- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 cup tomato sauce (sugar-free)

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1.5 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese and 2 tablespoons of cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, and microwave for another 30 seconds until melted and smooth.
Add 1.5 cups of almond flour, 1 beaten egg, and 0.5 teaspoons of salt to the melted cheese. Mix well until a dough forms. You may need to knead it with your hands.
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out into a 12-inch circle.
Transfer the dough onto the lined baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes until lightly golden.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread 0.5 cup of sugar-free tomato sauce evenly over the crust.
Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of dried oregano over the tomato sauce.
Distribute 6 drained anchovy fillets and 0.25 cup of sliced black olives evenly over the pizza.
Top with the remaining 0.5 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 5 to 7 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before garnishing with 0.25 cup of fresh basil leaves and 0.5 teaspoons of red pepper flakes.
Slice and serve hot, enjoying the flavors of this delicious keto-friendly classic anchovy pizza.
