Instructions
Low Carb Pizza Crust
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Using a large mixing bowl add the 4 ounces of shredded mozzarella, 4 ounces of shredded marbled cheese, eggs, garlic powder, dry oregano and salt. Mix together with a rubber spatula until well combined.
- Transfer the crust mixture onto a parchment lined 10" pizza tray or baking sheet. Place another piece of parchment on top and use a tumbler or rolling pin to roll out the pizza crust until it is evenly spread out in the pan. Gently remove the top layer of parchment paper from the pizza crust.
- Bake the pizza crust in the oven at 350°F for 15 minutes.
- Once crust is baked, remove cooked pizza crust from the oven and place a layer of parchment paper on top and gently flip the pizza, then slide back onto the pizza pan. See video.
Toppings
- Top the pizza and bake in the oven at 350°F for 15 minutes and then another 5 minutes on broil if needed to get the toppings crispier.

Notes
Top Tip: Allow the crust to cool and firm up and you will be able to hold a slice like a traditional pizza.
Tip: if you prefer a crispier crust increase the initial baking time to 20 minutes.
