INGREDIENTS
1 cup riced cauliflower (107g)
2 large eggs (100g)
1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella (112g)
1/2 cup tomato sauce (122g)
1 tsp olive oil (4.5g)
4 tbsp fresh basil (8g)
1 tsp garlic powder (2.8g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, combine the riced cauliflower, garlic powder, and egg. Mix well until you form a consistent mixture. Let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the cauliflower to release moisture.
Transfer the cauliflower mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Using your hands or a spatula, press it firmly into a thin, even round forming the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15 minutes until it starts to set and lightly brown.
Remove the crust from the oven. Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the crust and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and drizzle the olive oil over the hot pizza. Garnish generously with fresh basil.
Allow the pizza to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
