Ingredients
Method
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet or pizza pan with parchment paper and lightly spray with cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese and eggs. Mix well until smooth and well combined. You can use a blender for a smoother texture if desired.
- Add the flour to the cottage cheese mixture along with salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning if using. Stir until a sticky dough forms.
- Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet. Using lightly floured hands or a spatula, spread and shape the dough into a round or rectangular pizza crust about 1/4 inch thick.
- Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set and lightly browned.
- Remove the crust from the oven and add your favorite pizza sauce, cheese, and toppings.
- Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 7-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Slice and serve hot.

Notes
For a crispier crust, bake the par-baked crust for a few extra minutes before adding toppings. You can substitute the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour or almond flour for a different texture and nutritional profile. Make sure to blend the cottage cheese well if you prefer a smoother crust without curds showing through.
