Ingredients
1 cup cottage cheese
2 large eggs
½ cup almond flour (or oat flour for non-keto version)
Optional: Pinch of salt or Italian seasoning for added flavor
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly grease with olive oil if desired.
In a blender or food processor, combine cottage cheese and eggs. Blend until smooth.
Add almond (or oat) flour and optional seasoning. Mix until fully combined.
Pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and shape into a thin, even circle or rectangle.
Bake for 20–25 minutes or until golden, set, and lightly crispy on the edges.
Let the crust cool slightly before adding your favorite toppings. Return to the oven to melt cheese or warm toppings, if needed.
Notes
Almond flour keeps this recipe keto and gluten-free; oat flour makes it great for non-keto eaters.
The crust holds up well for classic pizza toppings or can be used for flatbreads and wraps.
Bake longer for extra crispiness or broil for the last 1–2 minutes.
Store leftovers in the fridge up to 3 days or freeze crusts for later.
Great for meal prepping low-carb lunches or quick dinners.
