It’s a day ending in “y” so naturally I’m craving pizza. specifically my Butternut Squash, Brussels Sprouts + Prosciutto Cauliflower pizza!
Try swapping your standard marinara pizza sauce for a whipped butternut squash sauce – you won’t be sorry! It’s slightly sweet and balances the saltiness of the prosciutto perfectly. The Brussels sprouts get crispy and add a nice crunch on top along with the pork.
Butternut Squash, Brussels Sprouts + Prosciutto Cauliflower Crust Pizza
Swap out your standard marinara sauce with a whipped butternut squash sauce on your pizza! The squash balances the salty prosciutto perfectly.
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made frozen cauliflower crust
- 1 cup shaved Brussels sprouts
- 4-5 slices prosciutto cut into slices
- 2 cups cubed butternut squash
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cup plain almond milk
- 2 tbs. grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Bake your cauliflower crust according to your package directions except place it directly onto your oven rack instead of a cooking sheet! Remove from oven once baked and turn heat to 400 degrees.
- On a sheet pan lined with foil, place butternut squash cubes on one side and shaved Brussels sprouts on the other. Drizzle with olive oil and season everything with salt, pepper and garlic salt. Roast for 20 mins then remove to cool.
- In a food processor, combine roasted squash, 1/4 cup almond milk and 1 tbs. parmesan until smooth like pizza sauce. Top crust with an even layer (more sauce for thinner crust, less sauce for doughier), then top with 3/4 cup mozzarella cheese. layer on roasted shaved brussels sprouts then top with remaining mozzarella and 1 tbs. grated parmesan.
- Bake for 10 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbling. Remove from oven and top with shaved prosciutto! Serve warm or at room temp.
