Make a satisfying, low carb pizza at home using a simple almond flour crust. This recipe delivers great flavor for your pizza night on keto.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups almond flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup low-sugar pizza sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Your favorite low carbohydrate toppings (e.g., pepperoni, mushrooms, bell peppers)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt for the crust.
  3. In a separate small bowl, mix the beaten egg, olive oil, and water.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms. Do not overmix.
  5. Place the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Press the dough out evenly into a 10 to 12-inch circle or rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
  6. Bake the crust plain for 8 to 10 minutes until it starts to firm up slightly.
  7. Remove the crust from the oven. Spread the low-sugar pizza sauce evenly over the partially baked crust.
  8. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then add your chosen low carbohydrate toppings.
  9. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust edges are golden brown.
  10. Let the pizza cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • For a crispier crust, you can bake the crust for an extra 3 minutes before adding toppings.
  • If you prefer a richer flavor, substitute the olive oil with melted butter in the crust dough.
  • Use a low-carb, no-sugar-added sauce to keep your net carb count low.
