Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 1 large Egg
• 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.75 cup Fromage blanc or sour cream
• 1 medium Onion, thinly sliced
• 0.5 cup Bacon, sliced into lardons
• 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until melted and smooth.

Step 3

Add the almond flour, egg, and salt to the melted cheese mixture. Stir until it forms a dough. You may need to use your hands to fully incorporate the ingredients.

Step 4

Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out into a thin, round crust, about 10-12 inches in diameter.

Step 5

Transfer the crust on the bottom parchment paper to a baking sheet and pierce holes through it with a fork to prevent bubbling.

Step 6

Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes until it's just starting to turn golden. Remove from the oven and set aside.

Step 7

In a pan over medium heat, cook the bacon lardons until crispy. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Step 8

In the same pan, sauté the onions in the bacon fat until they are translucent and soft.

Step 9

Spread the fromage blanc or sour cream evenly over the pre-baked crust.

Step 10

Top with cooked onions, crispy bacon, nutmeg, and black pepper.

Step 11

Bake the assembled Flammenkuchen for another 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the topping is slightly bubbling.

Step 12

Allow to cool slightly, then slice and serve warm.
