Keto pizza crusts made of cauliflower are very easy to make. Let’s have a look at what you need to succeed in this delicious crispy cauliflower pizza crust anytime. First, you need a food processor to pulse your cauliflower florets into a rice-like texture.
Otherwise, you can directly buy cauliflower rice from the store. We call cauliflower rice the result of grated or pulsed cauliflower florets.
Cooked cauliflower is an excellent Keto-friendly vegetable. Carbs in cauliflower only reach 1.7g of net carbs per 100g once cooked. So this great recipe is perfect if you’re on the keto diet!
After your cauliflower is pulsed, you need to steam your cauliflower rice. The best technique is to steam your cauliflower into a microwave-proof bowl. Obviously, if you don’t have a microwave, you need to use a vegetable steamer or boil your cauliflower rice in water.
Finally, for a perfect result, drain all the residual water left in your steamed cauliflower rice. You need a clean towel for this.

Absolutely delicious, I love this Pizza receip the most!
I just made this pizza crust& it turned out so good. Didn’t feel bad for eating it.
Can you do meal prep with these where you roll the crusts out thin and leave it in the baking tray then freeze it for later? Just curious if I could prep several and deep freeze them then add toppings and bake from frozen later?
Of course, it will work very well. No need to defrost, add topping on the prebaked frozen crust and pop in the oven as a regular pizza. Enjoy, XOXO Carine.
this recipe didnt stste how many carbs per slice
Sorry for that ! The nutrition panel is now showing properly. One slice of crust brings you 3 g net carbs. The recipe serve 6 slices. Enjoy, XOXO Carine.
do you preface this? I dont see further instructions on this except the 3 ingredients and cooking califlower in microwave.
thanks
Hi.. I cant seem to find which step the egg has bee used in.. can this b made without the egg ?
In step 6, you can also use a flaxegg for an egg free cauliflower pizza crust. See recipe note to see how to make flxegg. Enjoy the pizza crust, XOXO Carine.
Sorry there was an issue wih the recipe plugin not showing the recipe it is fixed now ! Enjoy the crust. XOXO Carine.
Hi. Can you make this without cooking the cauliflower?
Hi, Unfortunately no. It won’t hold together. The cooked cauliflower is soft and the cheese stick to it creating the most delicious soft, crispy pizza crust when baked. Enjoy the recipe my friend. XOXO Carine.
Can you use a difference grated cheese for example mozzarella instead of Parmesan cheese
Yes, sure any grated cheese works in this recipe. My favorite are mozarella, cheddar, emmental or edam.
Hi, have you ever froze this Pizza? If yes, what did you do with it after it came out of the freezer? Thanks.
Hi, no I did not freeze it but I will recommend you to pre-bake the crust before freezing.
Holy Smokes! Just made this for me and my husband (the man who refuses to eat veggies). Not only did he devour it, he asked when I could make more. Huge success, THANKS!

Just made this and it is PERFECT!! I added some finely diced leeks since I didn’t have quite enough cauliflower after having used the rest to make cauliflower mash earlier this week. I also had more like 2/3-3/4 cup of parmesan.
That is great! It is nice to read positive comments 🙂 Leek should taste good as well a must try for my next one. I recently tested broccoli instead of cauliflower and except the strange greenish color for a pizza it taste awesome !
I’m trying this for the 1st time. there was a little broch in the cali i am using and i thought what the heck.
