Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese and 4 tablespoons cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
Add the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt to the melted cheese mixture, then mix in the egg. Stir until a dough forms.
Lightly spray a 10-inch (25 cm) round, deep-dish pie pan with olive oil spray.
Press the dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pie pan to form the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes until slightly golden.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the marinara sauce evenly over the surface.
Top the sauce with 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, then arrange the pepperoni slices evenly over the cheese.
Sprinkle Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes on top.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow the pizza to rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious low-carb deep dish pizza!
