I made the best low-carb pizza crust tonight. If I had known how good it was going to be I would have taken pictures! (maybe I'll make another one soon and add a pic or two to this thread)
I tried several "low carb" pizza crusts (a couple with cauliflower and another almond flour recipe) during my P3 and they were always sub-sub-sub par. This was by FAR the best! This was actually similar to some low carb crackers I made and did like and I think this dough would make very nice crackers as well![]()
Pizza Crust Ingredients:
1 C Almond Flour
1/2 C Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/3 C flax meal
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/3 C Sour Cream
1 Egg
Preheat oven to 350.
Mix almond flour, parmesan, flax meal, garlic and baking soda with a fork to combine. Add egg and sour cream and mix together to form thick pasty "dough". Spread mixture out about 1/4" thick, (mine was rectangular shape about 9x13") on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. This is very sticky and somewhat of a challenge to get an even thin spread. But coating my hands with olive oil and patting it down worked pretty well to get most of it into the general target location, but to get a nice thin even spread I used a 2nd sheet of parchment paper and rolling pin to "roll" it out. Be sure to coat second sheet of paper lightly with oil, either by hand or with a non-stick spray.
To prevent excess bubbling of crust, prick several small holes across the crust, then bake crust only in 350 oven for about 30 minutes, or until whole crust is golden and toasty. Remove from the oven and top with favorite P3 toppings, like no-sugar added pasta sauce, cheese, veggies and P3 suitable meats. Return pizza creation to oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes until toppings are hot, melty and delicious!
