Ingredients

3/4 cup almond flour
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese low-moisture pre-shredded cheese
2 tablespoon plain yogurt
1 large egg

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F.
Add the almond flour to a large mixing bowl and set aside. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded cheese and yogurt and microwave until the cheese has melted. Whisk well until combined.
Add the melted cheese mixture to the almond flour. Add the egg and mix well until combined. Using your hands, knead the dough until smooth. Form a ball of dough.
Place a piece of parchment on a kitchen surface. Place the ball of dough on the parchment paper and place another piece of parchment paper on top. Roll out the dough into a circular shape, around 10 to 12 inches in length.
Transfer the pizza crust onto a baking sheet. Top with toppings of choice and bake for 10-12 minutes, until the toppings have cooked and cheese has melted.

Notes

Cheese. Low-moisture mozzarella cheese works best for a pliable and mild flavored dough. I recommend the pre-shredded kind versus shredded your own cheese.
Flour. Only use almond flour, please. It will not work with coconut flour or keto flour blends.
Storage. Leftovers keep well in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can freeze either the unbaked dough or slices of the cooked pizza.
