Instructions

Step 1: Prep Cauliflower

1. Rice cauliflower florets in a food processor until fine.

4. Mix until dough-like.

Step 3: Shape Crusts
5. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a muffin tin.
6. Press 2 tbsp mixture into each cup, forming a well in the center.

Step 4: Bake Crusts
7. Bake 15–18 minutes until golden. Pat down puffed centers with a spoon.

Step 5: Add Toppings
8. Spread 1 tsp sauce in each cup.
9. Top with remaining ½ cup mozzarella, pepperoni, and optional toppings.

Step 6: Final Bake
10. Bake 5–7 minutes until cheese melts. Cool 5 minutes before removing.
