Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, grated parmesan cheese, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt.
Add the egg and water to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and press it out into a circular shape about 1/4-inch thick.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes until it is lightly golden.
Remove the crust from the oven and brush the surface with olive oil.
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a small border around the edge.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the tomato sauce.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and garnish with fresh basil leaves.
Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes before slicing into 4 pieces and serving.
