QUICK AND EASY CAULIFLOWER CRUST PERSONAL PIZZA



Quick and Easy Cauliflower Crust Personal Pizza image

A convenient, quick, low-cost way to whip up a yummy cauliflower pizza (or flatbread) for one. Buy inexpensive frozen cauliflower when on sale and thaw as needed to make a single crust. Uses just a few ingredients I always have on hand. The seeds are carried in the health section of grocery stores, even in my small town. You could leave them out, but I recommend them for added nutrition-especially iron, fiber, and protein.

Time 50m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 15

12 ounces frozen cauliflower
1 egg
2 tablespoons shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon seed blend (such as Badia® Trilogy Health Seeds)
1 teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon dried basil
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons bruschetta sauce
1 ½ tablespoons crumbled feta cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Cover a pizza pan with parchment paper.
  • Pour frozen cauliflower into a microwave-safe bowl and heat in the microwave until just thawed, about 1 minute. Place cauliflower in the middle of a thin cloth napkin; twist and squeeze repeatedly to wring out as much moisture as possible. Transfer cauliflower to a food processor. Process until crumbled. Return to the cloth napkin and repeat twisting and squeezing. Transfer cauliflower pulp to a mixing bowl.
  • Add egg, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, seed blend, basil, garlic powder, and salt to the bowl with the pulp and stir together. Turn mixture out onto the center of the prepared pizza pan. Form into a ball, then use palms of hands to gradually press into a flat 8-inch circle. Use fingertips to create a smooth, slightly thicker outer edge.
  • Bake in the preheated oven on the center rack until top begins to turn golden brown, 16 to 17 minutes. Remove from oven and use a spatula to loosen paper. Flip crust and return to oven until golden, 5 to 6 minutes more.
  • Combine olive oil, garlic, basil, and salt in a bowl. Spread sauce on top of baked crust. Top sauce with mozzarella cheese, bruschetta sauce, and feta cheese. Return pizza to the oven until cheese is bubbly, 3 to 5 minutes more.

This is a great recipe when you don't want to wait for the dough to rise. You just mix it and allow it to rest for 5 minutes and then it's ready to go!! It yields a soft, chewy crust. For a real treat, I recommend you use bread flour and bake it on a pizza stone, but all-purpose flour works well too. Enjoy!
