Instructions
0 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and put a large baking tray in the oven while preheating it. Adding the dough to a hot pan helps make sure the bottom is cooked. 1 Blend the [wprm-ingredient text="2 cups cottage cheese" uid="0"] until smooth and creamy. Mix the [wprm-ingredient text="2 cups all-purpose flour" uid="1"], [wprm-ingredient text="3 tsp baking soda" uid="2"], [wprm-ingredient text="1/4 tsp salt" uid="3"], [wprm-ingredient text="2 tbsp Italian seasoning" uid="4"], and [wprm-ingredient text="2 tsp garlic powder" uid="5"] in a bowl. Add the blended cottage cheese and mix well to combine into a dough. If it’s too sticky, knead in more flour. 2 Tape two pieces of parchment paper (if you use a silicon mat, you don’t need tape to hold it down) onto the counter and place the dough on each one (half and half or do 4 personal pizzas). Use a rolling pin or cup to roll out the dough as thin as possible, adding flour as needed to prevent sticking. 3 Remove the preheated baking sheet from the oven and carefully place the parchment paper with the pizza dough on it. Bake for 6 minutes and then carefully remove. Repeat with the remaining dough. 4 Top with desired pizza sauce, any desired toppings, and then cheese. 5 Return to the oven for 10-12 minutes, broiling the last 1-2 for a nice bubbly cheesy top.View original recipe
