No Flour Crust

  • ½ cup cottage cheese

  • 1-2 medium-sized eggs (see notes below)
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried or fresh oregano

Crust With Flour

  • ½ cup cottage cheese
  • 4 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • ½ tsp salt

Toppings

  • ¾ cup pizza sauce
  • ½ cup grated mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  • For the no-flour crust: In a bowl, whisk together cottage cheese, mozzarella, eggs, salt, and oregano until well combined.
    For the flour-based crust: In a bowl, mix cottage cheese, flour, eggs, oregano, and salt to a smooth batter.
  • Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking tray and bake for 20 -25 minutes, or until set.
  • Let the pizza crust cool for 5-10 minutes then flip it.
  • Spread pizza sauce, sprinkle grated mozzarella cheese, and add any toppings of choice on top.
  • Bake for another 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted to your liking.
  • Once done, remove from the oven, slice and serve.

Notes

  • You can make the no-flour crust with either one or two eggs, depending on your preference. The crust will still hold its shape.
  • Nutritional information is based on the no-flour crust (single serving) and is an estimate, calculated using tools we use. Actual values may vary depending on the type and amount of pizza toppings used.
Other cheeses you can use:-
I used grated mozzarella cheese, but these other cheeses are also great for topping your pizza so feel free to use them if you like.
  • Provolone.
  • Cheddar.
  • Parmesan – use it as a topping after baking.
  • Gouda.
