📝 Jeff’s Cloud Bread Pizza Recipe:
Ingredients:
– 6 egg whites
– 1.5 cups low-fat mozzarella cheese
– 45 grams of turkey pepperoni
– 1 cup sugar-free marinara sauce (of your choice)
– 3 teaspoons cornstarch
– 1 teaspoon thyme
– 1 teaspoon basil
– 1 teaspoon rosemary
– Parchment paper
– Pam cooking spray
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
2. In a bowl, use an egg beater to whisk the 6 egg whites for about 3 minutes until they become frothy.
3. Add the thyme, basil, rosemary, and cornstarch to the whisked egg whites. Continue whisking for an additional minute to combine the ingredients well.
4. Line a pizza cooking pan with parchment paper and spray it with Pam cooking spray to prevent sticking.
5. Pour the egg white mixture onto the parchment paper, shaping it into a circular pizza crust.
6. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for approximately 15 minutes until it turns golden brown.
7. Remove the partially cooked pizza crust from the oven and spread the sugar-free marinara sauce evenly over the crust.
8. Sprinkle most of the low-fat mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce, leaving about a quarter cup for later.
9. Arrange the turkey pepperoni slices over the cheese.
10. Finally, sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese on top of the pepperoni.
11. Place the pizza back in the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
12. Once the pizza is cooked to your desired level of crispness, remove it from the oven.
13. Allow the pizza to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
