How do I make cauliflower pizza crust crunchy?

[Guest guest]

My mom and I tried making the pizza with cauliflower crust ( recipe at

http://www.examiner.com/low-carb-in-national/cauliflower-pizza-crust-worth-its-w\

ow-gold , sub SCD legal cheese like provolone for mozzarella). It tasted really

good, but the crust was limp, not the least bit crisp. Is there a trick to

making it crisp? Does it need to be a certain thickness?

Thank you!

> Ingredients

> 1 cup cauliflower, prepared (preparation explained below)

> 1 egg

> oregano

> Directions

> 1) to prepare the cauliflower, take a fresh NOT FROZEN cauliflower head and

cut the florets of and put them in a microwave safe bowl.

> 2) DO NOT ADD ANY WATER OR LIQUIDS! put in the microwave on high for 40

minutes, mixing them half the way.

> 3) with a potato masher, mash the cauliflower, if is still hard, cook a little

longer in the microwave.

> 4) when completely cooked and finely mashed, measure a cup.

> 5) mix 1 cup of the mashed cauliflower, and the egg.

> 6) put on greased loaf pan making sure that it evenly distributed, sprinkle

with oregano, and bake at 450F for 20 minutes or until golden brown.

> 7) if using for sandwiches, let cool down before using, if using for pizza as

soon as out of the oven add your pizza toppings and bake until the cheese is

melted.
