Ingredients

fresh basil leaves, chiffonade (optional)
1 c. Mozzarella cheese, shredded
4 oz. pepperoni, thinly sliced
3 T. sugar-free tomato sauce
1½ T. tomato paste
Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
1 t. garlic powder, divided
1½ t. dried oregano, divided
1½ t. dried basil, divided
1/3 c. Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
2 large eggs
8 oz. cream cheese, room temperature

Method

01

Preheat oven to 375° F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
02

Combine cream cheese, eggs, Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon basil and oregano, and ½ teaspoon garlic powder in a medium-sized bowl. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and whisk until mixture is completely blended and smooth.
03

Spread the cream cheese mixture onto the prepared baking sheet into the desired shape and thickness. (For thicker crusts, reduce oven temperature to 350°F and increase baking times for best results).
04

Place the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until slightly puffed and golden brown. Check halfway through cooking time to ensure the crust bakes evenly and does not become too brown.
