Ingredients

  • For the crust:
  • - 2 cups almond flour
  • - 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • - 2 eggs
  • - 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • - 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • - 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • For the topping:
  • - 6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • - 4 eggs
  • - 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • - 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • - Salt and pepper to taste
  • - Fresh parsley, for garnish

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the mozzarella cheese in the microwave for about 1 minute, or until fully melted. Stir well to ensure it's smooth and not clumpy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, eggs, baking powder, garlic powder, dried oregano, and salt. Add the melted cheese to the mixture and stir until a dough forms.
  4. Press the dough into the bottom of a greased 9-inch deep dish pizza pan, forming the crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
  5. Remove the crust from the oven and let it cool slightly. Reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C).
  6. Spread the chopped spinach evenly over the crust, followed by the crumbled bacon.
  7. Crack the eggs one by one onto the pizza, ensuring they are evenly spaced. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
  9. Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
  10. Slice into wedges and enjoy your delicious low carb deep dish breakfast pizza!
