Mini Cauliflower Pizzas

I loved this! It was delicious! I found a recipe that used almond meal instead of cheese. I use dairy free cheese, so I wasn't sure if that would work the same as real cheese. I will definitely be making this again and again and again!


Ingredients 

1 Medium sized head of cauliflower 
1/2 Teaspoon of dried basil 
1/2 Teaspoon of dried oregano 
1/2 Teaspoon of garlic powder
2 Tablespoons of almond meal
1 Tablespoon of olive oil
1 Egg
Coconut oil cooking spray

Dairy free cheese
Marinara sauce
Fresh Basil

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Place a piece of parchment paper on a baking pan and spray it with cooking spray 
2. Wash and throughly dry a small head of cauliflower. Cut off the florets, you don't need much stem. Microwave for about 2-3 minutes. Place the "steamed" cauliflower on a paper towel and soak up all the  moisture. Be careful, it will be hot

3. Once it is cooled off, pulse the cauliflower in a food processor, until you get a powdery mush
4. Add the spices,  almond meal, olive oil, and egg and mix well. (You can do this in the food processor or in another bowl by hand.) 
5. Once mixed together, use your hands or an ice cream scooper to form the dough into mini crusts on the parchment paper. Pat them down, making sure it's tightly formed together.

6. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until they start to turn golden brown and the edges crisp up. 
7. Remove from the oven and add marinara sauce, cheese, and basil and bake for another 10 minutes
