    It was as delicious as you had said it would be! To save time I just bought cauliflower rice at Costco and poured out a cup and cooked it over the stove until it was quite dry. Then I use some paper towels to make sure I got most of the moisture out. The rest was magic!

    Very good. Used 9” pie dish with good results. Used turkey pepperoni , garden fresh banana peppers chopped fine, black olives, , grated mozzarella cheese( more than 1/2 cup) . Tomato sauce. I didn’t feel uncomfortably stuffed after eating 2 pieces like I do with regular pizza. My granddaughter & my niece loved it. This is totally creative…..

    Can u use vegan cheddar instead of Parmesan

  • Glee Reply

    I have a recipe exactly like this except it called for 2 cups of riced cauliflower. It was awesome but the crust crumbled. Is it because of the extra cauliflower, or is there something else i need to do differently?

    • Wayne Hamrick Reply

      There are 3 things that will guarantee that your crust will come out perfect… The first thing is that you MUST make sure that you get most of the moisture out. Second using parmesan cheese but not Kraft. The reason is you ideally want to have shaved or string parmesan cheese so it binds well. Finally using an egg will help “glue” the crust together.

  • Peggy Pittman Reply

    Advise – start with about 3 cups of riced cauliflower. When cooked and drained, you’ll end up with about 3 cups of cooked riced cauliflower.

    Instead of ricing the cauliflower, can I buy packaged “cauliflower rice” from Whole Foods and use that instead? Thanks!

  • Rosa Reply

    This crust is so good I will definitely make it again unfortunately I forgot to add the salt but it was still very good.

  • Jody Reply

    Delicious, and will make again. The only adjustment I will make is using less salt. Maybe because I topped with pepperoni, onion, red pepper, tomatoes and cheese.

    I love this recipe and it tastes delicious. I a have shortcut I would like to share with you all. Instead of buying cauliflower and then having to rice it, There’s a company that already makes riced cauliflower that looks like rice! I have used it before and it gives you the same end result!

    This was Amazing! I made regular pizza for my family and this cauliflower pizza crust pizza for me. I topped mine with sautéed onion, peppers, zucchini, tomatoes and mushrooms. This was the best pizza I have had that was completely gluten free. Even my daughter couldn’t resist trying this. She kept coming back for more. I will definitely make this again.

    I just tried this last night. It was wonderful. The only tweaks I made were I added 2 eggs as opposed to 1. Also, after the cooking time, I flipped it and cooked an additional 5-8 minutes. This made it that it did not crumble at all. My husband cannot stand mashed cauliflower I made him traditional pizza and myself this crust. He was really surprised by how good it was. That is equal to saying it was amazing!!! Thanks for sharing!

    I’ve made this a few times. I’ve doubled the ingredients to cover the pizza pan and it seems to help with making the crust a little thicker. After trying it a few times I think I finally got it perfect!

    Microwaving cauliflower for five minutes left me with not much to work with. Luckily I chopped up plenty. Three minutes worked better and didn’t have to drain afterward. Great recipe nonetheless.

    This recipe is kick ass! Super easy, great ingredients and excellent end-result. The crust turned out crispy to the point that it held all the toppings the second day out of the fridge!

    Made this recipe today, first time cauliflower crust maker here! It came out really good – I think I could have removed a little more water bc the dough was a little soft towards the center or perhaps I could have made it thinner, as I was worried about it being too thin! But all in all it was yummy and my toddler & husband actually enjoyed it!

      You won’t see visible water but if you use a paper towel to test how much water is left in there….on man!! I use SEVERAL paper towels squeezing and squeezing until it is very matted. That way my crust is much more crunchy.

      Nutritional yeast has a cheesy flavor so it could work as a replacement in terms of taste, however it doesn’t have the browning properties of the cheese for the crust. It would be worth to try it though.

  • Crissy Reply

    Wow, I love the versatility of cauliflower! Rice, mash, tacos, alfredo sauce, I love cauliflower everything. This pizza is my new obsession. I was unsure of the recipe because the cauliflower cooks down a lot and it didn’t look like enough, but it was perfeft. The temp of the oven, timing, seasoning, everything was perfect. I just did mozzarella and basil, but the way this crust holds up, there are plenty of topping options. I can’t wait to make this again!

