How To Make Fathead Dough (even Without A Microwave)

It reminds me of a classic pizza crust from either Dominos or Pizza Hut! Seriously, try it out on your friends and family and see if they can tell the difference.

Start by placing your almond flour into a large mixing bowl. Next, microwave your mozzarella cheese with Greek yogurt, until the cheese has melted. Moving quickly, add the melted cheese mixture into the almond flour, along with the egg, and mix very well, until completely combined. Using your hands, knead the dough until smooth. Form a ball of dough and transfer to a flat surface, lined with parchment paper. Place another piece of parchment paper over it and roll it out, until desired thickness. Place on a baking sheet or pizza tray, top with toppings of choice and bake for 12 minutes.
