Ingredients
Pizza Crust Main Ingredients:
1 cup full fat cottage cheese
2 eggs (room temperature)
Optional:
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Toppings Idea:
1/2 cup pizza sauce: marinara sauce or simple tomato sauce
1/2 cup Mozzarella cheese
14 small pepperoni slices or mini pepperoni
Instructions
Blend the Ingredients: Add all pizza crust ingredients (cottage cheese, eggs, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning) into a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. This process improves the texture of the cottage cheese mixture.
Prepare the Baking Tray: Pour the mixture (pizza dough) onto a pizza tray lined with greaseproof paper or a piece of parchment paper. If using parchment paper, spray it with oil to prevent sticking.
Bake the Crust: Cook the crust in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 7-10 minutes, or until it starts to turn golden.
Add Toppings: Remove the crust from the oven and arrange your favorite pizza toppings. Spread the pizza sauce, sprinkle Mozzarella cheese, and add pepperoni slices.
Final Bake: Return the pizza to the oven and cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve and Enjoy: Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing. Enjoy your delicious, high-protein, low-carb pizza!
