INGREDIENTS
200 grams Cauliflower
1 Whole Egg
2 Egg Whites
1 ounce Parmesan Cheese
1 ounce Light Mozzarella Cheese
2 tablespoons Tomato Sauce
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil
2 tablespoons Fresh Oregano
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rice the cauliflower by pulsing florets in a food processor until it reaches a rice-like consistency. Lightly microwave or steam the riced cauliflower until soft, then drain thoroughly to remove excess moisture.
In a mixing bowl, combine the riced cauliflower, whole egg, egg whites, grated Parmesan, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until the ingredients form a cohesive batter.
Press the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping it into your desired pizza crust thickness.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until it starts to firm up and turn a light golden color.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the tomato sauce evenly over the top.
Sprinkle the light mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then return the pizza to the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes until the cheese is melted and slightly bubbly.
Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and drizzle the olive oil on top. Garnish with fresh basil and oregano before slicing and serving.