  • Anne-Marie Reply

    This was SO delicious and really easy to make. I think my ratios were a little off and the mixture seemed pretty gooey so I took the liberty of adding some almond flour and flaxseed to the mix to help soak up some of the extra moisture and it worked like a charm. Definitely a new favorite!! Thanks so much for the great recipes and website! :)

  • Leila Vanover Reply

    I loved this recipe! I used frozen riced cauliflower from Trader Joe’s. I just cooked it in a pan and then pressed the liquid out. My husband told me it was “surprisingly delicious and you should make it again”. And I thought it was super flavorful. If I would change one thing, I would be sure to spread my toppings into thinner layers. The crust is not as sturdy as bread and was folding under the weight of my sauce, veggies, and cheese.

    Does the 1 cup of cauliflower refer to before or after drying? I ask because I used a fairly large cauliflower and before drying I had 3 cups and afterwards I barely had one.

    Hi Chrissy, I am totally diggin’ this pizza crust but may be reading the instructions incorrectly. It lists under pizza crust ingredients 1/2 cup of mozzarella, but in the directions, there is no mention of when to add it to the crust. Do you add 1/2 mozzarella cup to the crust or do you just add it on top as one of your selected pre-cooked toppings? Thanks!

  • Jake Reply

    I wanna try this for so long but I’m doubting about the cheese. I have an intolerance for cheese, can I use less cheese than the recipe? Or different kind of cheese?

    And another question, can I use only the egg-white or is the whole egg needed?

      Yes, I had the same trouble. I too would love suggestions on how to make the middle cook better.

    • Evelyn Reply

      I wonder if half way through your put aluminum foil around the crust would keep the edges from browning too much before the center cooks. Sorta like what you do with a pie crust?

    I made this tonight and we loved it! I was nervous when I mixed the cooked cauliflower with the other ingredients as it appeared to be too liquid, it wasn’t! After it cooked it turned out perfect! Trust the directions. Our only regret was not making more. The end product was a delicious thin crust (very cheesy) pepperoni pizza! We will definitely make this again.

  • LC Reply

    I made two pizzas with this last night and it was a Amazing!!!! I will admit the first batch that I made I put shredded Parmesan (instead of grated) and mozzarella into the mixture because I miss read the information. I thought oh well I’ll give it a try since I’ve already mixed it and I have another batch in case it doesn’t turn out. The crust was more floppy than I thought it would be but it turned out so cheesy and full of flavor. (next time I’m going to try to flip it and cook it on the other side maybe it’ll be a little more crispy) The next batch I made it with just the grated Parmesan and I actually liked it with the shredded Parmesan instead. Don’t get me wrong they both were amazing but I preferred the shredded Parmesan over the grated, taste and texture wise. This will be the way I make pizzas from now on.

    When I read the ingredients, I assumed the cauliflower was to be cooked and then riced. As I read the instructions, I realized the cauliflower was to be riced and then cooked. Each method will lead to different results so please correct the ingredients to read “riced and then cooked cauliflower.”

  • Nancy Johnson Reply

    I was able to get 6 cups of riced cauliflower – so SIX PIZZAS. I par baked them for 10 minutes and freeze them. I will add my toppings and cook for another 10 minutes when I need a pizza fix. You are absolutely right when you say that you don’t taste the cauliflower – just the toasted cheese that everyone loves. My only change is that I bake both times on parchment paper. Even with the spray, I sometimes have trouble getting the crust to release from the pan.

  • Nicole Reply

    This is the worst recipe! Do not follow unless you want burnt cauliflower and wasted time. Followed the instructions for microwaving the cauliflower, even significantly lowered the cook time to accomodate my microwave, and still burnt 3 times. Very disappointed!

    I have recently been substituting cauliflower for half of the potatoes when I make mashed potatoes. I add butter, parsley, and a can of cream of celery soup.

    I finally tried this recipe after wanting to try the cauliflower crust for a long time, and I thought it was FANTASTIC! The flavor was delicious (and I’m going to remember the suggestion to rice a clove of garlic w/the cauliflower), the texture was good (a tiny bit flimsier than regular thin-crust pizza), and best of all, low-carb for my husband, who needs to watch carbs now. I was hesitant to add a lot more cheese, since the crust has cheese, so I dropped goat cheese here and there and topped with red pepper, baby bella mushrooms and arugula. So, so good! And, I feel like the base crust offers lots of options – I’m thinking base for appetizers, like a replacement for the cold veggie pizza seen at lots of parties :) Can’t wait to experiment some more!!

    Most pan sprays have flour in them so use Olive Oil, it also comes in a spray now.

