Description
Heart-Shaped Cheesy Delight Pizza with Fresh Toppings
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 oz cream cheese
- 1 large egg
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (for topping)
- 1 cup assorted fresh toppings (e.g., pepperoni, bell peppers, olives, mushrooms, spinach)
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, mix together the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese. Heat in the microwave for 1 minute, stir well, then heat for another 30 seconds until the mixture is fully melted and creamy.
- In another bowl, combine the egg, almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Once blended, add the melted cheese mixture and stir until a cohesive dough forms.
- Place the dough onto a sheet of parchment paper and cover it with another sheet. Use a rolling pin to shape the dough into a heart, aiming for a thickness of about ¼ inch.
- Peel off the top layer of parchment and carefully transfer the heart-shaped dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the crust turns a lovely golden brown.
- After baking, take the crust out and evenly spread the pizza sauce over the surface. Top with shredded mozzarella and your favorite fresh ingredients. Finish with a sprinkle of Italian seasoning.
- Pop the pizza back into the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
- Allow the pizza to cool for a few moments before slicing into pieces and serving.
Notes
- For an extra kick, consider adding jalapeño slices or a dash of red pepper flakes before the final bake.
- For a vegetarian option, pile on a variety of vibrant vegetables like zucchini, artichokes, and cherry tomatoes.
