Keto Pizza
Keto Pizza – no soggy crust here! Most fathead dough is limp and flavorless. Not this pizza crust! A great low-carb dinner.
KETO PIZZA
My husband has been doing Keto for over a year now religiously. He has tried all of the fathead dough recipes out there and they have all left us wanting. They were limp and soggy. So soft that there’s no way you could pick it up. It could only be eaten with a fork.
Finally, he came up with this Keto crust that has cheese in the crust and gets crispy. As crispy as you want it to. The longer you cook it the crispier it gets. Top it with your favorite toppings!
We basically have this recipe memorized because we make it so much.
The size and shape of your pizza is up to you. My husband prefers a thin, really crispy crust. I prefer a moderately thicker crust and a little less crispy.
KETO PIZZA CRUST INGREDIENTS:
- Eggs

- Melted Butter
- Almond Flour
- Salt
- Garlic Powder
- Cheese – mozzarella is traditional. Cheddar would be great too.
HOW MANY CARBS IN THIS KETO PIZZA?

Keto Pizza
Keto Pizza - no soggy crust here! Most fathead doughs are limp and flavorless. Not this pizza crust!
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons cottage cheese (sour cream can be substituted)
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon pink Himalayan or sea salt
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or any other shredded cheese)
- low-carb pizza sauce (like Roa's), shredded cheese, pepperoni, sausage, veggies
Instructions
Preheat oven or air fryer to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, cottage cheese, and butter. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, garlic powder, and salt. Add dry mixture to the wet ingredients and stir to combine. Mixture will be wet. Stir in the cheddar cheese.
Roll dough between two parchment paper sheets to desired size, thickness, and shape. The dough will be very wet. You will need to peel the top parchment sheet off and bake it on the bottom sheet of parchment on a baking sheet. Bake for 12-14 minutes or until desired level of crispiness. The longer you bake it the crispier it gets!
Remove from oven and load your pizza however you like with all of your favorite sauces, cheese, and toppings. Bake pizza for another 5-8 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
I’m so Grateful that I came across your recipe today because I really do miss a good pizza.i followed the directions exactly and rolled out the crust very thin (1/4”) on a cookie sheet . It baked up beautifully and held up very well when baked again loaded with toppings. I’ve bookmarked this recipe and will definitely come back to it regularly. I still can’t believe how quick it all went together too. A+!
Awesome! We love it too!
I would give this recipe ten stars if I could. I didn’t roll it out because I’m out of parchment paper, but I did butter my pan and spread it out. We were so thrilled to have pizza with such an amazing crust. The whole family enjoyed it. I also used cashew flour instead of almond flower and it worked great!! It doesn’t take long to make at all! I will use this recipe over and over!
Awesome!
This was the best homemade pizza ever! My daughter made hers with sauce, feta and bacon and I stuck with just sauce, cheese and pepperoni. Really good. Crust is a 10+.
Thank you!
This was seriously delish. If you’re doing keto or not, this crust is crispy and so so good!
Thank you!
This recipe worked perfectly for me! I added 1/4 cup ground flax seed and it added a nice nutty flavor and texture.
Interesting twist!
I was looking for a keto dough to use around some gourmet hotdogs but most called for cream cheese (which I didn’t have). I found this and thought that using pizza dough might work. Well – it was absolutely delicious. My daughter took the meat out and just enjoyed this crust with all this cheese. I will definitely make this again – as a pizza.
Awesome thanks!
Can i use vegetable oil instead of the butter? Its all i have right now
Sure! It will give a different texture.
Been struggling to go keto bc I love pizza so much, this recipe turned out so well! Delicious! Thanks so much for sharing !
You’re welcome!
This crust is fantastic—even without any toppings! The recipe says the serving size is 4, but your pictures show more than 4 “slices”. Are your pictures based on a doubled version? The crust doesn’t look thin, and my crust (a little thinner than pictured) yielded about six 4”x3.5” squares. I’m not going to change a thing the next time I make it (nor the hundredth!); I just want to get a clearer idea of the actual serving size used in the nutritional values. Thank you (and your husband!) for this wonderful recipe!
So the whole pizza showed in the picture is two servings. I just cut them up smaller for easier eating.
