Instructions

Creating Protein Pizza Crust can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
3. Combine Cheeses: In another bowl, mix the mozzarella and cream cheese until smooth, using a microwave if necessary to help them combine easily.
4. Add Eggs: Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
5. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the cheese mixture, stirring until a dough forms.
6. Shape the Crust: Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet. Using your hands or a rolling pin, shape it into a round crust about 1/4 inch thick.
7. Pre-Bake the Crust: Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
8. Add Toppings: Remove the crust from the oven and add your favorite pizza toppings.
9. Final Bake: Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
10. Cool and Slice: Allow the pizza to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.

These steps will guide you in creating this incredible crust effortlessly.
