Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large head Cauliflower, grated
- 2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Pizza sauce, low carb
- 20 pieces Pepperoni slices
- 0.5 cup Italian sausage, cooked and crumbled
- 0.5 medium Bell pepper, sliced
- 0.25 small Red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Add the grated cauliflower to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high for 4-5 minutes until tender.
Once cooled, transfer the cauliflower to a clean dish towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the squeezed cauliflower, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a dough.
Transfer the cauliflower mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and press into a thin, even circle about 12 inches in diameter.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and firm.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the low-carb pizza sauce evenly over the surface.
Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then top with pepperoni slices, crumbled sausage, bell pepper slices, and red onion.
Drizzle olive oil over the toppings for a rich flavor enhancement.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy your delicious low carb pepperoni and sausage pizza!
