Keto Pizza – Low Carb Pizza Recipe [VIDEO]

Guilt-free Pizza!
With a low carb pizza crust and a low carb pizza sauce, you get a keto pizza! A year ago, if you would have told me that there’s a low carb pizza recipe that tastes better than regular pizza, I would neither believe you nor want to try it. Today, I’m here telling you that there is such a thing and you can be eating it within an hour. And it really does taste as great (I think even better) than regular, carb loaded pizza.
We used this awesome stromboli crust recipe for our pizza crust (minus the butter). The crust is great because it’s pretty low carb and has its own delicious flavors from the spices making the pizza even more unique. Fennel, garlic, and red pepper flakes all go great with pizza sauce and melted cheese and we love how interesting and complex the flavors are- its like a whole new kind of pizza!
If you aren’t a huge fan of these spices, you can try using dried basil instead of fennel and dried oregano in place of the red pepper flakes. This will give you a more traditional, Italian taste to the pizza crust that may satisfy your craving for pizza even more. YOu can also skip the spices for a more basic pizza crust. All of these options will still keep the crust low carb and perfect for your keto pizza. The crust is also nice and thin which gives the pizza a little bit of a crunchy edge that we love.
Even with a thin crust, it’s very sturdy and quite filling which is great because many crust recipes we’ve tried on keto were super soggy and pizzas aren’t meant to be soft! You need to be able to pick up that slice and put it right in your mouth without the pizza falling apart! No one likes a pizza you have to eat with a fork…
If you like spicy food, you can replace the mozzarella with pepper jack cheese, it’ll give the crust that extra kick you’re looking for. There are so many ways to make this low carb pizza recipe your own!

All the toppings you put on your pizza are totally optional but something we recommend you try with your next pizza is some ricotta cheese. It’s warm, super creamy and makes every bite that much more delightful.
In all honesty, we haven’t tasted such a delicious pizza in a long time, so we made these 2 days in a row and had friends confirm our crazy suspicions that homemade pizza can truly be better than a pizza from a top NYC pizzeria. Hurry up and make this and tell us what you thought! Don’t forget to use our homemade pizza sauce recipe.

Instructions

Low Carb Pizza Crust

Preheat oven to 400° degrees.

Melt shredded cheese in toaster oven or microwave until soft and malleable.

Add almond flour, coconut flour and egg to your melted cheese and combine. Make sure all ingredients are well combined (heat for 10 seconds again if necessary).

Place the dough between 2 sheets of parchment paper and roll into your desired shape (we chose round!).

Bake at 400° for 12-15 minutes (until slightly golden).

Pizza Toppings

Evenly spread the sauce over the crust. Get it as close to the edges as you like!

Lay out the sliced mozzarella over the sauce. Add little globs of ricotta all around (so you get some in every slice).

Place all your other favorite toppings and bake the pizza in the oven for about 10 minutes at 400° until the mozzarella is fully melted (you can also let it bake until cheese is lightly golden).
