Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Tomato sauce
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 8 Fresh basil leaves
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or prepare a pizza stone if available.
In a microwave-safe bowl, mix together the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 30 seconds, stir, then microwave for another 30 seconds until melted and easy to mix together.
Add the almond flour, egg, baking powder, garlic powder, dried oregano, and salt to the melted cheese mixture. Stir until a dough forms.
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll out into a circle about 10 inches in diameter and 1/4 inch thick.
Transfer the rolled-out dough onto the prepared baking sheet or pizza stone. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden.
In a small bowl, mix the tomato sauce and tomato paste together until smooth.
Once the crust is lightly golden, remove it from the oven and spread the tomato sauce mixture evenly over the crust.
Scatter fresh basil leaves over the sauce, then sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top.
Drizzle olive oil over the pizza, and sprinkle with a dash of black pepper for added flavor.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake an additional 5-7 minutes or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before slicing.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious low-carb tomato pizza!
