Cottage Cheese Pizza Crust

Ingredients

• 1 cup cottage cheese
• 1 cup almond flour
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
• ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (optional)
• Your choice of toppings (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese and almond flour. If you’re using seasonings, add them now. Mix until you achieve a cohesive dough.
3. Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead it gently for about 1-2 minutes until smooth. Add more almond flour if too sticky.
4. Shape the dough into a circle or rectangle, aiming for a thickness of about ¼ inch.
5. Place the shaped dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet or pizza stone.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and firm.
7. Remove the crust from the oven and add your favorite pizza toppings.
8. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
9. Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes, slice, and enjoy!
