Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave for about 90 seconds, or until the cheese is melted and can be stirred together smoothly, stopping and stirring every 30 seconds.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg, then add the almond flour, Italian seasoning, salt, and garlic powder. Stir until well combined.
Add the melted cheese mixture to the bowl with the almond flour mixture. Use a spatula or your hands to mix until a dough forms. If too hot, let cool slightly.
Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet. Use your hands or a rolling pin to flatten the dough into a circle about 1/4 inch thick.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown.
While the crust is baking, slice the Roma tomatoes and the fresh mozzarella cheese into thin, even slices.
Remove the crust from the oven and lightly brush with olive oil.
Arrange the mozzarella slices evenly over the crust, followed by the tomato slices.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 5-6 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh basil leaves and a pinch of black pepper.
Cut into slices and serve hot. Enjoy your Keto-friendly Mozzarella and Tomato Pizza!
