Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 1.5 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup marinara sauce (sugar-free)
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 20 slices pepperoni slices
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 10 leaves basil leaves, fresh
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for about 1 minute or until the cheese is completely melted.
Stir the cheese mixture and add the almond flour, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and salt. Mix well to combine.
Crack the egg into the mixture and knead the dough using your hands until it becomes homogeneous.
Place the dough between two pieces of parchment paper and roll it out into a thin, even circle about 10 inches in diameter.
Remove the top parchment paper and transfer the dough (along with the bottom parchment) onto a baking sheet.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until it begins to turn golden brown.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the marinara sauce evenly over it, leaving a small border for the crust.
Sprinkle Parmesan cheese evenly over the sauce and then arrange the pepperoni slices on top.
Brush the edges of the crust with olive oil to enhance browning.
Bake the pizza in the oven for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves, slice, and serve hot.
