The Perfect Keto Pizza Crust

Making homemade pizza was a fun pastime for me and I thought those days were forever gone. Thankfully, this low-carb keto option is not only really delicious but it’s actually a lot faster to make than traditional pizza dough ever was.

Yup, this keto pizza is faster and easier than making a traditional pizza!  There’s no need to wait and let the dough rise or fuss with it at all.

What makes this keto pizza so easy is that you simply roll the dough out into a round-ish shape about 1/4″ thick, add all of your sauce and toppings in the middle in a circle and then fold the edges around the middle. It gives you a quick smallish pizza with the effect of a stuffed crust!

Some low carb genius came up with what is termed as fathead dough, as I’m sure by now you’ve heard of. It’s a great concept that combines cream cheese and mozzarella cheese with almond flour.

For years now it has allowed the low carb community the ability to create a myriad of bread-like options.

My crust is an adaptation of fathead dough except it uses almond and coconut flour as well as, butter, egg, and mozzarella cheese. It’s also a very stable crust that holds up to any of your favorite keto-friendly toppings!

This recipe creates 4 servings but you can easily be doubled or even triple to make a larger keto pizza pie! That’s the beauty of this dough, it’s extremely easy to work with and very forgiving!

My failed attempts when I first went keto are what caused me to be very intentional with my Keto Baking recipes like this keto freeform pizza.

I threw away so many ingredients in the beginning and I never want anyone to be so frustrated that they give up on the diet before they can see long-lasting results.

Join Our Jesus And Keto Movement 

Our family came to the keto diet looking at it from a Christian perspective. As believers, we live our entire lives supported by God’s grace.

So when the Holy Spirit led us to combine our Christian faith and the keto diet, we did so in hopes of finding lasting transformation.

To say we needed God’s intervention is putting it mildly. When we followed the Holy Spirit’s prompting to we got on the path to real transformation. 

Knowing firsthand the benefits of this decision we have created a closed Christian group that is using the keto diet to transform their lives. 

I love how supportive and encouraging this group of believers is. It’s exciting to see how people are transforming their lives by combining this lifestyle with the Christian faith. 

We invite you to join our Private Facebook Group and see if it’s not the key you have been missing.

Be sure to request our FREE Jesus and Keto E-Book (First 7 Days) We hope it blesses you.

Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Additional Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes

This recipe for keto freeform pizza is a delicious way to enjoy pizza while on a low carb keto diet. You can enjoy all the flavor minus the high carbs of traditional pizza and it's also gluten-free!

Ingredients

Pizza Crust:

Pizza Sauce:

  • 3/4 cup  crushed tomatoes 
  • 1/2 teaspoon of Italian Seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon of dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon of dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon of sea salt
  • ¼ tsp of red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 1 garlic cloves crushed and minced

Pizza Toppings:

  • 1 cup of mozzarella cheese (or whatever you prefer!)
  • 1 cup of fresh spinach chopped
  • ½ cup of fresh parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup of cherry tomatoes chopped
  • 2 fresh basil leaves , chopped

Instructions

PIZZA SAUCE

  1. Heat the olive oil on the stovetop at a medium to high setting. Saute the crushed garlic until translucent.
  2. Add the crushed tomatoes, spices, and sea salt. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook the sauce until it has reduced and thickened. Set aside.

PIZZA DOUGH

  1. In a medium-sized bowl combine the coconut flour and the almond flour and salt.
  2. Melt the unsalted butter and set aside.
  3. To the dry ingredients add the melted butter and combine quickly.
  4. Next, add the whole egg and combine.
  5. Melt the mozzarella cheese in the microwave for a total of 90 seconds stirring halfway through. Once it comes out of the microwave mix well until fully incorporated. You can also melt the mozzarella cheese in a double boiler.
  6. Add the melted mozzarella cheese to the mixture and knead the dough with your hands until all the cheese is blended well into the pie dough. I recommend you do so between two sheets of parchment paper so that the dough doesn't stick to your hands.
  7. Wrap the dough in parchment paper and place in the freezer for 15 minutes to chill. While the dough chills, prepare your toppings.

ASSEMBLING THE PIZZA AND BAKING

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Once the dough has chilled, roll out into a large circle about 1/4" thick. In the center of the dough, leaving a 3" border. add your sauce, cheese, and toppings. Fold the edges of the dough up and over toppings, pleating as needed. The dough is very forgiving and can be pressed together if any "cracks" occur.
  3. Once folded, gently cup the sides with both your hands to reinforce the shape of your keto pizza pie and bake for 20 to 30 minutes until it's golden brown.
  4. Serve immediately and top with parmesan cheese.
  5. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Notes

Toppings can be customized to your personal preference. The dough can easily be doubled, or tripled! You will need to add an additional 15 to 30 minutes of baking time if you increase the size of the pizzas.

To save time you can also use your favorite store brought pizza sauce. The key to try to find a pizza sauce with the least amount of carbs.
