Ingredients

  • 6 oz mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 5 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

  • 1 large egg

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees

    2. Sprinkle counter with a bit of almond flour

    3. Place butter and cream cheese together in microwave for one minute. Stir, and microwave one more minute until melted (this time can vary with microwave strength).  Stir together.

    4. Add dry ingredients.

    5. Add egg and stir together until dough forms. Knead dough together, this will be sticky. 

    6. Turn the dough onto the counter (work surface) and knead.  If it seems too sticky, add a bit more almond flour. 

    7.  Roll dough out between two pieces of parchment paper.  When rolled out, transfer to a cookie sheet or pizza pan.

    8. Place in oven and bake for 15 minutes or until slightly brown. 

Recipe Notes

I separated the dough into two smaller pizzas on a cookie sheet, but can be used for one large pizza.  Add toppings and cheese of your choice and bake until cheese is melted and bubbly.  Very delicious!
