Ingredients

Serves: 1
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 15–20 minutes

Base Ingredients:

· 1 large egg
· ¼ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
· 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
· 2 tablespoons almond flour or coconut flour
· ¼ teaspoon baking powder
· ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
· ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
· Pinch of salt

Toppings (customize to taste):

· ¼ cup sugar-free pizza sauce or marinara
· ¼ cup shredded mozzarella (for topping)
· 8–10 slices pepperoni
· 2–3 sliced mushrooms
· 2 tablespoons diced bell peppers
· Other ideas: cooked Italian sausage, olives, onions, spinach, etc.

Instructions

  1. Preheat & Prep: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a small oven-safe bowl or ramekin (about 10–12 oz size).
  2. Make the Base: In a small bowl, whisk the egg. Add mozzarella, Parmesan, almond flour, baking powder, oregano, garlic powder, and salt. Mix until well combined.
  3. Form the Crust: Press the mixture into the bottom of the greased bowl to form an even layer.
  4. Bake the Base: Bake for 8–10 minutes, until set and lightly golden.
  5. Add Toppings: Remove from oven. Spread pizza sauce over the baked base. Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella and arrange your chosen toppings.
  6. Bake Again: Return to oven for 5–8 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Serve: Let cool for 2–3 minutes before eating directly from the bowl (it’s hot!). Garnish with fresh basil or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes if desired.
