GUYS! I've lost 7 lbs in 1 week EATING KETO PIZZA—
Ok, well I've eaten a lot of other tasty things too, but more importantly I have stopped late night snacking, craving sugar, and today I put on a pair of pants from 3 years ago.
Do you know how good that feels?
It's better than a late night shopping spree at Target, in your sweatpants, while drinking wine with Matthew McConaughey!
It FEELS THAT GOOD. And I want you to feel it too... so I made a YouTube video so you could see just how excited I really am! 😀 And I wrote the recipe down for you too!
I am not going to go into extreme detail about the keto diet because I wrote a post on how to get started on it right here.
This easy keto pizza crust is just the beginning of a new chapter so I can't WAIT for you to try it!
Here is the recipe for the Easy Keto Pizza!
Keto Pizza – Cheesy, No Cauliflower Crust!
Ingredients
- Crust:
- 3 T butter
- 2 c. mozzarella cheese
- 1 egg
- 1 1/3 c. almond flour You can also make and use walnut flour which has almost zero carbs!
- 1 t. garlic powder
- Toppings:
- Pizza Sauce Rao's brand is the lowest carb option besides homemade
- Mozzarella Cheese for topping
- Mushrooms
- Pan seared hamburger meat
- Pepperoni optional
- Red and green cell peppers
- Thinly sliced red onion
- Parmesan Cheese for topping
- Pan Spray Parchment Paper
Instructions
- Microwave the butter and mozzarella cheese for about 1.5 minutes. Add the almond flour and mix with a fork. Add the egg and garlic powder and stir until it looks like a dough. Eventually, knead the dough with your hands for a few minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
- Lay the parchment paper on a cookie sheet and spray with pan spray. Press the dough out to form a pizza crust. Try to get it thin! It's better!!
- Top the dough with sauce and cheese and then lay your ingredients out.
- Sprinkle with parmesan or italian seasonings if desired.
- Bake for 12 minutes, or longer to your desired crispness. Slice and serve fresh! This pizza is also great cold! (For breakfast... obviously.)

This looks great. I've been looking at your other recipes trying to make them Keto - like the walking taco's. Time for some quest protein chips!!
Another low carb spaghetti sauce is the organic Marinara sauce from Trader Joes - much less expensive. Leave it to me, I've been keto for 7 years.
Also, on a side note, get their dark chocolate chips - also way cheaper than other "keto" friendly chocolate and you don't get all those sugar alcohols.

I never thought of making walking tacos with quest chips but that is such a good idea!! I used Trader Joe's dark chocolate in a keto tart recently and it was really good but it makes the filling snap instead of soft. Interesting science going on there! 🙂

@Summer Palmberg,
Thank you for the Trader Joe's marinara sauce tip, I'll try that!

If I use Walnut flour is it the same amount as almond flour?
Sarah Penrod says
I think it should work the same, yes.

For some reason the print fuction is not working on your recipes all of them ????

Thanks for posting this recipe! I made my first cauliflower crust pizza tonight for dinner for my husband and me. It wasn't bad, but I wanted a little more texture, so when I searched, I found your recipe. Next time, I'll be trying it. Sounds delish!
Sarah Penrod says
We can't wait to hear how it goes for you Jerri! 🙂

Thank you!
Ally says
Hello! Can you freeze this to make at a later date? If yes what’s the best way to do this?
Thank you!
Sarah Penrod says
Hi Ally, I have not tried freezing the dough but I don't see a problem with rolling it out and then freezing your premade circles of dough. If you want to put toppings on it I would freeze the dough first, and then top it and refreeze. Most freezer products are IQF or individually quick frozen. This is the standard way manufacturers do it, so I assume it would be best to imitate the professionals!
