Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 2 cups of mozzarella cheese and 2 tablespoons of cream cheese. Microwave for about 1 minute, or until the cheese is melted and smooth when stirred.
Add 1.5 cups of almond flour, 1 large egg, 0.5 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt to the melted cheese. Mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough for a minute to ensure all ingredients are well incorporated.
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Using a rolling pin, roll it out to your desired thickness, typically about 1/4 inch thick.
Transfer the rolled-out dough to the lined baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 8 minutes, or until it starts to turn golden brown.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread 0.5 cup of sugar-free pizza sauce evenly over the crust.
Top with 4 ounces of thinly sliced ham and sprinkle 0.25 cup of grated Parmesan cheese and the remaining shredded mozzarella, if desired.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, then slice.
Optionally, garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
