Traditional pizza is unlikely to be an option while dieting, but this recipe will appeal to keto dieters, low-carb and gluten-free dieters, and even cheese lovers. The pizza is incredibly cheesy and gooey, and it's just as tasty as a classic Margherita. The crust is made mostly of cheese! Shredded mozzarella is mixed with sour cream, eggs, and almond or coconut flour. The crust is baked separately, then topped with sauce and grated cheese, and baked a second time until the topping is heated through. This thin-crust pizza makes a great snack for a house party. Slice it into triangles and serve—everyone will love it!

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Sauce:
In a small bowl, combine the tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, and a large pinch of salt. Let stand at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.The sauce can be prepared the night before and left in the refrigerator.).
Place an oven rack on the lowest shelf along with a pizza stone or upside-down baking sheet and preheat the oven to 230°C.

Keto dough:
In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella and sour cream. Microwave in 1-minute intervals, stirring, until the cheese is melted; let cool slightly. Add the almond flour, eggs, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt and knead the dough with your hands (it will be slightly damp and elastic).
Grease a piece of parchment paper with olive oil. Using oiled fingers, stretch the dough onto the parchment paper into a 0.5 cm thick rectangle, making the edges slightly thicker to create a border all the way around. Place the dough on a preheated baking sheet or pizza stone and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. The dough can be baked the night before, cooled, and wrapped.
Toppings:
Remove the dough from the oven, top with sauce and mozzarella, and bake until heated through and the cheese is melted, about 5 more minutes. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes, oregano, and salt. Cut into triangles.
