The Easiest Way to Make Cauliflower-Crust Pizza

by Alyssa Ramos

I don’t necessarily have the time, patience, or appropriate supplies that most recipes I found call for, so I improvised, and the results were ridiculously amazing! Here are step-by-step instructions using my promo-model Mixie.

1.Gather your ingredients:

  • 1 Cauliflower head
  • Shredded Mozzarella
  • 1 egg
  • Olive Oil
  • Pizza Sauce
  • Salt & Pepper
  • Garlic Powder
  • Basil flakes
  • Optional toppings
  • Preheat oven to 350°

 

2. Turn Cauliflower into “snow”

In most recipes I found, they used a food processor to chop the cauliflower pieces up into snow, but then they had to wring it out with a towel or cheese cloth, which seemed complicated, so I decided to just kill two birds with one stone…and use my juicer! (Yes I live in LA) So the juicer juiced all the nasty water out and the pulp it spit out was the Cauliflower snow!

It still seemed wet so I microwaved it for 4 minutes, then used paper towels to soak up the excess liquid.

If you don’t have a juicer, use a food processor or blender, then microwave the snow, then put it in a clean towel or cheese cloth, and wring the liquid out. Caution: snow is HOT when it comes out of the microwave.

 

 

       

 

3. Make that Dough

After all of the liquid is out, you’ll be left with the fluffy snow! Now, add in your egg, one handful of Mozzarella, and your spices, and mush it all together with your hands. (Please wash them first)  In a matter of seconds you’ll be able to form a dough ball, like this!

Then, spread butter on a piece of Parchment Paper on a “pizza stone” if you’re fancy and have one, if not, a tin pan works, and push the dough down and out into a circle, making sure it’s not too thin or too thick.

 

 

 

 

 

4. Bake the Cauliflower Dough FIRST

Bake the dough without the toppings first. I estimated by checking every once in a while (aka my ADD sidetracked me) but after about 20 minutes it looked golden like this!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

While you’re waiting for your dough to cook, watch this video I made while I was waiting for mine!

 

5. Add your toppings

Spread your pizza sauce, add your cheese, and any other toppings you desire, then bake for another 10 minutes or so,depending on how crispy you like your pizza.We tried 6 cheese blend and gorgonzola, and maple bacon, gorgonzola cheese, and arugula and it was amaazzinnggg. Both pizzas were devoured in under 5 minutes…even the guys loved it!

          

 

Yummmmss!
