Easy Protein Pizza
A delicious and healthy low-carb pizza with a cottage cheese crust, packed with protein and perfect for a guilt-free meal.
Equipment
- Blender
- 9-inch round baking pans
- Parchment Paper
- Baking Sheet
Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup whey protein powder
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon pizza seasoning (or Italian seasoning)
- healthy pizza toppings (like pepperoni, shredded mozzarella, and tomato sauce)
Instructions
- Warm your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two 9-inch round baking pans with parchment paper, then give the paper a light grease.
- Toss the cottage cheese, eggs, protein powder, coconut flour, and pizza seasoning into a blender. Whiz it up until everything is super smooth.
- Pour the smooth batter equally into your prepared pans, spreading it out to the edges. Gently shake the pans to make sure the crust is even.
- Bake for about 25-30 minutes, until the crusts feel firm. Take them out and let them cool for at least 10 minutes.
- Once cooled, gently peel the crusts away from the parchment. Lightly grease a baking sheet and flip the crusts onto it, upside down.
- Now, pile on your favorite healthy pizza toppings! Pop them back into the oven for 10-12 minutes, just until the cheese is melty and bubbly.
