1. Step 1Set oven to 400°.
2. Step 2Mix together the dry ingredients in a large bowl. In a smaller bowl, beat together the wet ingredients. Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir and fold everything together. If the batter is too wet, simply add teaspoons of almond flour until it thickens.
3. Step 3Pro-tip: Let the batter rest for a few minutes in the fridge. Add a few tablespoons of almond flour to a clean countertop.  Kneed the dough, folding and re-folding, adding tablespoons of almond flour until the dough is no longer sticky.
4. Step 4Add the dough to a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Carefully spread out the dough in the form of a circle or rectangle (or your desired shape).
5. Step 5Bake in the oven for 6 to 8 minutes until the edges of the pizza are lightly browned. Be careful of over-baking – the longer you bake it, the crispier it will be upon cooling. Remove the pizza from the oven.
6. Step 6Add the cheese and the tomato slices. Bake in the oven for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and lightly browned.  Remove from the oven.
7. Step 7Garnish and enjoy!
