🧂 Ingredients

1 cup cottage cheese
1 cup all-purpose flour

or 00 pizza flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup pizza sauce
½ teaspoon dried oregano
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

1 Preheat the oven together with a pizza stone or baking sheet to 450°F (230°C)
2 Blend the cottage cheese in a blender until smooth.
3 In a large bowl, combine the blended cottage cheese, flour, baking powder, and
salt. Start by mixing with a spoon, then switch to your hands until a sticky
dough forms. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead with your hands
until smooth. If the dough remains too sticky, gradually add up to 2 additional
tablespoons of flour.
4 Dust with more flour, then roll the dough into a round crust of 12-inch diameter
using a rolling pin.
5 Transfer the crust onto a parchment paper-lined pizza peel. Using the peel,
slide the crust, along with the parchment paper, onto the preheated pizza
stone/baking sheet in the oven. Bake for 7 minutes.
6 Remove the crust from the oven, spread with pizza sauce, sprinkle with oregano,
then top with Parmesan and mozzarella cheese. Bake for another 5 minutes until
the cheese is melted and bubbly.
7 I love to top the pizza with fresh basil leaves and freshly cracked black pepper
before serving.
