Preheat the oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1.5 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese and 2 tablespoons of cream cheese. Microwave for about 1 minute, stirring every 30 seconds, until the cheese is melted and smooth.
Stir in 3/4 cup of almond flour, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning, and 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder. Mix until a dough forms. It may be sticky; you can slightly wet your hands with water or oil to handle it better.
Transfer the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Place another piece of parchment paper on top of the dough and use a rolling pin to roll it out into a thin circle, roughly 10-12 inches in diameter.
Remove the top parchment paper and poke the dough several times with a fork to prevent bubbling.
Bake the crust for about 8-10 minutes or until lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and spread 1/4 cup of low-carb pizza sauce evenly over the baked crust.
Top with 1/2 cup of pepperoni slices and 1/2 cup of cooked, crumbled sausage.
Sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese and 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese over the toppings.
Drizzle with 1 teaspoon of olive oil and add a pinch of red pepper flakes for added heat.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and allow it to cool for a couple of minutes.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving. Enjoy your low-carb pepperoni sausage pizza!
