Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the cauliflower into florets and pulse them in a food processor until they reach a rice-like consistency.
Transfer the riced cauliflower to a microwave-safe bowl and cover it. Microwave on high for 4-5 minutes or until tender. Let it cool slightly.
Place the cooked cauliflower in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial for a non-soggy crust.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained cauliflower, eggs, grated Parmesan, 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a dough-like consistency.
Transfer the cauliflower mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread it out evenly to form a round or rectangular crust about 1/4 inch thick.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until it turns golden brown and starts to become crispy.
Remove the baked crust from the oven and spread the sugar-free tomato sauce evenly over the top.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then arrange the sliced cherry tomatoes and fresh basil leaves on top.
Drizzle with olive oil for added flavor.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow the pizza to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
