Other tips and tricks for making the best cauliflower pizza crust
It’s very important that you microwave the cauliflower rice to make it soft. A soft texture is ideal for the best pizza crust texture. You do not want the cauliflower to be firm for this recipe. 4 minutes is usually ideal, but if the cauliflower needs an extra minute go ahead and let it microwave for the extra time.
Make sure you really squeeze out as much liquid as possible from the cauliflower. This will ensure your crust is crispy.
Bake the cauliflower pizza crust on a pizza stone if you want that crispy pizza crust texture that we all love.
How to use a pizza stone for this recipe
If you're looking for a great pizza stone I highly recommend this one. It's very durable and makes the best pizza because the heat is distributed so well with this stone. It's also grease and burn-resistant which prevents your dough from fusing to the base and creates less mess for you!
- Insert the pizza stone into an unheated oven.
- Once the pizza stone is inside, preheat the oven to 400F
- Using a pizza peel, place the prepared cauliflower crust onto the pizza stone and bake for 25 minutes.
