Keto Pizza Crust - Fathead Pizza variations
My picture shows a fathead pizza on the left and a lightly smaller cauliflower crust on the right, before baking.

Servings: 4 to 6 slices (see carb amounts below)

Servings: 4-6 slices (see carb amounts below)
Ingredients
  • 1 ¾ cups pre shredded/grated cheese mozzarella or other mild cheese (6 oz)
  • ¾ cup almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese
  • 1 egg (or 2 egg whites?)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt to taste
  •  
  • Seasonings that complement the pizza toppings (small amounts like ¼ to 12 teaspoon)
  • Italian pizza: garlic powder, oregano, Italian seasonings, rosemary
Steps
  1. Mix the shredded/grated cheese and almond flour/meal in a microwaveable bowl. Add the cream cheese.
  2. Microwave on HIGH for 1 minute.
  3. Stir then microwave on HIGH for another 30 seconds.
  4. Add the egg, salt, rosemary and any other flavourings, mix gently.
  5. Place in between 2 pieces of baking parchment/paper and roll into a circular pizza shape. Remove the top baking paper/parchment. If the mixture hardens and becomes difficult to work with, pop it back in the microwave for 10 to 20 seconds to soften again but not too long or you will cook the egg.
  6. Make fork holes all over the pizza base to ensure it cooks evenly.
  7. Slide the baking paper/parchment with the pizza base, on a baking tray (cookie tray) or pizza stone, and bake at 425F for 12 to 15 minutes, or until brown.
  8. To make the base really crispy and sturdy, flip the pizza over (onto baking paper/parchment) once the top has browned.
  9. Once cooked, remove from the oven and add all the toppings you like. Make sure any meat/toppings is already cooked as this time it goes back into the oven just to heat up the toppings and melt the cheese. Bake again at 425F for 5 minutes.
