Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cauliflower head cut into florets, stems completely removed
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano flakes dried
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried basil flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese + a pinch to garnish
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • salt
  • pepper
  • 1/2 zucchini medium, spiralized into noodles
  • 1/2 cup tomato sauce
  • 2 basil leaves chopped
  • 2 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese + 1 teaspoon

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  • Bring a medium pot halfway-filled with water to a boil.
  • While the water warms up, place the cauliflower florets into a KitchenAid(R) Food Processor and pulse until rice-like.
  • Once the water is boiling, add in the cauliflower rice and cook for 2 minutes. When done, drain into a mesh colander. Let cool for 2-3 minutes in the refrigerator and then, in batches, place the cauliflower rice onto a thin kitchen towel and strain the rice into a sink, until all excess moisture is released.
  • Place the strained cauliflower rice in a medium mixing bowl with the oregano, basil, garlic powder, egg and 2 tablespoons of parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper and mix thoroughly until cauliflower mixture becomes dough-like.
  • Take out the KitchenAid(R) Nonstick 12" Thin Crust Pizza Pan and place the dough in the center. Spread the dough out until it's about 1/2-inch thick, creating about a 7-8" in diameter personal pizza in the center of the pan. Round the edges.
  • Bake the cauliflower crust in the oven for 15 minutes. When done, remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack.
  • Assemble the pizza toppings.
  • Place the tomato sauce in the center of the pizza crust and spread evenly around, leaving three-quarters of an inch from the edges for the crust. Top with basil.
  • Top the tomato sauce and basil with the zucchini noodles and sprinkle with the extra teaspoon of parmesan cheese.
  • Bake for 7-10 more minutes or until zucchini noodles wilt and the cauliflower crust is browned on the bottom.
  • Using the KitchenAid(R) pizza wheel, slice the pizza into 4 or 8 slices. With a cauliflower crust, the pizza crust is less likely to fall apart if sliced into 8 smaller pieces.
