Ingredients

8-9 cups cauliflower florets (or about one medium-large head) - stems and leaves removed
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 large eggs - beaten
1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese - shredded

Instructions

Preheat oven. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Prep two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Prep cauliflower. Remove the stems and leaves from the cauliflower and place florets in a food processor. Pulse until it’s riced, or is in small crumbled (as seen below).
8-9 cups cauliflower florets (or about one medium-large head)
Cook cauliflower. Add riced cauliflower in a large bowl and cook in the microwave until softened, approximately 6-7 minutes. Let cool slightly.
Strain. Spoon cooked cauliflower into a clean dish towel and squeeze excess moisture out. (You should get about one cup of liquid out.)
Combine crust ingredients. Combine the cauliflower rice, the eggs, both types of cheese, and seasonings. Stir well.
2 large eggs, 1 cup mozzarella cheese, 1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Shape pizzas. Press half of the mixture onto each prepared pan, using a spoon (or your hands) to flatten each to about a 9×7 inch round, or whatever shape you like. The crust should be thin.
Bake. Bake on two racks of your oven, rotating them as needed, for about a total of 25 minutes. The crust should be browned on both the tops and bottoms.
Add toppings. Remove pans and add your desired toppings. Bake again. You can speed the process up by broiling the toppings, but watch closely to avoid burning them!
