Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1.5 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese and 2 tablespoons of cream cheese. Microwave for 1 minute on high, stir, and then microwave for another 30 seconds until cheese is fully melted and combined.
Add the almond flour, egg, salt, and garlic powder to the melted cheese mixture. Stir until a dough forms. If dough is sticky, chill for 10 minutes.
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll out into a thin crust, about 1/4 inch thick.
Transfer the crust (still on parchment paper) to a baking tray and bake for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the sugar-free pizza sauce over it.
Sprinkle the diced ham, pineapple chunks, thinly sliced red onion, and bell pepper over the sauce.
Top with 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Return to oven and bake for another 8-10 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden.
Remove from oven, garnish with fresh basil leaves, slice, and serve immediately.
