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
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Marinara sauce (sugar-free)
- 0.5 cup Pepperoni slices
- 0.5 cup Bell pepper, sliced
- 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil for greasing
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it lightly with olive oil.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, then microwave for another 30 seconds until the cheese is fully melted.
Quickly stir in the almond flour, egg, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt to the melted cheese mixture. Mix until a dough forms. You may need to knead it by hand if it's too thick to stir.
Place the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, and flatten into a round shape about 1/4-inch thick using your hands or a rolling pin. Ensure it's even for consistent cooking.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until it turns golden brown and feels firm to the touch.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the marinara sauce evenly over the surface.
Top the pizza with pepperoni slices, sliced bell pepper, fresh basil leaves, and grated Parmesan cheese.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until the toppings are hot and the cheese is bubbly.
Remove from the oven, let it cool slightly, slice, and serve immediately.
