I have found a low-carb pizza dough recipe where you add 6oz of Cream Cheese and 6 eggs to make the dough (also includes some garlic, spices, and cheese). The recipe claims to be deep-dish, but I just can't see this recipe working out, or tasting good.

I would like some feedback on this, because I really don't have much time when I come home to cook, so if I make it and it doesn't turn out right, I won't have much of a backup plan.

Don't think of that as dough. This looks like basically making a quiche base to put pizza toppings on.

I don't see any reason to think this recipe won't be stable but it won't be anything like pizza crust. Still it sounds tasty.

I've actually made this twice now. First time I did not let the cream cheese get to room temperature, so it wasn't the right consistency. Second time, the "crust" was right, I just didn't cook it long enough.

The recipe says to cook just the "dough" until it starts getting brown, but you really need to cook it longer. Next time I cook it, when it starts getting brown, I am going to put olive oil on the "crust" and cook it longer.

The edges (the second time I made it) were real good because they got a little crispy, but the inside was still a little loose. I must say, this recipe makes a very good pizza. The biggest problem for me was finding low carb pizza sauce.
