Base

  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 2 large eggs

  • Pesto
  • Shredded mozzarella

  2. Add cottage cheese, eggs, and flour to a bowl.

  3. Mix until well combined.

  4. Line a pizza pan or baking tray with parchment paper.

  5. Pour the mixture onto the parchment and spread it into a thin round base.

  6. Bake for 20–25 minutes, until golden and set.

  7. Remove from the oven. Spread pesto over the crust.

  8. Add mozzarella, cherry tomatoes, and fresh basil.

Recipe Tip

Let the baked base set for a minute before adding the toppings. It makes it easier to handle.
