INGREDIENTS
1 cup riced cauliflower (107g)
1/4 cup almond flour (28g)
2 large egg whites (66g)
1/3 cup tomato sauce (82g)
2/3 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese (75g)
6 fresh basil leaves
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet or pizza stone with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the riced cauliflower, almond flour, and egg whites. Season lightly with salt, pepper, and a pinch of garlic powder if desired. Mix until a sticky dough forms.
Transfer the cauliflower mixture onto the prepared surface and press it out evenly into a thin, circular crust. Make sure the edges are slightly thicker for a traditional crust feel.
Bake the crust for 12-15 minutes, or until it begins to turn lightly golden and firm up.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the tomato sauce evenly across the surface.
Sprinkle the shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until the cheese has melted and is slightly bubbly.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves as soon as the pizza comes out of the oven. Slice and serve immediately.
