Gluten-Free, Dairy Free, Vegan Pizza
Pizza is something most everyone misses when they have to eat gluten free! I have a yummy recipe for a Vegan & Gluten Free pizza made with a cauliflower crust! Cauliflower crusts are the thing right now, making a recipe low carb and healthy.
Servings: 6 servings
Calories: 81kcal
Ingredients
- One head cauliflower
- 1 c. Vegan shredded cheese mozzarella style (I like Daiya but Trader Joe's is good too)
- One egg
- 1 tsp. minced garlic
- Salt and pepper to taste
- ¼ c. Pizza Sauce
- Choice of toppings peppers, onions, tomatoes, mushrooms, black olives, etc
Instructions
- In a food processor, chop the cauliflower into fine pieces.
- Microwave the cauliflower in a bowl for about 7-10 minutes until soft. Pour the cauliflower onto a towel, wrap tightly, and wring out excess moisture from the cauliflower.
- In a large bowl, stir 2 cups cauliflower (it may not take the whole head), ½ c. of cheese (save the other ½ for topping), and one egg. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Spread the “pizza dough” mixture evenly onto a pizza pan or pizza stone. Sprinkle garlic on top. Bake the pizza dough at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes until golden brown and the moisture in the center looks evaporated (the edges will begin to look toasted and crispy).
- Allow to cool for about ten minutes. Add the pizza sauce and your favorite toppings. Bake for another 10-15 minutes.
- Allow the pizza to cool significantly before slicing. Some vegan cheese brands need time to cool after cooking so that the crust can completely bind.
