Step 1

Preheat oven to 360°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Add cottage cheese to a food processor or to a high speed blender. Blend on high for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until it reaches a smooth and creamy texture.

Step 3

In a large bowl combine whole-wheat flour with blended cottage cheese and baking powder. Quickly stir until it comes to form a dough–adjust with more flour if it is sticky or a splash of milk if it is too dry.

Step 4

Transfer the mixture over a clean floured surface and knead to form a soft dough ball.

Step 5

With the aid of a rolling pin and your hands, shape into a round of about 15 cm 6-inch (15 cm), with the edges thicker than the center, sprinkling more flour if it gets sticky.

Step 6

Spread the pizza sauce over the crust, leaving a slight border around the edges. Sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese and your favorite toppings like turkey pepperoni, ham or veggies.

Step 7

Bake in hot oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the pizza crust is golden brown. Let cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
