Thin Crust Almond Flouir Pizza Crust (Lower Carb)

Trying another version of an almonf flour pizza crust.   

Ingredients:

• 8 ounces sourdough starter
• 2 teaspoons yeast
• 1 egg 
• 2 tablespoons olive oil 
• 2 cups (8 ounces) almond flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/32 teaspoon onion powder

   

Instructions:

1. Start to preheat oven to 175, shut off after 2 minutes or os
2. Mix yeast and sourdough starter together in mixer bowl, then gather other ingredients
3. Beat egg and olive oil together, add to starter
4. Add in almond flour, baking soda, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder
5. Knead with stand mixer for 5 minutes or so until well combined. (Will kind of feel like Playdough)
6. Grease two sheets of parchment paper with cooking spray
7. Place dough on greased paper, flattten somewhat, top with greased paper
8. Use a small rolling pin to roll out flat in about a 14" circle
9. Remove top parchment paper, and smooth out edges making a very small rim
10. Let dough 'proof' for 15 minutes in the slightly wamed oven. The dough should be a little puffy - but it won't rise much since it is mostly almond flour.
11. Remove dough from oven, preheat oven to 400 degrees for about 15 minutes 
12. Pee-bake crust for about 8 to 10 minutes until golden.
13. Top lightly with sauce cheese, pre-cooked veggies, cooked sausage, and pepperoni
14. Bake for another 5 min

 

Carole's Notes:

I liked the pizza - the toppings were good. The crust was flat and crispy - I did reduce heat in directions. The crust was ok - actual pizza dough is better.
