Instructions
To Make The Cauliflower Crust
- Preheat the oven to 450-500°F (230°C-260°C) and line a baking pan with baking paper.
- Cut the cauliflower into florets and, using a blender or food processor, process to get a rice-resembling consistency.
- Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and blanch the cauliflower for 1-2 minutes. Place in a cheesecloth or kitchen towel and squeeze out all the liquids. It’s important to squeeze out as many liquids as possible.
- Mix with the egg, ¼ cup mozzarella cheese, parmesan, and oregano. Knead to make dough.
- Spread the dough on the lined baking pan and shape it into a circle (or any shape you prefer).
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, until slightly golden.
To Make The Pizza
- Remove from the oven and spread a layer of tomato puree on top of the cauliflower pizza crust. Add the remaining mozzarella cheese and the halved tomatoes.
- Return to the oven for 5 more minutes.
- Let it cool down slightly before slicing and serving.
