Directions
Gently heat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a microwave-safe bowl, mix together the mozzarella, Cheddar, Parmesan, and cream cheese. Pop it in the microwave for about a minute until everything’s melted and gooey. Take it out and stir in the almond flour, egg, garlic, and parsley until it comes together into a smooth dough. Press the dough onto a baking sheet, spreading it out evenly, then use a fork to poke some holes all over the top. Bake it in the oven for around 10 minutes until it’s set. Once it’s done, take it out and let it cool for about 20 minutes before adding your favorite toppings.
Serving Suggestions
This crust pairs perfectly with classic pizza toppings like tomato sauce, fresh basil, and extra mozzarella. You can also try it with roasted vegetables or spicy sausage for a flavorful twist. Serve with a side salad for a complete meal.
Leftover Care Tips
Store any leftover crust wrapped tightly in plastic wrap or in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the cooked crust for up to a month; just thaw and reheat before adding toppings.
