Steps:

• Remove the leaves and stem of the cauliflower.

• Transfer cooked cauliflower to a clean towel and wring out as much liquid as possible.
• Place wrung cauliflower in a bowl and combine with mozzarella, oregano, basil, salt, garlic powder, and an egg. Mix well.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place cauliflower mixture in the middle. Spread out the mixture and form a circle out of the cauliflower mixture, pushing along the edge to raise a "crust."
• Bake for 15 minutes, or until the crust has become golden brown in the center and on the edges.
• Top with your favorite pizza sauce and toppings, being careful not to overload the pizza.
• Bake for another 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese has fully melted.

CAULIFLOWER PIZZA CRUST RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450˚F (240˚F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Add the cauliflower to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until it becomes the size of rice. Transfer the cauliflower to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high for 3 minutes, or until it begins to steam. Remove the cauliflower and place on a clean kitchen towel. Wrap the towel around it and squeeze out as much liquid as possible; wait for the cauliflower to cool a bit if it's too hot to handle.
• Transfer the cauliflower to a large bowl and add the oregano, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt, Parmesan, and egg. Stir to combine.
• Transfer the mixture to the baking sheet and use your hands to form it into a round disk, ½-inch (1 cm) thick and 10-inches (25 cm) in diameter. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust begins to brown.
• Top the crust with your desired toppings and bake for another 10 minutes.
• Enjoy!

CAULIFLOWER PIZZA BITES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a muffin tin with parchment paper squares.
• Grate cauliflower into a microwave-safe bowl using a fine grater. Chop up any remaining pieces that are too small to grate but too big for the crust.
• Microwave cauliflower until soft and tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Pour cauliflower into a clean dish towel cool easily handled, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Wrap the towel around the cauliflower and squeeze out as much liquid as possible; the drier the cauliflower is, the better it will hold together as a crust once mixed with the other ingredients.
• Combine cauliflower, 1 cup mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder in a large bowl.
• Scoop cauliflower crust mixture into prepared muffin tin, dividing the mixture evenly among the cups. Pat down cauliflower mixture with the back of a spoon, making it compact.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
• Spoon a small amount of pizza sauce onto each cauliflower crust. Top with remaining 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese, dividing evenly among the crusts.
• Bake until golden brown and cheese is melted, about 15 minutes. Let sit in pan for 5 minutes before moving each bite to a cooling rack. Let cool for 10 minutes. Peel parchment paper squares off the crusts and serve on a platter.
