Description

Imagine sinking your teeth into a warm, satisfying pizza crust that doesn't compromise your dietary goals. This ingenious dough, celebrated for its remarkably low carbohydrate content, offers a delightful alternative to traditional wheat-based recipes and even cauliflower crusts. Its beauty lies in its simplicity and adaptability, making it a culinary chameleon in your kitchen.

Picture it transformed into a crispy pizza base, a savory stuffed bread, or even delectable, cheesy breadsticks. The foundation of this unique dough rests on the richness of dairy, lending a subtle tang and a wonderfully pliable texture. The result is a dough that's surprisingly easy to handle, yielding a final product with a satisfyingly crisp exterior and a soft, chewy interior.

Its flavor is mild, allowing the toppings and fillings to truly shine, creating a harmonious balance of taste and texture in every bite. Working with this dough is a breeze, even for novice bakers. For a smooth and effortless rolling experience, simply place the dough between sheets of parchment paper.

A light spritz of cooking spray on your hands will prevent any unwanted stickiness, ensuring a frustration-free process. The dough's forgiving nature makes it a joy to experiment with, whether you're crafting individual pizzas, hearty calzones, or creative stuffed pockets. One of the greatest advantages of this dough is its make-ahead convenience.

Any unused portion can be stored in the refrigerator, ready to be transformed into your next culinary creation. Chilling the dough firms it up, making it even easier to roll and shape. However, be mindful that warmth softens the dough, potentially making it a bit more challenging to work with.

With a little planning and preparation, you can have a batch of this versatile dough on hand, ready to elevate your meals with its unique flavor and texture. Whether you're looking to reduce your carbohydrate intake or simply seeking a delicious and satisfying alternative to traditional dough, this recipe is sure to become a staple in your kitchen.

Instructions

    1.
    Combine the almond flour, baking powder, salt, and oregano together in a bowl. Make sure any lumps are broken up, and set it aside.
    2.
    Combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat the cheeses for a total of 60 seconds in 20-second intervals, stirring between each one. Mix the egg into the cheese mixture vigorously. The mixture will separate first and then come together.
    3.
    Finally, stir the dry ingredients into your wet ingredients. The final dough will be sticky and pasty. Spoon the dough into plastic wrap, and use the spoon to flatten the dough into a disk for quick setting. Give the top of a dough a light sprinkle of almond flour before wrapping and putting it in the fridge.
    4.
    Refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes before using. You may freeze the dough for about 10 minutes before using to make it even easier to handle.
