Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Tomato sauce (low-carb)
• 1 cup Fresh mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cup Pepperoni slices
• 0.25 cup Black olives, sliced
• 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet or pizza stone with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, then stir. Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals until completely melted and smooth.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, mix the almond flour, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and salt. Add the melted cheese mixture and combine thoroughly. The mixture will be sticky.

Step 4

Add the egg to the dough and mix until fully incorporated. Knead the dough by hand or with a spatula until uniform.

Step 5

Place the dough on the prepared baking sheet. With wet hands, press the dough into a circle about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 6

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until it starts to turn golden brown.

Step 7

Remove the crust from the oven and spread the low-carb tomato sauce evenly over it.

Step 8

Top with fresh mozzarella cheese, pepperoni slices, and black olives.

Step 9

Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 10

Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.

Step 11

Cut into 8 slices and enjoy your keto-friendly Italian style pizza.
