Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

2 cups mozzarella cheese or 2 cups monterey jack cheese, shredded
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons flax seed meal (though I made it without flax and think I like it better without)
2 tablespoons coconut flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Cut 2 pieces of parchment paper out for baking sheet if you are making one large crust. For individual pizzas (this will make 4) no need for extra parchment- just flip them over with a spatula after 15 minutes of baking.
Mix cheese, eggs, flax, coconut flour, and baking powder together until a sticky wet dough is formed. Spread with a spatula or with dampened hands to ¼ inch thickness on a baking sheet lined with one piece of parchment paper.
Bake for 30 minutes in preheated oven. Halfway through the baking process, flip crust over by sliding it off the baking sheet with the parchment paper, placing the second piece on the sheet, and turning the crust over unto the new sheet and peeling the old paper off. Return to oven until done baking.
Remove from oven, slide off of parchment paper, and flip over again for cooling.
Once crust is cooled, top with sauce, pre-cooked veggies or meats, and cheese. Set crust with toppings under the broiler on high for a minute or two until cheese is melted and bubbly. Slice and serve.

Tips:

When choosing flaxseed meal, look for finely ground flaxseed meal for a smooth and even texture in your pizza crust.
Make sure to measure your ingredients accurately, as this will affect the final texture and consistency of your pizza crust.
Before baking, preheat your oven to the highest temperature possible. This will help create a crispy pizza crust.
Keep an eye on your pizza crust while it's baking. It can burn quickly, so be sure to remove it from the oven as soon as it's golden brown.
Let your pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help prevent the toppings from sliding off.

Conclusion:

This low-carb flax pizza crust is a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional pizza crust. It's easy to make and can be topped with your favorite pizza toppings. Whether you're following a low-carb diet or simply looking for a healthier pizza option, this flax pizza crust is sure to please.
