Ingredients
- 1 Large Head of Cauliflower
- 1/3 cup Goat Cheese
- 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
- 1 Egg beaten
- Pinch of Salt
- Favorite Pizza Toppings sauce, fresh mozzarella etc.
Instructions
- Pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees and get a pot with about 1 inch of water boiling on the stove. Break down your cauliflower into small pieces to prep it for your blender/food processor.
- Add your cauliflower to your blender/food processor and process on low until a rice like consistency forms. I would do this in batches to make sure the size of the “rice” is consistent.
- Take your cauliflower “rice” and boil it (covered) in the 1 inch of water for 4-5 minutes. It might start to boil over, so watch it carefully.
- Strain the cauliflower “rice” in a wire mesh strainer and put on a dry kitchen towel. You might have to do this in batches if your mesh strainer is small like mine is!
- Once all the cauliflower is strained and on the towel, let it cool for a few minutes. Once it’s cool enough to handle, wrap it up in the towel and SQUEEZE all the moisture out. I got almost 3/4 cup of water out just by squeezing. Do this until the “rice” is dry. Do not rush this process.
- Once it’s dry, add it to a bowl and mix in the goat cheese, parm cheese, egg and salt. Mix it up (just use your hands). It won’t feel like traditional pizza dough, but it will come together.
- Once your dough has come together, press it into a pizza stone or form it onto a baking sheet. If you use a baking sheet, make sure you line it with parchment paper. Try to keep the dough about 1/3 inch thick, and make the edges a little higher so you have a “crust”.
- Bake for 40 minutes or until golden brown.
- Top with all your favorite toppings and put it back in the oven until golden and bubbly! If you use too much sauce, the crust will get soggy. If you want it to stay SUPER crispy, I’d top it with the your cheese and toppings and dip it in sauce or pour sauce on top after.
