I've had a craving for pizza forever for a while now, but I've been trying to eat healthier- follow a quasi-paleo diet (I could never completely give up cheese or any dairy)
Found a few great cauliflower garlic bread recipes, thanks to Pinterest- and modified them to make my own deliciousness
I also make the best marinara sauce you've ever tasted, thankyouverymuch (I know, I am so modest with my cooking)
This is definitely a repeat- soon!
Here's what you're going to need:
Baking sheet
Parchment paper
Rolling Pin (optional)
Food processor (highly recommended, or else you'll be chopping for a long time)
2 small-medium mixing bowls
1 small regular bowl
Dough ingredients:
1 head of cauliflower, riced
1/2 cup shredded mozarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp dried rosemary
1 clove crushed garlic
1 tsp dried garlic powder
1 pinch salt
Topping ingredients:
2 Tbspn softened butter
2 cloved finely chopped garlic
1/4 cup shredded mozarella
1/4 cup shredded parmesan
Chop the cauliflower, then pulse in a food processor until riced
Scoop this into a baking dish and cook at 350 for 15 minutes
After you take it out, let it cool a little, then transfer to a cheesecloth or clean dish towel and squeeze the heck out of it- you want to get as much liquid out of it as possible
Turn the oven up to 450
Mix together the riced cauliflower, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, beaten egg, crushed garlic, garlic powder, oregano, rosemary, and salt
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and shape dough into a thin rectangle with your hands, or temporarily cover with a second sheet of parchment and roll out
Until it looks roughly like this:
The uncooked dough was already making my kitchen smell delish |
Then place in the oven for 20 minutes. If you don't like yours too crispy, only cook it for 15 minutes
While that's cooking, mix together the softened butter and the other cloves of garlic
Mmmm.. yummy buttery goodness |
Also mix together the cheese topping- the rest of the mozarella and parm
When the dough is cooked to golden and crispy, brush on the butter mixture, then sprinkle the cheese on top.
Put back in the oven about 5-ish minutes, until cheese has melted. I kept it in longer, wanting brown bubbly cheese, but it did dry the cheese top out a little bit, so next time I will limit it to 5 min.
ENJOY!
My husband and I practically ate the whole thing in 1 sitting!
