Prep the Crust

The awesome part about this crust is that it is easy to make and doesn't require rising.

1. Fill a large pot up with 1 cup of water and bring to a boil

2. Cut up the cauliflower in small pieces on a cutting board

3. Add to a food processor (in small batches so it doesn't overflow)

4. Pulse until very small crumbles form

5. Transfer to the boiling water

6. Cover, and cook for 5 minutes on medium heat

Drain/Transfer/Cook

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

2. Transfer cooked cauliflower onto a clean cloth and make sure you squeeze all the water out. Try to dry it as much as possible. It may take another towel.

3. Add cauliflower to pot and mix in egg and ricotta until combined. Add salt and pepper.

4. Transfer crust into a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper (make sure its parchment paper not foil or it will stick to the pan).

5. Shape into a circle or rectangle.

6. Cook for 40 mins on the middle rack or until golden brown.
