Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 1.5 cups mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- 1 unit large egg
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup marinara sauce (sugar-free)
- 4 slices prosciutto
- 0.5 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup fresh arugula
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and 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 one minute, stir, and heat for another 30 seconds until the mixture is completely melted and combined.
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, baking powder, and garlic powder. Whisk an egg and add it to the dry ingredients along with the melted cheese mixture. Mix well until a dough forms.
Transfer the dough onto the prepared parchment paper. Cover the dough with another piece of parchment paper and roll out with a rolling pin into a 12-inch circle.
Remove the top parchment paper and slide the bottom parchment with the crust onto the baking sheet. Prick the crust all over with a fork to prevent bubbling.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8 minutes, until lightly golden.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread 0.5 cup of sugar-free marinara sauce evenly over the crust.
Top with slices of prosciutto and sprinkle with shredded Parmesan cheese.
Return to the oven and bake for another 4-5 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and top with fresh arugula. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with red pepper flakes before serving.
Slice and enjoy your delicious Keto Prosciutto and Arugula Pizza!
