Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Spaghetti Squash Pizza
  1. Start by piercing the spaghetti squash a few times with a fork to allow steam to escape. Microwave it on high for about 10 minutes until tender; let it rest before slicing in half.
  2. Once the spaghetti squash has cooled, scoop out the flesh with a fork to create strands and place them in a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out any excess moisture for a crispy crust. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, kosher salt, Italian seasoning, and parmesan cheese. Fold in the shredded spaghetti squash until well combined.
  3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Transfer the spaghetti squash mixture to the prepared baking sheet and use your hands to press it into a 10-inch circle.
  4. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Bake the formed crust for about 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
  5. Remove the baked spaghetti squash pizza crust from the oven and let it cool for just a minute. Spread pizza sauce evenly across the surface and sprinkle a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese, followed by any additional toppings.
  6. Return the topped spaghetti squash pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  7. Once baked, let the spaghetti squash pizza sit for about 5 minutes before slicing into wedges.

Notes

Cool the squash completely before handling to prevent burns and achieve a better texture. Remove as much moisture as possible for a crispier crust. Experiment with different toppings to personalize your pizza.