    This recipe is very good, just remember to dump the processed cauliflower in a tea towel to wrong it out before mixing in the other ingredients. You will see that it taste more like pizza crust.

Then I put some non dairy/non gluten cheese on top . Its amazing!!!

    Soooo yummy and perfect for my family’s Keto life style. Absolutely will be a staple in our house from now on. I tried steaming my first batch and it added to much moisture. Still worked on but I will stick to microwaving from now on as the directions say :-)

    You can pop a few garlic cloves in the food processor while you’re ricing the cauliflower. SOOO yummy.

    Recipe needs 1/2 c. rice flour to hold better. (absorbs excess liquid and holds it for eating.)
    Unless you were using a dry mozzarella then, my bad.

    I made a couple of these after spotting them on The Londoner. They are delicious but I have to ask – how did you manage to transfer 2 intact slices to a plate to photograph? Mine stuck to the baking paper and didn’t hold the shape of traditional pizza slices…they crumbled…but they do taste deeelish!

    I tried the cauliflower pizza crust yesterday and it was excellent. Now I don’t have to worry about the dough. Mixing the herbs, garlic and cheese really made the crust taste terrific. I use a pizza stone and it bake beautifully. Added fresh tomatoes shrimp and 3 gourmet cheeses. Fanstastico.

    If you don’t use a microwave, can the cauliflower be steamed? baked? Thx.

    Thank you for this recipe. My daughter is gluten free amd it is a pain trying to find a dough that passes her approval. this can’t help but work since she really likes cauliflower.

    I’ve been looking for a good recipe for cauliflower crust, so grateful to have come across yours! Bookmarked and trying! Will let you know how I make out :)

    This is fantastic! I’ve been dying to cook pizza for my best friend when she comes to visit, who is Coeliac, and I live in Paris, not the most gluten friendly place in the world, so I’m really excited to try this out :)

    This has got to violate some law of nature.

    I’ve seen this idea floating around the internet but haven’t tried it yet. I think when I do, I will be hooked. Perfect way to sneak in veggies to unsuspecting mouths!!

    Every time I see a black crust (burnt or charred), either on bread, steak or any thing baked or fried, I can’t stop thinking of the cancer risk.
    Charred cauliflower – no go!

    Otherwise, cauliflower pizza crust sounds great.

    I just made this for the first time and it was amazing!!! Thought my pizza days were over but not now!!

    Oh yum! I’ve been noticing just recently how versatile cauliflower is, but never in a million years did I think pizza crust. Can’t wait to give it a try. Might be the perfect way to sneak a veggie to my eldest.

    Made this for dinner last week. It was amazing! You should definitely try this recipe! Make sure to spread the middle super thin as it seems to cook a bit slower than the edges. Bon appetit!

    I gave this recipe a try last night and it was awesome!
    I was really surprised with how well the cauliflower held it’s shape like dough.
    It was pretty delicious too.
    Thanks for sharing this with us!

    I totally have to try this, the crust by itself even looks scrumptious!

  • Stephanie Crane Reply

    Love cauliflower crust! My new fav cauliflower recipe is Fake Potato Soup. I do a traditional baked potato soup and sub cauliflower for the potatoes. So yum! Love your pics, too!

    I don’t own a microwave, what would be the substitute? I’m guessing just sauteeing it a little?

    • gc Reply

      I would steam it in a pan

    • Rowan Reply

      I put it in the oven spread out on a cookie sheet on 375° for 15 min. Works great!

    • Stephy Reply

      I was going to make this soon, and I dont have a microwave either. Im just going to boil the florets a bit, then chop fine by hand to avoid it becoming mush in a blender.

    • Tst Reply

      Thank u so much for asking eco-baby, as I don’t have a microwave either. Rowan, your answer works great – especially now that our extended Indian summer is over here in Los Angeles!

    I too feel awful after eating pizza lately, never use to make me feel so bad. Pizza is one of my favorite foods. I might need to try this recipe out. Thanks for sharing.

  • Aly M. Reply

    My 2 year old has a new-found love for cauliflower! I made him some oven-roasted cauliflower for his snack today and he loved it. I’m going to totally try this recipe because I happen to love cauliflower, too. I know what you mean about that feeling after eating pizza. The dough is just too much for me to handle sometimes, so I am excited you shared this option! Thanks

  • Jessica Reply

    Looks amazing! I have always wanted to try cauliflower pizza but it seems so difficult. BUT…now I think I will give it a shot! :)
