Golden Crispy 2-Ingredient Cottage Cheese Pizza Crust (Low-Carb & Irresistible!)
If you’re looking for a simple, healthy, and surprisingly delicious pizza base, this 2-ingredient cottage cheese crust is a game-changer. It bakes up golden on the outside, soft on the inside, and holds your favorite toppings beautifully—all without traditional flour!
Ingredients:
1 cup cottage cheese
1 cup almond flour
Instructions:
Preheat the oven
Set your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Blend the cottage cheese
For a smoother texture, blend the cottage cheese until creamy.
Mix the dough
In a bowl, combine the blended cottage cheese with almond flour. Stir until a soft dough forms. If it feels too sticky, add a little more almond flour (1–2 tablespoons).
Shape the crust
Transfer the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten it into a round or oval pizza shape, about 0.5 cm thick.
Pre-bake
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the crust is firm and lightly golden.
Add toppings
Remove from the oven and add your favorite toppings—tomato sauce, cheese, veggies, or meats.
Final bake
Return to the oven and bake for another 8–10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Tips for the Best Crust:
For extra crispiness, bake the crust a few minutes longer before adding toppings.
Use full-fat cottage cheese for better flavor and texture.
Add a pinch of salt, garlic powder, or Italian herbs to the dough for extra taste.
Serving Ideas:
Top with classic mozzarella and basil, or try something different like goat cheese, spinach, and sun-dried tomatoes. This crust is versatile and works with almost any topping combo!
Enjoy a guilt-free pizza night that’s quick, satisfying, and packed with flavor
