Keto Cheese Crust Pizza
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 ounce of cream cheese
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon of Italian seasoning
- 1/4 cup of almond flour
- 1/4 cup of sugar-free pizza sauce
- 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese (for topping)
- Your choice of pizza toppings (e.g. pepperoni, bell peppers, onions)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave for 1 minute, then stir. Microwave for an additional 30 seconds or until fully melted and combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and Italian seasoning. Add the almond flour and mix well.
- Combine the cheese mixture with the egg mixture and knead until a dough forms.
- Place the dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet and spread it out into a thin, round crust. Use a fork to poke holes in the crust to prevent bubbling.
- Bake the crust for 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Spread the sugar-free pizza sauce over the crust, leaving a small border for the crust. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then add your choice of pizza toppings.
- Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes, then slice and enjoy!
