Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 2 cups Mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
- 10 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine 1.5 cups of almond flour, 2 cups of mozzarella cheese, and 2 tablespoons of cream cheese.
Microwave the mixture on high for about 1 minute, stir, and then microwave for another 30 seconds until the mixture becomes smooth and stretchy.
Add 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt to the cheese mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out into a thin, even circle, about 12 inches in diameter.
Transfer the rolled dough onto the prepared baking sheet and pierce it with a fork to prevent bubbling.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown.
While the crust is baking, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a small pan over medium heat.
Add 2 minced garlic cloves to the pan and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
Remove the crust from the oven and brush the garlic olive oil evenly over the top.
Sprinkle 0.25 cup of grated Parmesan cheese over the pizza.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Decorate the pizza with fresh basil leaves before serving.
Cut into slices and enjoy your low-carb garlic pizza!
