Ingredients

  • 1 cup - whole milk cottage cheese
  • 1 - egg
  • 2 - egg whites
  • ¼ cup - all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon - Italian seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon - garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon - salt
  • ½ cup - pizza sauce
  • ⅔ cup - mozzarella cheese
  • 12 slices - turkey pepperoni

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a baking sheet or pizza pan with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, mix the cottage cheese, egg, egg whites, flour, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder with a spoon until well combined.
  3. Pour the cottage cheese mixture onto the greased parchment and spread into a 10-inch circle.
  4. Bake for 30 minutes, then carefully flip the crust using a large spatula. Return to the oven and bake for another 10 minutes.
  5. Let the crust cool for 5 minutes on the pan before topping. This helps it firm up and crisp.
  6. Spread pizza sauce over the cooled crust. Top with mozzarella and pepperoni. Bake for 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Slice and serve.
