Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 3 large Eggs
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 cups Grated mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Tomato sauce
- 2 minced Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.25 cup Fresh basil
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a rectangular baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, and baking powder, mixing well.
Beat the eggs in a separate bowl, then add them to the flour mixture along with the olive oil and salt. Stir until a dough forms.
Place the dough on the prepared baking sheet and use your hands or a rolling pin to flatten it evenly across the sheet, forming a thin crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until it begins to turn golden around the edges.
While the crust is baking, prepare the sauce by mixing the tomato sauce with minced garlic, dried oregano, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the prepared tomato sauce evenly over the top.
Sprinkle the grated mozzarella cheese over the sauce, ensuring the crust is well-covered.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and top with fresh basil leaves, a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese, and optional crushed red pepper flakes.
Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes before slicing into squares. Serve warm and enjoy your low carb Grandma pizza!
