Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet or pizza pan with parchment paper. Spray the parchment paper with oil.
  • In a blender, blend the cottage cheese, eggs, garlic powder and Italian seasoning until smooth.
  • Add the cottage cheese mixture to a large mixing bowl and stir the almond flour in until you have a smooth, thick batter.
  • Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet or pizza pan, shaping it into a circle or rectangle to your desired thickness (about ¼ inch thick).
  • Bake the crust for 25-30 minutes, or until it is firm and slightly golden around the edges.
  • Remove the crust from the oven and spread the marinara sauce evenly over it. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top.
  • Bake again for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Serve warm, optionally garnishing with extra Italian seasoning or fresh basil. Enjoy your cottage cheese pizza!

One serving is quarter of the pizza.