Has anyone tried freezing the crust after cooking to use at a later date
We have. It works great!
Great Job!
Thanks for sharing this recipe. I made your pizza and another Keto pizza at the same time just so that I could decide which one would be better. Yours won hands down, this is now my favorite Keto pizza recipe.
Awesome!!!!
Hi,
Wounderful pizza 🙌🏼
How many carbs in 1 serving? 4g? Or 7g?
This Doug is for 4 serving if I understand it correct.
Thank you 🙂
The whole recipe is 4 servings. carbs are 7 per serving with 3 fiber per serving so 4 net carbs per serving.
Much easier and tastier than I expected! And to the person who asked about using mozzarella, we did and it turned out great. I will definitely make this pizza again.
Yep mozzarella would be great!
Hi I’m confused when you say roll the dough between to sheets
Between the parchment sheets.. It’s a wet dough.
Keto Pizza = AWESOME!!!
I am not a cook, not a baker, not anything to do with the kitchen. I am a disaster waiting to happen in the kitchen. I have proof.
But (at age 68) I made this Keto Pizza all by myself and it was wonderful!!! And easy by my standards! My husband was impressed and loved the pizza too!!! This is a very good and easy and tasty and delicious pizza. And I did not require a “spotter” as I cooked! This cooking experience was incident and accident free! And my kitchen did not end up a disastrous nightmare that my husband had to clean up! THANK YOU MORE THAN YOU KNOW!!!
I may attempt the Apple Crisp Pizza and the Chocolate Chip Pizza! Lookout husband!!!
Oh my Cathrine! Thank you for taking the time to tell me that. It means the world to me!
Sauce highly recommended here!!
Thanks!
My crust was all soggy, even baked it 20 minutes. Followed recipe exactly.
I just made it for the first time tonight and it was perfect! I think if it is soggy then it needs to be first , pressed thinner before going in the oven. and then left in the oven longer
Yep! exactly!
It might help to make it thinner and bake longer. How thick was yours?
Would it come out the same with mozzarella instead of cheddar or is there a reason? Just asking cause it’s all I have right now. Anyone try it with mozzarella?
Yes, any cheese will work!
I just want to say I have tried four or five of your recipes and they easily top many of the other ones on the internet. I love all your food! This is making my keto journey a fun one. I’m trying this pizza recipe tomorrow. 😋
Oh thank you. What a compliment. I will try to bring you more Keto recipes!
This is definitely the best pizza crust that I’ve ever made for Keto. I thank you so much for working so hard on the recipe. I doubled it and made 6 little pizzas personal size. Thank you again.
We just made them last night and I’m glad you agree!
What is the serving size for this recepie?
So it makes two pizzas, four servings!
I LIKE EVERYTHING ABOUT [KETO] & LOVE YOU FOR GIVING ME HOPE TO CONTINUE MY ADVENTURE IN THIS “RENEWED” LIVING OF MINE. I’VE BEEN AWAY FROM IT FOR [30-YEARS]. THANKS AGAIN & CONTINUE THE [GREAT WORK].
Thank you Hazel!
Oh wow! So good!!!
Thank you Thomas!
can I use almond pastry flour?
I’m not sure how different that is from regular almond flour? I don’t see why not.
Is this recipe for 4 servings or 1 serving?
This recipe is for 4 servings.
I am post-op a bariatric patient. how can I save a few more calories on this? Like cut another 50 maybe even a 100 calories off per serving somehow?
Please update to include total number of servings for this recipe??
The recipe lists at the top that it has 4 servings for this dough.
So I would either roll it thinner so that your serving size is smaller. I’m not sure how you could reduce calories here…
Cannot wait you try this! The fathead dough is ok but this sounds fabulous!!
Hope you try it!
How many serving is this recipe?
Thanks!
It’s 4 servings!
Can you use coconut flour instead?
I made 1 and half of this recipe to make 2 personal pizzas. OMG..This is better than any cauliflower keto or other keto pizza dough..my partner who isnt keto,really liked it as well..this one is a keeper.
Thank you! I’m so glad you liked it.
By far the best one I have tried. Could not stop eating the crust before the toppings went on.
A+ for this one.
That makes me so happy!
The recipe is 4 servings I see , is the pizza for 1 person ? Or did you split this with your husband
