Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 100 grams ham slices
- 0.25 cup pizza sauce
- 0.25 cup parmesan cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 5 leaves fresh basil leaves
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine 1.5 cups of almond flour, 2 cups of mozzarella cheese, and 2 tablespoons of cream cheese.
Microwave the mixture on high for about 1 minute, stir, and then microwave for an additional 30 seconds until the cheese is melted.
Add 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon of dried oregano to the melted cheese mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and press it into a round pizza crust, about ¼ inch thick.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove the crust from the oven. Spread 0.25 cup of pizza sauce evenly over the crust, then sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
Add 100 grams of ham slices over the cheese layer.
Top with 0.25 cup of parmesan cheese and 0.25 teaspoon of red pepper flakes for a bit of heat.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and lightly golden.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
