💰Cheaper: cheddar cheese

Part-skim mozzarella reduces fat, while cheddar is often less expensive.

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Greek yogurt adds creaminess with fewer calories, while ricotta is often cheaper.

pizza sauce

🥗Healthier: homemade tomato sauce

💰Cheaper: canned tomatoes

Homemade sauce can be fresher and healthier, while canned tomatoes are budget-friendly.

Mix dry ingredients: almond flour, golden flaxseeds, psyllium husks, baking powder, salt, instant yeast, and Italian seasonings until well combined.

Add wet ingredients: olive oil and hot or boiling water to the dry mixture and mix until a dough forms.

Knead the dough for a while, wearing gloves if the dough is hot.

Shape the dough into a ball, then flatten and spread it into a round shape with a diameter of 10 to 12 inches.

Fold the edges into a ring to create a raised edge.

For best results, weigh the ingredients. This recipe can also make 2 thin crusts; for a single thin crust, just half the recipe.

Place the dough on a 12-inch pan with a perforated surface to make the bottom crust crispier (or any suitable pan).

Brush the dough with olive oil and prick some holes with a fork.

Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 20 to 30 minutes or until golden brown.

Spread generously with pizza sauce.

Top with 200 g (2 cups) of grated mozzarella cheese, reserving a bit of cheese for later.

Add 50 g (17 small pieces) of beef salami on top of the cheese and sprinkle reserved cheese over it.

Bake in the oven for an additional 5 minutes just until the cheese has melted.

Sprinkle with chopped parsley and cut into 8 servings or more using a rocking pizza cutter.
