Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 2 cups shredded mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave for 1 minute, stir, then microwave another 30 seconds until melted and combined.
  3. Stir in the almond flour, egg, Italian herbs, garlic powder, and salt. Mix until a dough forms. If sticky, knead with wet hands or between parchment sheets.
  4. Place dough on the prepared baking sheet. Flatten into a 10-12 inch round crust, about 1/4 inch thick.
  5. Bake crust for 8-10 minutes until golden and slightly firm.
  6. Remove from oven. Spread tomato sauce evenly over crust. Top with 1 cup mozzarella, pepperoni, olives, and fresh basil if using.
  7. Return pizza to oven and bake for another 6-8 minutes, until cheese is bubbly and starting to brown.
  8. Cool 3 minutes, slice, and serve hot.
