Ingredients:

For the Crust:

• 2 cups almond flour
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 2 large eggs

For the Toppings:

• 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 cup low-carb marinara sauce
• 1/2 cup sliced pepperoni
• 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers
• 1/4 cup sliced black olives
• 1/4 cup sliced mushrooms

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch (23 cm) round pie or cake pan.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
3. Melt the unsalted butter in a microwave or on the stovetop, and then stir it into the dry mixture. Add the eggs and mix everything thoroughly until it forms a dough.
4. Press the dough into the greased pan, spreading it evenly across the bottom and up the sides to form a crust. To achieve this, you can either use your hands or the back of a spoon.
5. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes or until it’s lightly golden. Remove it from the oven.
6. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the baked crust.
7. Pour the low-carb marinara sauce over the cheese layer and spread it out evenly.
8. Now, it’s time to add your favorite toppings. You can use sliced pepperoni, sliced bell peppers, sliced black olives, and sliced mushrooms. Be creative and add your preferred keto-friendly toppings.
9. Top the pizza with the remaining 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese.
10. Place the pizza back in the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
11. Remove the deep dish pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
