Eggless Caulifower Crust Pizza

This pizza has been having its fame and popularity in the social network for quite sometime, mostly for the fact that it's gluten free. A variation from the routine diet is much preferred on Wednesdays for me. So Wednesday dinners are usually anything other than Roti or Rice, which makes it range from Pizzas to Burgers and whatever can come in between!

I love making my food from scratch! I am sure there are quite a lot of people like me who prefers that way too. It gives me joy, satisfaction and assurance about what goes into my loved ones' tummy. I love baking and I may not be an expert, but I try out everything I can. The only preference being eggless since I rarely like to add eggs when I bake. So when I saw this pizza with cauliflower base doing the rounds, I had to make it. It was doughless, no-yeast and less work. What more reason do you need especially when you crave for pizza all of a sudden and there is no proofed dough at home! I scouted the net for eggless recipes and finally figured out a way to do it!
