1 1/2 cups Carbquik
1/3 cup hot water (heated to 120-140 degrees)
8 ounces ricotta cheese made from whole milk
4 ounces sliced pepperoni
1/2 cup sliced mushroom
6 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
Pre-heat oven to 450ºF. Grease 12-inch pizza pan.
Stir together Carbquik mix and very hot water; beat until soft dough forms. Knead dough 2-3 minutes until the dough is dry and no longer sticky.
Press dough in pizza pan. Spread ricotta cheese over the dough. Top with remaining ingredients.
Bake on the lowest rack in hot oven 12 to 15 minutes or until crust is golden brown and cheese is bubbly.
Additional low-carb topping Ideas: meats, peppers, olives, and asparagus
NOTE: If you prefer to eat a more traditional pizza with sauce, then be sure you par bake the crust for 7 minutes in a 400ºF oven before adding sauce and toppings. Otherwise, the sauce may soak into the dough causing the pizza to come out soggy.
