Ingredients

• 1.5 cups almond flour
• 2 cups mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons cream cheese
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheeses are melted and easy to mix. Stir together until smooth.

Step 3

In another bowl, mix together the almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, dried oregano, and salt.

Step 4

Add the melted cheese mixture and egg into the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly until you have a uniform dough. You may need to knead with your hands if it's difficult to combine with a spoon.

Step 5

Place the dough on the prepared baking sheet. Use your hands or a rolling pin to flatten the dough into your desired pizza shape, about 1/4-inch thick. Drizzle the olive oil over the top and use your fingers to gently spread it across the surface.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and add your preferred keto-friendly pizza toppings. Return to the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until your toppings are cooked and cheese is bubbly.

Step 8

Allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
