Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1.5 cups of mozzarella cheese and 2 tablespoons of cream cheese. Microwave on high for about 1 minute or until melted. Stir until smooth.
Add almond flour, egg, garlic powder, and oregano to the melted cheese mixture. Mix well using your hands or a spatula to form a dough.
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll it out to form a round pizza crust about 1/4 inch thick.
Transfer the crust onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown.
While the crust is baking, peel the red onion and cut it into thin slices.
In a pan over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté the onions with a pinch of salt until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
Once the crust is ready, remove it from the oven and spread the sugar-free tomato sauce evenly on top.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the tomato sauce.
Decorate the pizza with the sautéed onions and flaked tinned tuna.
Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and additional oregano if desired.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 5 minutes or until the cheese has melted and toppings are heated through.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving. Slice and enjoy your Keto Pizza Tonno e Cipolla!
