This is a game changer for those of use that ABSOLUTELY LOVE PIZZA annnnnnd are following a low carb life style.

 

We have tried the gamut of various “healthy” pizza crusts and this is by far the best. You may be a little shocked but the base of this is cheese. In reality you will be eating cheese on your cheese. How amazing is that?!

 

We have tweaked and tweaked and found a few tricks that help the texture.

 

Ingredients:

Parchment Paper and cookie sheet

Butter roughly 1 tablespoon

3 cups shredded Mozzarella

1 cup almond flour

4 oz cream cheese

2 eggs

Pizza seasonings to taste- I used oregano, thyme, and garlic. This is what I had on hand and eyeballed the amounts.

Preheat your oven to 425

Line your cookie sheet with parchment paper (this is important!) and drop the butter on the sheet to melt. Pop this in the oven to warm while you prepare the dough.

 

In a microwave safe bowl combine the mozzarella and cream cheese-this works best if the cream cheese is roughly cubed. Microwave these two for a minute, stir, 30 seconds, and stir again. If its really stringy or looks not melty enough you can keep heating in 20 or 30 seconds increments.

 

Once your cheese mixture resembles dough, add in the egg and almond four. Mix  everything together.

At this point the butter should be melted on the parchment paper. Remove the cookie sheet from the oven.

 

Spread the dough on the cookie sheet using wet hands or even the now melted butter if its not too hot! Try to spread the dough across the entire sheet-it will be fairly thin.

 

Sprinkle your seasonings on top and dock (poke holes) with a fork all over the dough.

 

Bake for roughly 8-10 minutes and check for any bubbles that may require additional poking. In about 12-15 minutes your crust will be ready once it begins browning on top.

 

 

Once the crust is done go crazy with toppings and combinations. But remember you will only have it back in the oven long enough to heat and melt the cheese. Make sure any meat products are fully cooked prior to adding them to the pie.

Pop your now fully topped pizza back in the oven and give it just a few minutes to melt and meld everything together.

 

 

This pizza is so simple, delicious, and has a great texture which is helped by the melted butter. We have mixed up the topping in all sorts of variations including BBQ chicken, meat lovers, and most recently I cut out all the topping to make Rosemary Cheese bread!

 

Needless to say- I buy my mozzarella in bulk at this point.
