Yup, it’s true. Cauliflower acts as a crust for our favorite sauce-and-cheese combo. I didn’t believe it until I tried it either.

Start Cooking
Prepare Pizza
-
Preheat oven to 475 degrees Fahrenheit (240 degrees Celsius).
-
Place the cauliflower into a food processor and pulse until it is the consistency of fine couscous.
-
Place the cauliflower onto a tea towel and close towel tightly. Squeeze it on both ends over a sink and let excess water drip away.
-
Transfer to a bowl and mix with egg, cheese, and seasoning.
-
Line a baking sheet with Gefen Parchment Paper.
-
Pour the contents of the bowl onto the sheet and spread it with your fingers to create an even crust.
-
Bake until it begins to darken around the edges, about 15 minutes.
-
Spread with a thin layer of homemade or store-bought sauce.
-
Sprinkle with your favorite pizza cheese and add a pinch of salt.
-
Place back in the oven at the same temperature for about five minutes until cheese is melted.
Check with your rabbi about checking cauliflower.

Cauliflower pizza
Can I use frozen cauliflower cooked and smashed, instead of fresh? If so, how much?Replies:I think it would be too mushy, although i never tried it . Fresh gives it more body for a “crust” BruceFresh is better, but if you are doing frozen make sure to get every last drop of liquid out. It says five cups worth.
