Ingredients

For the Spaghetti Squash Crust:

  • 2 cups spaghetti squash strands about 1 small squash
  • olive oil spray
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 pinch of salt additional to taste
  • 1 large egg whisked

For the Pizza Topping:

  • 1/4 cup pizza sauce
  • 1/2 cup shredded light mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F. Carefully cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Then, lightly spray the spaghetti squash with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast the spaghetti squash cut side down on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper for 45-50 minutes, or until tender. Once done, let it cool before making the crust.
  • Using a fork, scrape out the spaghetti squash strands into a kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible for the best crust texture. You’ll need about 2 cups of drained spaghetti squash for the pizza crust base.
  • Add the drained spaghetti squash strands to a large bowl. Season with oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of salt. Lightly mix these ingredients.
  • Add a whisked egg to the bowl. Mix until well combined.
  • Transfer the mixture onto a 12-inch pizza pan lined with parchment paper. From there, press it into a round pizza shape.
  • Bake the crust at 400°F for 20-25 minutes, until the crust is firm and lightly golden.
  • Remove the crust from the oven. Evenly spread the pizza sauce over the top and sprinkle with light mozzarella cheese. Add any additional toppings you love.
  • Return the pizza to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 5-7 minutes. Once done, slice and enjoy your low-carb spaghetti squash pizza warm.

Notes

  • Let the Spaghetti Squash Cool: After roasting the spaghetti squash, make sure to let it cool before scraping out the strands and making the crust.
  • Crust Tip: After roasting, squeeze out as much liquid as possible from the spaghetti squash strands. This helps keep your crust from getting soggy.
  • Evenly Press the Crust: When shaping the crust, press it firmly onto the parchment paper. A consistent thickness helps it bake evenly.
  • Optional Toppings: Sliced bell peppers, mushrooms, spinach, olives, cherry tomatoes, cooked chicken, pepperoni, or your favorite toppings.
