Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.75 pounds Ground sausage
• 0.5 cups Low-carb pizza sauce
• 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese (for topping)
• 0.25 cups Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
• 0.25 teaspoons Red pepper flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese and 2 tablespoons of cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, and microwave for an additional 30 seconds until the mixture is fully melted and smooth.

Step 3

Add the almond flour, egg, Italian seasoning, and salt to the cheese mixture. Mix well until a dough forms. Knead with your hands if necessary to ensure all ingredients are fully combined.

Step 4

Place the dough on the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet and roll it out into a thin circle or rectangle, approximately 1/4 inch thick.

Step 5

Use a fork to prick holes all over the dough to prevent bubbling, then bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes, or until golden brown.

Step 6

While the crust is baking, cook the ground sausage in a skillet over medium heat until fully browned, breaking it into small crumbles. Drain any excess grease and set aside.

Step 7

Remove the crust from the oven and spread the low-carb pizza sauce evenly over the surface.

Step 8

Sprinkle the cooked sausage over the sauce, followed by 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese. If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes on top.

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

Allow the pizza to cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
