A few friends have been challenging me to come up with a solid, delicious pizza crust recipe that isn't too high in fat, doesn't cause cravings, and has a pretty darned good consistency.
I was hoping on the oopsie rolls as a 'batter/crust' of sorts, but saw that the results were extremely mixed.
Then it hit me...
cauliflower. Yes. Cauliflower! I made this this afternoon... it is amazing!
Don't knock it until you try this! My husband is eating it faster than I can make it!
Recipe can be doubled.
You Won't Believe it's Cauliflower Pizza Crust
1 cup cooked, riced cauliflower**
1 egg
1 cup mozzarella cheese
1/2tsp fennel
1 tsp oregano
2 tsp parsley
pizza or alfredo sauce
toppings
mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 450 degrees farenheit.
Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick spray.
In a medium bowl, combine cauliflower, egg and mozzarella. Press evenly on the pan. Sprinkle evenly with fennel, oregano and parsley.
Bake at 450 degrees for 12-15 minutes (15-20 minutes if you double the recipe).
Remove the pan from the oven. To the crust, add sauce, then toppings and cheese.
Place under a broiler at high heat just until cheese is melted.
**I use frozen cauliflower prepared according to package directions. After cooked and slightly cooled, I shred cauliflower with a cheese grater, and then measure for the recipe. (Don't pack down the cup with cauliflower. Just fill it with a spoon or the cup itself.)
