Pin This RecipeThis pizza is low-carb and gluten free. For me, that usually translates into no taste, but this was really good! The “crust” is made with cream cheese, eggs and parmesan cheese. It doesn’t sound like it would work, but it does. You can make the crust ahead of time if you are pressed for time. It can be stored in the refrigerator or in the freezer. We were really surprised at how good this pizza was. We both really enjoyed it, and actually didn’t miss the traditional crust. It is definitely going in the rotation for pizza night.
Where’s The Crust Pizza
Ingredients:
- 1 (8-oz) package of full fat cream cheese, room temperature
- 2 eggs

- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- favorite pizza toppings
- 1/4 tsp Garlic powder
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350ºF. Lightly spray a 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray.
- With a handheld mixer, mix cream cheese, eggs, pepper, garlic powder, and parmesan cheese until combined. Spread into a baking dish.

Notes:
This is not a crispy pizza crust. I will be firm but soft.

I'd love to try this gluten free recipe to my mom, but her celiac disease comes with lactose intolerance too, so.. cheese is not allowed =(
i make this all the time! I use the Neufecel (sp?) cheese which is very soft and very low in fat or FF CC and it works great. Never eggy always great. If you use full fat i think it is a tad firmer but i dont really care about that so for me it works great. I tell ppl about this recipe all the time 🙂 PC is an amazing place to get great recipes 🙂
In the oven as we speak. I'm sure it will be tasty.
What could I use to replace eggs, my daughter is allergic to them?

Tried it tonight. Was pretty good. I was going to take the crust out of the pan and put it on a pizza tray, but it wouldn't come out cleanly. I think I'll try again next time. Very tasty alternative for pizza.
So glad you enjoyed it!
thank you for this recipe! The crust is actually Cooling as I type… Is there anyway you can post a picture of what the crust is supposed to look like before the toppings are put on it? I'm fairly new to this site I don't know much about it if you could add more pictures… Thank you
Do you think I could cut this in half and make it in a 9×9 pan? I only want to make a meal for 2. Also, what would make a good side dish to go with it?
A 9×9 pan should work fine if you half the recipe. I usually serve salad with pizza. You could also do asparagus.
Thank you Julie!! It is being used without permission. I reported it to Facebook.
Holly – so glad you liked it!
I made this today also on a gluten free diet..I used soy and gluten free galic and jalopeno cheese. Organic mushroom baby spinach, and greenpepper! Now that was some good pizza! Will definitely make this again!!
I am on a gluten fast and look forward to making this. I don't have a hand mixer – just a standard KitchenAid. Would it work to use that? Would I want to use the wisk attachment? Thank you!
I just mixed my crust ingredients in my nutribullet (I'm sure a blender would work the same).Ive made it twice now and both times it game out great!!
@Jeanne, you have found yourself among people who have learned that the key to weight management without hunger is low carb diets! So most of us agree that since this meal avoids carbs, it is a healthier option. Adding a salad or veggie toppings could make it healthier, but skipping the wheat crust is a good start!
Made this tonight. Super good. Had a sort of lasagna flair. Will definitely make again! Thx!
I love your recipes!.
This looks so very good, I love pizza!.
