Garlic & Spinach White Pizza with Cottage Cheese Crust. This white pizza has become a family favorite in our house! The creamy cottage cheese crust is not only high in protein but also serves as the perfect base for garlicky spinach and melty cheese. It’s a fun and delicious way to sneak in some greens, and my kids love helping to assemble it.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or pizza stone.
  2. In a bowl, mix cottage cheese, almond flour, egg, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
  3. Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping it into a pizza crust. Bake for about 20 minutes, until set and lightly golden.
  4. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté the garlic until fragrant, then add the chopped spinach and cook just until wilted.
  5. Spread the spinach mixture over the baked crust. Top with mozzarella, Parmesan, and Italian seasoning. Return to the oven and bake for another 10–15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Notes

  • For a firmer crust, drain excess liquid from the cottage cheese before mixing.
  • Customize with extras like artichokes or olives for even more flavor.
