- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¾ tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- ½ cup almond flour
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
- ¼ cup water
Toppings

- pizza sauce

Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to the boil. Leave to simmer.
- Add cauliflower florets to food processor. Blitz until ground to size and texture similar to rice grains. If you don’t have a food processor, you can use a box grater.
- Balance a sieve over the pot of boiled water. Add the cauliflower grains to the sieve and steam. Bring the water back to the boil if needed.
- Transfer cauliflower tea towel or cheeseloth. Squeeze or press to drain out as much water as possible.
- Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C)
- In a large bowl, add the cauliflower rice and all other ingredients. Combine thoroughly and form a smooth ball.
- Place parchment paper on a kitchen surface. Place the cauliflower rice dough on the paper and flatten with your hands. Roll it out to form a round pizza base, about ½-inch thick. Flatten and smooth it as much as possible.
- Carefully transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Add your choice of toppings (suggestions above) and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until crust starts to brown.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
