kcalIngredients
- For the Crust:
1 ¾ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons cream cheese
1 large egg
¾ cup almond flour
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- For the Toppings:
½ cup sugar-free pizza sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Toppings of your choice: pepperoni, mushrooms, olives, bell peppers, or spinach
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. - Make the Crust
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave for 1 minute, stirring halfway through, until melted and combined.
Add almond flour, egg, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning to the melted cheese mixture. Stir until a dough forms.
Tip: If the dough feels too sticky, lightly grease your hands with olive oil. - Shape the Crust
Place the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Using your hands or a rolling pin, press it into a thin, even circle or rectangle. Note: Keep the crust about ¼ inch thick for the best results. - Par-Bake the Crust
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. - Add the Toppings
Spread the sugar-free pizza sauce evenly over the crust. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese on top. Add your favorite keto-friendly toppings. - Bake the Pizza
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned. - Slice & Serve
Allow the pizza to cool for a couple of minutes before slicing. Serve hot and enjoy!
