In a large bowl, add flour and baking powder; whisk well to combine.
Add cottage cheese and stir with spatula to combine, then proceed to mix with your hands until a ball of dough forms. Knead it about 20 times. Dough should be not sticky but not dry. Cover with a towel and let rest for 10 minutes. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
Place dough on a floured surface and roll into a pizza shape with rolling pin as thin as possible, while still fitting on your baking surface. Roll crust onto a rolling pin, transfer onto a baking sheet or pizza stone and unroll.
Bake pizza crust for 5 minutes, then top with marinara sauce, your favorite toppings and cheese, and bake for another 15-18 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Gluten free crust will require less baking time.
Remove from the oven, cut into 8 slices and serve.

Store: Store pizza leftovers tightly wrapped in plastic in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in air fryer or microwave.
Freeze: Freeze the dough wrapped in a few layers of plastic wrap and placed in a resealable bag. Thaw on a counter for a few hours or in the fridge overnight and then bake as per recipe. You can also freeze pre-baked pizza crust for 5 minutes and then thaw, add toppings and bake as per recipe.
