Keto Pizza is one of my guilty pleasures.
Even though it isn’t unhealthy or high carb – it feels like I’m cheating somehow.
Every time I have it, I feel guilty and proud at the same time.
I’m getting closer to my goals while enjoying something so contradictory to weight loss and health!
Maybe I’m just rambling and you have no idea what I’m talking about, haha!
I really love to make keto pizza because it’s something that the whole family will enjoy.
Almost everyone loves pizza and even though I’m not claiming it tastes exactly like “real pizza” – it does taste good!
Especially, when it’s fresh out of the oven and you can enjoy it with a cold glass of diet co*ke.
It’s also a great way to meal prep for the week as well!
Unfortunately, it’s not a paleo-friendly recipe because the pizza contains a significant amount of cheese and I don’t think you can substitute it with a paleo-friendly alternative.
You can find paleo-friendly recipes here!
Pizza on the keto diet? No way, right?
Not anymore! This keto pizza is low in carbs, high in protein and fat and first and foremost: delicious!
¾ cup (100g) finely ground almond flour
1 egg
2 cups (230g) shredded mozarella cheese
3 tbsp (42.5g) full fat cream cheese
salt, pepper
optional: italian seasoning
Topping: (Optional)
4 tbsp (60ml) sugar-free tomato sauce
1 oz ham
1 oz salami (pepperoni)
6 pepperconcini
4 champignons, sliced
shredded mozarella cheese
1
In a large bowl, melt the shredded mozzarella cheese and the cream cheese.
You can either use a microwave or a double boiler to do this.
If you use a microwave: Microwave the bowl with the mozzarella and cream cheese for approx. 1-2 minutes. (the time may vary heavily depending on the microwave and what settings you're using - start with a shorter amount of time and pop it back in if it hasn't melted yet. Don't overcook it!)
If you use a double boiler: Stir the mozzarella cheese while it's melting. It takes a while for the mozzarella cheese to melt completely, approx. 5-10 minutes.
2
Add the flour, egg, and seasoning to the melted mozzarella cheese and knead the dough with your hands until you get a smooth mass.
Place the dough onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper and start to press it into its form.
Form the dough until you get a circular shape that's approx. 1/3" in diameter.
3
Bake the dough without the topping for approx. 7-10 minutes at 350°F/180°C.
Take the pizza dough out of the oven and add the tomato sauce and other toppings of your choice.
Add extra shredded mozzarella cheese on top of everything and pop the pizza back into the oven for another 10 minutes.
4
Enjoy the pizza with a cold glass of diet soda.
