Several of you emailed me asking for this almond flour pizza crust recipe since I posted it as part of My Personal Food Log last week. I really hope you enjoy it as much as I do. It is so fabulous, and I am so delighted that I am not missing wheat crust pizza in the slightest with this recipe in my back pocket (I am such a huge pizza lover).

This almond flour pizza is so very filling .. I can only eat 1/4 of it at one meal. It’s hard to believe, but this recipe is 4 adult servings! If I made this same recipe using wheat flour, I assure you I could eat the entire pizza myself in one sitting.

Pizza crust made with almond flour is so much more filling than wheat flour, though, so it will take you by surprise how much less you actually eat.

It tastes so delicious and positively gourmet!

Author Sarah Pope MGA

Ingredients

1.5 cups almond flour finely ground, preferably fresh
2 eggs
3 Tbl expeller pressed coconut oil melted
1/3 cup parmesan cheese shredded
1/2 tsp dried oregano preferably organic
1/2 tsp onion powder preferably organic
1/2 tsp dried basil preferably organic
2 cloves garlic minced, preferably organic
1/4 tsp sea salt

Instructions

Beat eggs slightly with Parmesan cheese and coconut oil. Add herbs and flour and mix until well blended dough.
Form 2 small pizzas on a large pizza pan covered in unbleached parchment paper. Place another piece of parchment paper on top so that the dough doesn't stick to your hands and press out dough until you have 2 thin pizza crusts about 8" across.
Bake at 425 F/218 C for 10 minutes or until crusts are slightly browned on the edges. Note: this grain free, almond flour pizza crust does not expand while baking.
Remove from oven. Cool slightly. Add homemade pizza sauce, toppings, and cheese and bake for another 10 minutes or until cheese well melted.

Recipe Notes

Feel free to substitute fresh basil and oregano for the dried. If using fresh herbs, use 1.5 teaspoons each.
