Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, baking powder, and salt. Stir to mix well.
Add the egg, olive oil, and warm water to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky.
Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet. Using your hands, press the dough into a round pizza crust about 1/4 inch thick.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until it is lightly golden and set.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the low carb tomato sauce evenly over the crust.
Top with shredded mozzarella cheese, cherry tomato halves, and prosciutto slices.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and is bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves.
Slice and serve the pizza warm.
