Dough
Ingredients
1 1/2cupMozzarella cheese(shredded)
2tbspCream cheese(cut into cubes)
2largeEgg(beaten)
1/3 Almond flour or Coconut flour
Directions
Preheat the oven to 425F degrees and line a baking sheet or pizza pan with parchment paper.
Combine the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese in a microwavable bowl. Microwave for 90 seconds, stirring halfway through.
Stir in the beaten eggs and flour. Knead with your hands until a dough forms. Here, if you refrigerate your dough for 10 minutes it will roll out easier and not stick so much. It’s a good opportunity to prepare your toppings. I like to spray the paper with a bit of Pam.
Depending on how thinly you roll your dough you can make up to 2 personal-sized pizzas. I usually triple this recipe as we are usually 7 people. Spread the dough onto the lined baking pan. Put another piece of parchment on top and roll out your dough to about 1/4″ thick. Remove the top parchment and set aside for your next pie. Use a fork and poke holes throughout to prevent bubbling, or not. Bake until just golden brown and then add your toppings and rebake for about 10 minutes. It really depends on how much you top your pizza with. Keep an eye on it.
Above, I have shown two pizzas although we made a few more that night. A couple hints. I like to season the crust with melted butter, granulated garlic, oregano, salt and pepper. Then I spread my favorite sauce of the moment on from edge to edge almost. I’m loving Rao’s Arrabbiata pasta sauce. It’s definitely got a kick. But you can use something as simple as plain tomato sauce or tomato paste. As I’ve mentioned, have fun and find what you like.
Note: If you like fresh basil put it on after you have cooked your pizza or it will burn.. Manga!
