Ingredients

  • 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!
