This high-protein, low-carb pizza crust is sturdy, flavorful, and totally satisfying—perfect for your favorite pizza toppings without the guilt!
Optional pizza base seasonings
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.
- 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.
