Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the cauliflower into florets. Using a food processor, pulse the florets until they resemble rice-sized grains.
Microwave the riced cauliflower for approximately 5 minutes until softened. Let it cool for a few minutes.
Once cooled, use a clean kitchen towel to wring out as much moisture from the cauliflower as possible.
In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower, eggs, shredded mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, oregano, garlic powder, and salt. Mix until thoroughly combined.
Place the cauliflower mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Shape it into a pizza crust approximately 1/4 inch thick.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
Remove the crust from the oven and let it cool slightly before adding toppings.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the crust. Distribute the pineapple chunks and prosciutto slices evenly over the sauce.
Sprinkle the grated mozzarella cheese on top of the toppings.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven, garnish with fresh basil leaves, and slice into wedges. Serve immediately.
