Pizza with Cottage Cheese Crust

• 分量: 3 servings
• 調理時間: 15 minutes
• 総時間: 30 minutes

材料

1 cup cottage cheese

1 cup flour + a few tablespoons for dusting

1 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoons coarse kosher salt

1-2 tablespoons olive oil

1/4 to 1/3 cup sauce (I’ve been using Rao’s marinara)

1/3 to 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/4 to 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

手順

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees and place a rack at the highest position, near the top.

Prep Cottage Cheese

Blend the cottage cheese until smooth.

Make Dough for Crust

Place blended cottage cheese in a bowl; mix with the flour, baking powder and salt until a dough starts to come together. It will start to get kind of shaggy, crumbly, and sticky – use your hands to really bring it together. I usually turn it out on the counter and give it a few squishes, coating with a bit of extra flour, to make it into a cohesive ball.

Form The Crust

Place a sheet of parchment on a pizza pan or baking sheet. Place the dough on the parchment and press into a circle that is about 10-12 inches in diameter. It is a pretty bready crust, so you want to really press it out into a thinner, wider surface area.

Prep The Crust

Rub the top of the crust with olive oil.

Pre-Bake The Crust

Place in the oven; bake (no toppings) for 8 minutes.

Add Sauce and Cheese

Remove from oven. Spread with sauce and top with the two cheeses. Bake on that same top rack for another 5 minutes to melt the cheeses.

Broil and Finish

Finally, broil for 2-3 minutes until the cheese and crust edges are deeply golden, like the picture. I like to sprinkle the slices with red pepper flakes, drizzle with olive oil or hot honey, and dip into more sauce! It’s too good!
