Thin & Crispy Pizza Crust! Easiest EVER! Pics included! - Page 16

Marlee · 05-08-2010, 02:45 PM

Made mine first time tonight and I'm thrilled!

It actually tastes like crust.

Only thing I think I did wrong was to cook the crust itself too long so that when I put the topping on I had to take it out before they cheese was totally melted cause the "crust" was getting black.

Yay, pizza night is back

Thank you for this recipe!

OMG!!!! Just made this a few minutes ago and eating it as I type. This is sooooooo delicious. I can't believe it!! The crust almost tastes like bread. I'm in heaven!

Does anyone know how well this pizza reheats as leftovers. Also any suggestions for a low carb sauce. Thanks

It reheats fine. The pizza I made I used cream cheese as a "sauce" but you can make an alfredo sauce or use tomato paste to make one.

Pizza for supper tonight!! Hope there is some leftovers for breakfast in the morning!!!!

Here's my contribution to this thread:

Made it with homemade Italian sausage crumbles, sliced roma tomatoes, chopped basil, roasted garlic, mozzarella, and grated pecorino romano. I'm thrilled to be able to eat pizza again!

West Philly is not that far, I'll be there in an hour or so for a slice Looks great

3 eggs
3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp basil
press evenly into Pam sprayed pizza pan or cookie sheet
(this makes one 16 inch pizza crust)
Bake at 450 degrees until golden brown (about 10 to 15 minutes)

This slices up beautifully and the crust is crispy and thin

Since I am cooking for one a lot of the time I could just do one egg and one cup of mozzarella, right?

I make it for just 1 as i am the only one eating this way, but you must use part cheddar as the cheddar is the one that helps make it crispy...i read that somewhere back on another page in the thread...but yes just 1 egg and I use a little more than 1/2 cup of each cheddar and mozzarealla ( i love cheese) ,,,and also important to shred your own,,,less carbs and better for us....it is so easy and soooooooooooo very good....here is what mine looked like....well this was the last piece..lol

THANKS! That looks lovely. Seems all of the commercials on television these days are for pizza and I love it! I swear they are putting subliminal messages in those commercials.

Missouri_Librarian · 07-19-2010, 07:45 AM

I know they seem like that and the night I had this my family was having stuffed crust pizza hut, but i did not miss it a bit....i think mine was just as yummy....cheese stalls me so this is a rare treat for me....darn it

Rebecca1979 · 07-19-2010, 02:49 PM

Should I let the pizza completely cool before cutting or does it matter?

everyone might be differnt, but i am always so hungry when i make mine that i cut it and eat it as soon as it is cool enough to put in my salivating mouth...lol

jamistar77 · 07-19-2010, 05:02 PM

This IS GOOD!! I used to make it all the time when I was on Atkins! It sticks terribly though. I used parchment paper on my cookie sheet and it slid right off. ALSO after it baked, I flipped it and baked it for another 5 minutes. It firms up so much better that way, so much that you can pick it up with your hands. SO good. Letting it cool for a little bit before you top it is important.

Rebecca1979 · 07-19-2010, 05:26 PM

I'm using parchment next time, but............................ It was terrific! No eggy taste at all!

YummY

jamistar77 · 07-19-2010, 05:28 PM

I KNOW!! Isn't it great! The texture is so good!! I added parm cheese to my mixture and it made it ever better. I subbed 1/2 cup of the mozzarella for 1/2 cup parm.
Just a suggestion.

newyorkmeg · 07-19-2010, 05:41 PM

jamistar - Did you use the parmesan in the green can or did you grate your own?

NoSugarGrams · 07-20-2010, 05:52 AM

happylabs....

I have my own version for one.
I am the only one that eats this at my house too.

Here is my post buried in this long thread.
