This cauliflower pizza crust recipe by Food Wishes on YouTube is a perfect alternative for those that have a gluten allergy. Plus, it’s a low-carb option if you want to be able to eat more pizza without the extra bread calories. I love cauliflower crust personally, and it’s a guilt-free way to have pizza if you’re on a strict diet. However, I do love normal pizza, but it’s a great choice to have if you don’t want to feel a little hefty after eating 3 slices.
Ingredients:
- 1 head cauliflower (about 3 packed cups ground)
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 ounce finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (about a 1-1/2 inch square grated)
- 2 ounces fresh goat cheese
- cayenne to taste
- 1 large egg
Directions:
First, prep the cauliflower by cutting out the core and breaking off the cauliflower florets. Throw them into the food processor, and process until they are finely ground. Dump the grounded cauliflower into a saute pan and add a splash of water. Turn the heat on medium-high heat and cook for about 5-6 minutes. Cook the cauliflower then squeeze as much liquid as much as possible. Continue to watch Food Wishes on YouTube for full instructions and details.

Next, line the baking sheet with parchment paper and roll up the cauliflower into a ball to place in the center of the sheet. Then, [ress it out and place plastic wrap over the “dough” to help flatten it down to an even round shape. Once it is shaped, bake in a preheated oven at 400F for 40 minutes. Build your pizza.
Overall, this is a great way to make a healthy pizza crust at home, and it would be fun to make it with fresh ingredients instead of buying frozen ones. I can’t wait to give this pizza crust a try.
