Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup cottage cheese full-fat or low-fat
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup almond flour or coconut flour
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet or pizza pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it with cooking spray.
  2. In a blender or food processor, combine cottage cheese, eggs, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, almond flour, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and well combined, about 30 seconds.
  3. Pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it into a circle or rectangle about 1/4 inch thick, using a spatula to create an even layer.
  4. Bake the crust for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set and firm to the touch.
  5. Remove the crust from the oven and add your favorite pizza sauce, cheese, and toppings.
  6. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Let the pizza cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing. Cut into wedges and serve immediately.

Notes

For a crispier crust, bake the pre-baked crust for an extra 3-5 minutes before adding toppings. Make sure to blend the cottage cheese mixture until completely smooth to avoid lumps in your crust. This crust works best when eaten fresh, but leftovers can be reheated in the oven at 350 degrees for 5-7 minutes to restore crispiness.
