Cauliflower Crust Pizza Margherita Recipes

Steps:

• Use pulsing action of food processor to process half the cauliflower until it resembles the texture of rice; spoon into large microwaveable bowl. Repeat with remaining cauliflower. Cover with waxed paper.
• Microwave on HIGH 4 to 6 min. or until cauliflower is softened; cool.
• Heat oven to 425°F. Spoon cauliflower onto clean kitchen towel; wring out as much moisture as possible. Place cauliflower in large bowl. Add flour, Parmesan, egg and 1 cup mozzarella; mix well. Press onto bottom of 12-inch pizza pan sprayed with cooking spray.
• Bake 12 to 15 min. or until golden brown.
• Spread cauliflower crust with pizza sauce; top with remaining mozzarella and tomatoes. Bake 5 to 6 min. or until mozzarella is melted.
• Top with basil.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch sheet pan with parchment paper and lightly coat with olive oil. Set aside.
• Place riced cauliflower in a food processor and chop until it's a similar consistency to flour. Toss the cauliflower pieces and 1 teaspoon kosher salt together. Wrap the cauliflower in a kitchen towel and wring out as much liquid as possible.
• Put the cauliflower in a large bowl and add eggs, mozzarella cheese, almond flour, parsley, oregano, pepper flakes, garlic, and remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Mix the ingredients until thoroughly combined. The mixture should hold together when you squeeze it in your hand.
• Evenly and firmly press cauliflower mixture into the prepared pan. Use a rubber spatula to divide the crust in half horizontally and press the dough to either side so there is a 1/4-inch of space between the 2 crusts.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crusts are brown around the edges and set, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove crusts from the oven. Lift crusts using the parchment paper and flip over directly onto the pan. Discard the parchment paper. Place crusts back in the oven and cook until the bottoms begin to brown as well, about 5 minutes more.
• Remove crusts from the oven and use as desired.

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.
