Carbquik Pizza Dough Ingredients
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, 1 ounce (the kind in a can)
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup CarbQuik Low Carb Baking Mix
- 1/2 cup almond flour, 2 ounces
- 4 to 8 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
Toppings
- 1/4 cup pizza sauce
- 8 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 4 ounce can mushrooms
- 2 ounces pepperoni slices
- 1/4 pound Italian sausage, browned and crumbled
- 1/4 cup green pepper, diced
- Italian seasoning, to taste
- Garlic powder, to taste
Instructions
- Cut a circle of parchment paper to fit a 14 to 15-inch round pizza pan.
- Spray the pizza pan with cooking spray to help the parchment stay put.
- Place the parchment paper in the pan.
- Whisk cream cheese and eggs until smooth.
- Add remaining Carbquik Pizza Dough Ingredients except mozzarella until well combined.
- Stir in mozzarella.
- Drop the dough by large spoonfuls all over parchment-lined pan.
- Cover with two sheets of plastic wrap that have been crossed so that the entire surface is covered.
- With rolling pin, roll dough to the edges of the pan making it an even thickness.
- Remove plastic wrap.
- With a rubber spatula, push the dough up and away from the edges of the pan by ¼-½ inch.
- If the dough goes all the way to the edges, it can bubble over in the oven or go under the parchment paper.
- Bake at 400° F for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown.
- Let stand 10 minutes or chill several hours (can probably be wrapped and frozen at this point, but I haven’t tried it).
- Add toppings and bake at 375 degrees about 15-20 minutes longer or until toppings are bubbly and slightly browned.
- Serve piping hot.
