Gluten Free & Dairy Free Cauliflower Pizza Crust or Tortilla

Grain Free | Nut Free | Paleo & Keto Friendly

Ready in 1 hour and 10 minutes

Server 1 large pizza crust or about 6 small tortillas

Only 6g net carbs per Recipe

Ingredients

3 cups fresh cauliflower florets

2 eggs

¼ tsp sea salt

1 tsp xanthan gum

Preparation:

Preheat oven 400F | Parchment lined 12" round pizza pan

In a double boiler, steam your 3 cups of cauliflower. (In other words, cook on high heat, covered over a pot of boiling water until the cauliflower is cooked through or until a fork easily goes through the cauliflower).
In a mixing bowl, place the cooked cauliflower and use a potato masher to mash the cauliflower. You want to mash it until it looks like mashed potatoes.
On a plate, place a clean kitchen towel or paper towels and place the cooked cauliflower and blot or squeeze the moisture out of the cauliflower. You might have to blot several times to get the moisture out.
Place the cauliflower mash back in the mixing bowl and add the eggs, salt, and xanthan gum. Mix until its fully mixed and thickens.
Place, the cauliflower mixture on to your parchment lined pizza pan and spread the mixture in a circular motion out until it's about 1/4" thick. Or for tortillas, just make them smaller to your desired size.
Bake them for 20 minutes. Then take it out and sandwich the crust with another piece of parchment as big as the pizza on top of the crust and flip the crust upside down by holding both of the parchment papers. Then take the top parchment paper off. Continue to bake the other side for another 15-20 minutes. ( You are trying to dry out the crust) **For the tortilla just bake the tortillas, 15-20 minutes on each side.
Then add your favorite sauce and toppings and bake for another 15-20 minutes or until the toppings are cooked through and melted.
Let it cool down for 3-5 minutes and cut in to desired pieces. Enjoy!
