Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 450°F.
  • Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and spray it with cooking spray.
  • Place cauliflower florets in a food processor and process until they have a rice-like consistency.
  • Transfer the processed cauliflower to a large bowl.
  • Add 1 cup of cheese, eggs, flour, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper to the bowl.
  • Stir everything together until it's well combined.
  • Spoon the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming two 8-inch circles.
  • Smooth out the mixture with the back of a spoon to make an even layer.
  • Bake in the oven until the bottom turns medium brown, which should take about 20 minutes.
  • Carefully flip each crust over.
  • Bake for another 10 minutes until the crusts are evenly browned.
  • Spoon ½ cup of sauce over each crust.
  • Sprinkle each with the remaining ½ cup of cheese and add half of the pepperoni to each.
  • If you like, sprinkle with any additional seasoning you prefer.
  • Bake until the cheese has melted and everything is heated through, which might take about 5 minutes. You can broil it for the last 5 minutes to brown the cheese more if you like.
  • Cut each pizza into 4 slices and serve.
