Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190 °C) (190°C (375 °F)). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Blend the cottage cheese until completely smooth.

  3. Stir in the egg, almond flour, Italian seasoning, and salt until a thick batter forms.

  4. Spoon 2–3 tablespoons of batter per pizzetta onto the prepared parchment, spreading each into a small round. Leave space between the rounds.

  5. Bake the crusts for 15–18 minutes, until firm and golden at the edges.

  6. Spread each crust with a thin layer of pizza sauce or marinara.

  7. Top the crusts with mozzarella and sliced cherry tomatoes, then drizzle with olive oil if using.

  8. Return the tray to the oven and bake for 5–7 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  9. Top with fresh basil leaves and serve warm.

Notes

The recipe makes 6–8 mini pizzettas. The structured recipe does not specify quantities for the cherry tomatoes or basil, or the amount of optional olive oil. It lists almond flour, with oat flour as an alternative for a non-keto version.
