Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1.5 cups Tomato sauce
- 0.5 cup Grated parmesan cheese
- 0.5 cup Pepperoni slices
- 0.25 cup Black olives, sliced
- 0.5 medium Green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a 9x13-inch baking sheet or pizza pan with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of mozzarella cheese and the cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, and then microwave for another 30 seconds until melted and smooth.
In a large mixing bowl, blend together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the melted cheese mixture and the eggs, then stir until a dough forms.
Transfer the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Lightly grease your hands with olive oil and press the dough evenly into the pan to form a thick crust.
Prick the crust with a fork several times to prevent bubbling. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the tomato sauce evenly over it.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese and the parmesan cheese over the sauce.
Top with pepperoni slices, black olives, and green bell pepper slices, or any additional toppings of your choice.
Sprinkle the dried oregano and garlic powder over the toppings.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes before slicing into squares and serving. Enjoy your Keto Sicilian Pizza!
