VEGAN CAULIFLOWER PIZZA CRUST

Cauliflower pizza crust is all the rave. Here’s why…

For one, it allows you to get more vegetables into your meal. Next, cauliflower crust contains significantly less carbohydrates than a crust made of bread, which can be helpful for people trying to cut back on carbs. For those who are gluten-free on top of being vegan, cauliflower crust is a great, healthy alternative to traditional bread-based crusts. And lastly, it tastes good! When prepared correctly, cauliflower crust can be a fantastic, lighter option for a pizza base.

Today, we’re letting you in on a couple of our favorite cauliflower crusts to buy pre-made, as well as some recipes to make your own at home.

Where Can I Buy Pre-made, Vegan, Cauliflower Crusts?

There are a few delicious, vegan, cauliflower crusts on the market. A couple of our favorites include Rich’s Home Cauliflower Pizza Crusts and American Flatbread Vegan Harvest Pizza.

Unfortunately, many pre-made cauliflower crusts contain egg, which makes them not vegan friendly. Be sure to check the label on your premade cauliflower crust to ensure that it does not contain eggs and is 100% vegan. Sometimes, foods will claim to be plantbased, but only include mostly plantbased ingredients. So, look for labels that say the food is vegan, or just double check the ingredients to make sure.

Can I Make My Own Vegan, Cauliflower Pizza Crust?

You sure can, and we highly recommend this option if you’re looking to try out cauliflower pizza crust, since many pre-made versions contain non-vegan ingredients. Most cauliflower pizza crust recipes include cauliflower (of course!), some type of vegan egg alternative which binds the cauliflower together, and various seasonings and spices to give the cauliflower a savory flavor. Here are a few of our favorite cauliflower crust recipes that you can whip up in the comfort of your own kitchen:

1. Vegan Cauliflower Pizza Crust by The Minimalist Baker

This recipe uses flax egg, a totally vegan, easy to make, egg alternative that uses flaxseed meal and water. When mixed with cauliflower, vegan parmesan cheese, and a variety of spices, the result is a delicious, cauliflower-based pizza dough.

2. Vegan Cauliflower Pizza Crust by Detoxinista

This recipe uses pre-made, frozen cauliflower rice that you can buy at most grocery stores. Other ingredients include ground chia or flax seeds, almond flour, and spices.

3. Crispy Cauliflower Vegan Pizza Crust by Crowded Kitchen

This recipe also uses frozen cauliflower rice, as well as a bit of a longer list of ingredients as compared to other recipes. But, if you’re looking for a more detailed recipe that is well worth the effort, definitely try this one out!

We hope you feel inspired to make your own vegan, cauliflower crust at home! All recipes listed above will give you delicious, vegan cauliflower crusts that act as perfect bases for plantbased pizzas.

Is Regular Pizza Crust Vegan?

Usually, yes! In fact, most pizza crusts are made from a base of flour, yeast, water, salt, and olive oil, which are all vegan ingredients. You can make this basic version of vegan crust on your own, or find a pre-made version of it at most grocery stores or pizza joints.

Although this basic version of pizza dough can be found or made easily, some versions of pizza dough include more, non-vegan ingredients. These ingredients are usually dairy or egg-based, which of course, makes the dough not vegan-friendly. Some doughs add in egg to give the bread a more fluffy texture, and others add cheese or butter to create a more creamy flavor.

For the most part, pizza dough and therefore, pizza crust is vegan. Which means that if you’re a vegan eater, it should be relatively simple to find a pre-made, vegan pizza crust, or to make one yourself. How great is that?

Do Traditional Pizza Joints Serve Plantbased Crust?

Simply put, yes. If you’re ordering pizza from a local pizza joint, make sure to ask if their crusts contain are vegan-friendly. If the answer is yes, you’re good to go! Just be sure that the rest of the toppings you order for your pizza are plantbased as well.

You can also find plantbased pizza crusts at fast-food pizza chains such as Domino’s or Pizza Hut. At Domino’s, you can order their thin crust which is vegan, and then top the pizza with their classic red sauce and vegetables, which are also all plantbased. Furthermore, several of their dipping sauces are vegan, including their garlic sauce, barbeque sauce, and Italian dipping cups. Pizza Hut has many vegan options when it comes to pizza crust. Their Thin ‘N Crispy Dough, Hand-Tossed Style, Pan Crust, and P’Zone Dough are all plantbased, and even their Buttery Blend Crust flavor is vegan. You can then complete your pizza with their red sauce that is plantbased, and all of their vegetables which are also, to no surprise, plantbased.
