INGREDIENT NOTES:
ITALIAN SEASONING:
Italian seasoning includes a regular herbal flavor in this pizza crust. We can swap them with fresh herbs and homemade seasoning.
COTTAGE CHEESE:
Cottage cheese delivers a moisture content and protein. You can substitute it with mascarpone, Greek cream cheese, or ricotta cheese.
ALMOND FLOUR:
This ingredient gives a nutty taste and makes a firm crust. We can alternate it with a little quantity of coconut or sunflower seed flour.
EGGS:
Eggs are the main component to combine all the ingredients to create a crust. You can replace them with a mixture of shredded mozzarella or cream cheese.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Warm the empty oven to 190 degrees F.
Use parchment to cover the pizza pan.
Whisk the eggs & cottage cheese in a bowl till properly stirred.
Include the mixture in a blender and then blend it till a smooth texture is formed.
Mix in the Italian seasoning till they are uniformly mixed.
Spread the batter on parchment paper.
Equally distribute it with a spatula to make a round pizza shape.
Bake for eighteen minutes till the middle is firm & all the corners are brown.
Cool it lightly to set the crust and get a crispy texture.
Include toppings, keto pizza sauce, or cheese.
Then bake it again for an extra seven minutes till the cheese properly melts.
TIPS:
We have to pre-bake the crust so it remains crisp after adding the topping.
Bake the crust for extra minutes to make a crispier texture.
Equally distribute the batter, so the thin areas will not burn.
Utilize the fully blended cottage cheese to create an even and smooth crust texture.
We use parchment paper to avoid sticking.
