150kcal
Ingredients
Dough Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour a low-carb alternative to regular flour
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese for the dough
- 4 oz Cream cheese softened
- 1 large Egg to bind the dough
- 2 tsp Baking powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning for flavor
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Salt to taste
Filling Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Pizza sauce low carb
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese for filling
- 1 cup Pepperoni slices or other toppings like mushrooms, olives, or bell peppers
- 1/4 cup Grated Parmesan cheese optional for topping
Method
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix the cheeses by placing the shredded mozzarella cheese and cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until everything is melted and smooth.
- Whisk together the dry ingredients: almond flour, baking powder, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt. Mix in the melted cheese mixture and egg until a cohesive dough forms.
- Roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment paper into a rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Spread the pizza sauce over the dough, leaving a border. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella and your choice of toppings.
- Roll the dough tightly from one long side to the other to form a log.
- Slice the log into 1-inch pieces and place them cut-side up on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and cheese is bubbly.
- Cool for a few minutes before serving warm with additional pizza sauce for dipping.

Notes
Ensure cream cheese is softened for easier mixing. Use a light dusting of almond flour when rolling out the dough to prevent sticking. Bake until golden brown and bubbly.
