INGREDIENTS

  • Dough

    • 2 teaspoons yeast
    • 2 tablespoons warm water
    • 🧀 1 1/2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese (melted)
    • 🥚 1 large egg, lightly beaten
    • 1 cup almond flour
    • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
    • 🧂 1/8 teaspoon salt

  • Toppings

    • 1/4 cup no-sugar-added pizza sauce
    • 2 ounces sliced pepperoni
    • 1 pinch red pepper flakes to taste (optional)
    • 🧀 1 1/2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese (for topping)

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Dissolve yeast in warm water in a small cup and set aside.

2

Place 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese into a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 90 seconds, stirring every 30 seconds, until completely melted. Stir in the yeast mixture and beaten egg.

3

Gradually mix in almond flour, xanthan gum, and salt. Reheat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds if needed to soften the cheese. Knead by hand for about 2 minutes until a uniform dough forms.

4

Press the dough into a thin crust, about 11-12 inches in diameter, on the prepared baking sheet.

5

Bake the crust in the preheated oven until lightly browned, approximately 10 minutes.

6

Spread pizza sauce evenly over the baked crust. Add the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese and arrange pepperoni slices on top.

7

Return the pizza to the oven and bake until the cheese melts, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes if desired. Cut into six slices and serve.
