Keto Sheet Pan Pizza I

Ingredients:

For the crust:

• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 oz cream cheese (softened)
• 1 1/2 cups almond flour
• 1 large egg
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp salt

For the toppings:

• 1/2 cup pizza sauce (low-carb or homemade)
• 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• Toppings of your choice (pepperoni, bell peppers, mushrooms, olives, onions, etc.)

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the dough:
   • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese together. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted and smooth.
   • Once melted, add the almond flour, egg, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well until a dough forms. If it’s too sticky, you can wet your hands to help knead it.
3. Shape the crust:
   • Transfer the dough onto the prepared sheet pan. Use your hands or a rolling pin to spread it out into an even layer, shaping it into a rectangle or square.
4. Bake the crust:
   • Place the crust in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until it turns golden brown.
5. Add toppings:
   • Once the crust is baked, remove it from the oven. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the crust.
   • Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top, then add your choice of toppings.
6. Final bake:
   • Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
7. Serve: Slice and enjoy your keto-friendly pizza!

Tips:

• You can customize the toppings to suit your preferences or whatever you have on hand.
• If you want a crispier crust, you can bake it for a few extra minutes before adding the toppings.
