Bread Ingredients

Almond flour is a great source of natural fiber and protein and serves as a perfect base for making this bread. (I particularly like Bob’s Red Mill brand which is superfine ground). Coconut oil is also an excellent source of healthy fats while the eggs (a superfood!) offer up protein and amino acids.

Almond Flour Bread Dough

This recipe is perfect for avocado or egg salad toast, sandwiches, or even torn up to use in a low carb Panzella salad, stuffing or breakfast strata recipe. It’s also delicious simply toasted with butter or dipped in olive oil and herbs as a snack or appetizer. The possibilities are endless!

Low Carb Almond Flour Bread

Fat Head Pizza {Low Carb, Keto, Gluten Free}

Fathead Pizza

Fat Head Pizza

So you can take a girl out of New York but you can’t take the New York Pizza out of the girl. True story. New York #pizza is one of my favorite things in the world but I’ve been doing my #lowcarb/#keto diet the past 2 weeks and its definitely not on the list of acceptable foods, and is one of those things I truly miss.

Fat Head Pizza

This Fat Head Pizza has only 10g of carbs and is really easy to make (and really tasty too!) The crust is made with almond flour, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, egg and white balsamic vinegar, and pre-baked in the oven for 10-12 minutes before adding the toppings. I made a traditional pepperoni pizza because I was starving last night and wanted to keep it simple, but next time I’m definitely going to experiment with some other fun ingredients now that I have the base crust recipe.

DelGrosso Pizza Sauce

I also found a great low sugar/low carb pizza sauce at Publix called La Famiglia DelGrosso (Pappy Fred’s Old Style Pizza Sauce) that has only 3g net carbs per 1/4 cup and it’s really good! You have to be careful with premade and jarred or canned sauces because there are usually a lot of hidden sugars in them which will blow your carb count if you’re trying to stick to 20-25g per day on #Keto or #Atkins Induction phase 1..

Fat Head Pizza

Feel free to switch up the toppings to whatever veggies (onions, peppers, mushrooms, etc.) or proteins you wish (sausage, chicken, bacon, ham, etc.) and if you want to make a white pizza just use Alfredo sauce instead. Top with any garnishes you like (fresh herbs, arugula, pepper flakes) and enjoy pizza without the guilt!

Enjoy! xx, kristen

Super delish low carb pizza crust made with almond flour, cheese, egg - topped with Parmesan and Mozzarella cheese and lots of pepperoni! With only 10g of carbs, it's a great way to satisfy your pizza fix on a low carb/Atkins or Keto diet!

Ingredients

  • Crust
  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tbsp sour cream (or cream cheese)
  • 4 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • ¾ cup almond flour
  • 1 tsp white balsamic vinegar
  • 1 egg
  • ½ tsp garlic salt
  • olive oil (for hands)
  • Toppings
  • 1/2 cup low carb/low sugar pizza sauce (DelGrosso brand)
  • 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 3/4 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • Pepperoni
  • Any other additional toppings you like (veggies, sausage, etc.)
  • Red pepper flakes, garnish
  • Italian seasoning, garnish
  • Parmesan cheese, garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.

  3. Measure out the almond flour, balsamic vinegar, egg and garlic salt into a mixing bowl and add the melted cheese/sour cream mixture.
  4. Moisten your hands with olive oil and pat the dough out into a 6-8 inch circle onto a greased baking pan. You can also use a rolling pin to flatten the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and remove the parchment before baking. Try to pat or roll out the dough evenly and patch up the thin spots on the edges or they may get too dark/burn.
  5. Prick the crust all over with a fork, and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Spread the sauce on to the baked crust and add the pepperoni or desired toppings.
  7. Bake the pizza for 10 minutes. Remove, and turn the heat on broil, up to 450/500 degrees.
  8. Broil the pizza for another 2 minutes until cheese is bubbly and pepperoni is crispy.
  9. Garnish with red pepper flakes, Italian seasoning and additional grated parmesan cheese.
  10. Serves 2.
