Method
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, large egg, grated Parmesan cheese, almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
- Using your hands, mix all the ingredients thoroughly until well combined. Ensure there are no large lumps and the mixture is uniform.
- Transfer the turkey mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Using a spatula or your hands, spread the mixture evenly into a circular shape, about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick, forming a pizza crust approximately 9-10 inches in diameter. You can slightly raise the edges to create a rim.
- Bake the turkey crust for 20-25 minutes, or until it is firm, cooked through, and lightly browned. Some liquid may release from the turkey; you can carefully blot it with a paper towel if desired.
- Remove the crust from the oven. Carefully add your desired low-carb pizza toppings (such as sugar-free tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, and your choice of meats and vegetables).
- Return the topped pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the toppings are heated through. Slice and serve immediately.
Notes
For a crispier crust, you can par-bake the turkey crust for 15 minutes, remove, press down any puffiness, then flip it over and bake for another 5-10 minutes before adding toppings. Ensure your ground turkey is very lean to prevent excessive grease.
