Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet or pizza pan with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, then stir. Microwave for an additional 30 seconds if necessary, until the mixture is fully melted and smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and salt.
Add the melted cheese mixture and the whisked egg to the dry ingredients. Mix well until a cohesive dough forms. You may need to knead it by hand if it becomes difficult to stir.
Place the dough on the prepared parchment paper. Using your hands or a rolling pin, flatten the dough into a thin, even circle or rectangle, about 1/4-inch thick.
Using a fork, poke several holes across the surface of the crust to prevent bubbling during baking.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until it turns golden brown.
Remove the crust from the oven and let it cool slightly before adding your preferred pizza toppings. Once topped, return the pizza to the oven for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until the toppings are heated through and the cheese is melted.
Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy your low-carb pizza!
