be careful if the cauliflower is still hot - you can let it cool first)

• Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl (Keep in mind that this will not look or feel like traditional pizza dough)

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and press the dough out on it (it will stick to the pan so make sure to use parchment paper!)

• The dough should be even and around 1/4 to 1/2" thick

• Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the crust is golden and dry

• Using the parchment paper, flip the crust over and bake again on the other side for another 10 to 15 minutes or until golden and dry.

• Add your favourite sauce, toppings and cheese, and return to the oven to bake for 5 to 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted

• Enjoy!
