Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium head cauliflower riced, about 5 cups
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella freshly shredded
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan
  • 2 large eggs lightly beaten
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/3 cup low sugar marinara sauce
  • 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella for topping
  • 8 slices pepperoni or your favorite keto toppings
  • 2 tbsp fresh basil torn, for garnish

Method
 

  1. **Heat.** Preheat oven to 425F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. **Rice.** Pulse cauliflower florets in a food processor until rice sized. Microwave in a bowl for 5 minutes, then cool 5 minutes.
  3. **Squeeze.** Wrap the cauliflower rice in a thin clean kitchen towel and twist hard until no more liquid drips out, about 1 cup of water.
  4. **Mix.** In a bowl combine squeezed cauliflower, 1 cup mozzarella, parmesan, eggs, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  5. **Shape.** Press the dough on the parchment into a 12 inch round, about 1/4 inch thick. Bake 15 minutes until golden and set.
  6. **Top.** Spread marinara to the edges. Sprinkle remaining 1.5 cups mozzarella, then arrange pepperoni on top.
  7. **Bake.** Return to the oven 8 to 10 minutes until cheese bubbles and starts to brown. Rest 5 minutes, garnish with basil, slice and serve.

Notes

Use one full medium head of cauliflower, about 5 cups riced. Microwave the riced cauliflower 5 minutes to cook before squeezing the water out. Squeeze in a clean thin kitchen towel, not a thick terrycloth which absorbs the cauliflower.
