Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1.5 cups of the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for about 1 minute until both are melted and easy to mix.
Stir the melted cheeses until smooth, then add the almond flour, egg, baking powder, garlic powder, oregano, and salt. Mix well until a dough forms. Knead the dough with your hands to ensure even consistency.
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out into a circle approximately 12 inches in diameter. Remove the top sheet and transfer the bottom parchment sheet with the dough to the baking sheet.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until it begins to turn golden brown.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread an even layer of pizza sauce over it. Sprinkle the grated mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
Arrange slices of spicy salami on top of the cheese, followed by the sliced jalapeños.
Sprinkle with red pepper flakes for added heat.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, let it cool for a couple of minutes before slicing, and serve hot.
