Pizza dengan Kerak Keju Cottage

Langkah-langkah

1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees and place a rack at the highest position, near the top.
2. Blend the cottage cheese until smooth.
3. Place blended cottage cheese in a bowl; mix with the flour, baking powder and salt until a dough starts to come together. It will start to get kind of shaggy, crumbly, and sticky – use your hands to really bring it together. I usually turn it out on the counter and give it a few squishes, coating with a bit of extra flour, to make it into a cohesive ball. (You can also use a food processor to mix all ingredients into a dough! Super easy.)
4. Place a sheet of parchment on a pizza pan or baking sheet. Place the dough on the parchment and dust the surface with flour – it will be sticky. Press into a circle that is about 12 inches in diameter. It is a pretty bready crust, so you want to make sure to press it wide enough that it doesn’t get entirely thick and soft. Pressing it thinner will get you a few more crispy bites.
5. Rub the top of the crust with olive oil.
6. Place in the oven; bake (no toppings) for 10 minutes. It will be slightly puffed and a little golden.
7. Remove from oven. Spread with sauce and top with the two cheeses. Bake on that same top rack for another 5 minutes to melt the cheeses.
8. Finally, broil for 2-3 minutes until the cheese and crust edges are deeply golden, like the picture. (My goal is always to get a few crisped bites around the edges.) I like to sprinkle the slices with red pepper flakes, drizzle with olive oil or hot honey, and dip into more sauce! It’s too good!
