Ingredients

THE DOUGH

  • 2 1/4 tsp Rapid Rise Yeast 7 grams
  • 2 tsp Sugar
  • 3/4 tsp Salt
  • 1 cup Water warm, but not too hot
  • 2 cups Bread Flour add 2 tbsp for handling if needed

THE SAUCE

  • 1 Yellow Onion diced
  • 3 cloves Garlic
  • 2 tbsp Butter we use unsalted
  • 2 tbsp Flour
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • As desired Freshly Cracked Black Pepper
  • 1 1/4 cup Cream

THE TOPPINGS

  • 1 Bag Frozen Rainbow Cauliflower 9.5 oz
  • 8 oz Italian Blend Cheese Shredded

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 F / 220 C.
  • Combine warm water, sugar, and yeast in a bowl. Set on the stovetop and let sit for 5-10 minutes.
  • After letting the yeast mixture sit, add the bread flour and salt and mix to combine.
  • Knead the dough in the bowl for 5 minutes. It will be kind of sticky!
  • Return the bowl to the stovetop and let the dough rise for 45 minutes.
  • During this rise time, assemble everything else. To start, cook your frozen cauliflower according to the package instructions.
  • Dice the onion.
  • In a pan, add the diced onion, butter, salt, and freshly cracked black pepper. Cook on medium heat until translucent.
  • While cooking the onion, mince the garlic cloves.
  • Once the onion is done cooking, add the garlic and cook until fragrant, roughly 30 seconds.
  • Reduce the heat to low. Add the flour and mix until evenly combined.
  • 1/4 cup at a time, add the cream to the sauce. Stir after each addition and wait until the sauce has thickened slightly before adding more.
  • Add more freshly cracked pepper, as desired. Once the sauce has thickened slightly (it shouldn't be thin, but should still be able to "run" a little bit when you drag a spoon across the pan), take the sauce off of the heat.
  • Spread your pizza dough onto a circular pizza pan. Cook at 425 F / 220 C for 5 minutes.
  • Once the dough has pre-baked, top it as follows: alfredo sauce, 75% of the cheese, the frozen cauliflower, and then the remaining 25% of the cheese.
  • Bake at 425 F / 220 C for 15-17 minutes.
  • Enjoy!
