Ingredients

• Shredded mozzarella cheese - 1 cup
• Cream cheese - 60 grams
• Egg - 1 large
• Poblano peppers - 2 medium, roasted and sliced
• Ground cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Garlic powder - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, shredded mozzarella, cream cheese, egg, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the mixture into a pizza shape, about 1 cm thick.
4. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
5. While the crust is baking, roast the poblano peppers over an open flame or in a broiler until charred. Place in a sealed bag for 10 minutes, then peel off the skin and slice.
