Ingredients

Pizza Base

Optional pizza base seasonings

Optional pizza toppings

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet or pizza pan with parchment paper.
  • Add cottage cheese, eggs, whey protein, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and optional seasonings into a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and thick.
    1 cup cottage cheese, 2 large eggs, 2 tablespoons whey protein powder, 2 tablespoons coconut flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Pour the crust mixture (pizza dough) into two 8” pizza rounds (or one large 16” pizza) on the parchment-lined tray. Use a spatula to spread evenly.
  • Bake for 15–18 minutes or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
  • Remove from the oven, top with pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese, and pepperoni slices, then bake for another 5–8 minutes until cheese is bubbly.
    1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, 1/4 cup pizza sauce, 1/4 cup pepperoni
  • Cool for 3–5 minutes. Slice and serve with fresh basil or chili flakes if desired.

Notes

  • For best results, use full-fat cottage cheese (4% milkfat or higher).
  • Blending the cottage cheese ensures a smooth, lump-free dough.
  • Let the dough rest for a few minutes to allow the coconut flour to absorb moisture.
  • Line your pan with parchment paper for easy removal and crisp edges.
  • Don’t skip the initial crust bake before adding toppings - it helps the crust stay sturdy.
  • Store leftovers wrapped in plastic wrap or an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat in a toaster oven or air fryer for a crisp finish.
