  • Add all the cauliflower crumbs to a kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Twist the cloth until water from the cauliflower comes out. Continue to squeeze until no more water comes out.

  • Add the cauliflower to a large bowl. Add in your eggs, flour, parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Mix.

  • Preheat your air fryer to 400ºF/204ºC. You do this by setting your air fryer to the temperature for about 5 minutes.
  • Cut out parchment paper the size of your Air Fryer. (This is not necessary, but it does help in the transfer of the pizza to the air fryer. You can also just use a spatula to transfer.) Take 2 tbsp of your cauliflower pizza into the palm of your hand. Roll in a ball, and then flatten into a thin layer. Add as many pizzas as you can to your parchment paper. My air fryer will fit 4 at a time.
    Cook at 400ºF/204ºC for 8 minutes. Flip the pizza over and cook at 400ºF/204ºC for 3-4 minutes (depending on your preference of softness to crunchiness).

  • Flip the pizza back over again where the first side is on the bottom again. Add your pizza sauce, cheese, and 3 pepperonis’. Cook again at 360ºF/182ºC for 4 minutes.

Notes

AIR FRYER CAULIFLOWER PIZZAS HINTS AND TIPS:

Pro Tip: My air fryer basket holds 4 pizzas at a time, so your cooking/batch timings may work slightly differently, depending on the size of your machine.
Pro Tip: This recipe can be made in the air fryer unit with a basket or the air fryer oven. If you are using the air fryer oven, use the middle rack and select the "Air Fry" function.
Pro Tip: Check your food as it cooks. Each air fryer runs a bit differently. Sometimes airfrying is a trial and error process. Check your food as it cooks to learn your air fryer better!  When cooking a new recipe or food items be sure to check your food often to help avoid over/under cooking.
