Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C).
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave for 1 minute, then stir. Microwave for another 30 seconds or until melted and well combined.
Add almond flour, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and salt to the cheese mixture while it's still warm. Mix until it forms a dough-like consistency.
Place the dough between two pieces of parchment paper. Roll out the dough into a circular shape about 1/4-inch thick.
Transfer the rolled dough to a baking sheet, keeping the bottom parchment paper intact. Remove the top piece of parchment.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8 minutes, or until it starts to turn golden brown.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread your marinara sauce evenly over it.
Top with pepperoni slices, bell pepper slices, and black olives.
Place the pizza back into the oven for an additional 7 minutes, or until the toppings are cooked and the edges are crispy.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
