I am not doing low carb right now, but I thought this would be nice for those that are. I made this a while back and it's really good. I was skeptical, but it really is pretty amazing.
Ingredients:
For the crust: For the pizza:
1 (8 oz.) package of full fat cream cheese (room temp.)
2 eggs
Freshly ground black pepper
Garlic powder
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

1/2 cup jarred marinara sauce*
A pinch of cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, or more if desired
Sauteed pepperoni
Garlic powder

*Finding a sauce that doesn’t contain added sugar is not easy, but I did find a “no sugar added” by Ragu that with a few added seasonings tastes fantastic on the pizza. You could always make your own too but I’m not THAT brave yet.
Directions:
For the crust: For the pizza:
Preheat oven to 350.
Butter a 9×13 baking dish
Blend cream cheese and eggs and season with pepper & garlic powder
Add parmesan cheese and stir until combined
Pour into buttered baking dish
Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown (this step is important. Make sure it cooks until golden brown so that it doesn't turn out too soft.)
Let crust cool for 15 minutes before adding toppings

After crust is cooked, raise oven to 400 degrees
Mix together marinara sauce, garlic powder, cayenne pepper & oregano
Top crust with marinara and spread evenly
Top with mozzarella cheese
Add toppings
Bake for 8 minutes or until cheese is bubbly

This pizza really surprised me. I made mine with ground beef as topping, but you can use any topping you like. My husband even liked it....and he is super picky!!
The crust is not crisp like traditional pizza. Make sure you cook it til the top is golden brown and let it cool the full 15 minutes before adding the toppings and that will help.
