I already have a keto pizza casserole recipe and an infamous keto pizza crust on the blog, so why do we need another recipe for pizza without crust? Because it’s the best of both worlds. This low carb keto crustless pizza recipe has the same toppings you’d find on an everything or meat lover’s pizza, but it takes away the fuss of making a crust, skips the cauliflower you’d find in my other pizza casserole, has minimal oven time (great for summer), and is ready
Not only does this keto crustless pizza recipe satisfy even the biggest pizza cravings, but it’s also completely customizable by switching up the “toppings” – make it your own! Try it for your next pizza night, I know you’ll love it! Or, try my new pizza dip for the ultimate appetizer!
Crust free pizza takes the best part of pizza – the sauce, the veggies, the meat toppings, and the CHEESE – and turns it into a casserole (or pizza skillet?) that tastes a lot like pizza, but without the carbs that typically come from the crust.

TIP #1: The pan will seem very full when you add the veggies. If they don’t all fit, add what you can and add the rest once they start to cook down. The mushrooms will shrink especially.
TIP #2: Make sure to cook the veggies enough to get all the water out. If you don’t, your crustless pizza may be watery.
FYI: This crustless pizza recipe uses 1 cup of marinara, which is moderately saucy. If you like it extra saucy, feel free to add more marinara to your liking, but it will increase the carb count. You can also make your own keto pizza sauce to use instead!

Some pizza joints have started offering pizza without crust as an option, which is great, but if you’re strict keto, check if they add sugar to their marinara sauce.
While 8.9 grams net carbs per serving isn’t a lot, depending on your individual keto macros, it may be more than you’d like for a single meal.
If you opt for a smaller serving size, try serving it with a side Caesar salad (skip the chicken for a side).
Crustless Pizza (almost Zero Carbs!)
Yes, you can make low carb crustless pizza ahead. You can make the entire recipe and simply reheat it when you’re ready to eat, or you can prep it ahead.
Assemble the keto crustless pizza recipe and instead of broiling it, store in the refrigerator. When ready to eat, simply broil until heated through and bubbly.
Store low carb crustless pizza in the refrigerator for 4-5 days. I recommend storing it right in the (covered) pan if you can, to maintain the layers.

To freeze it, cover the top flush to the surface with plastic wrap, then wrap the pan in a layer of foil.
You can do this before or after the oven step, both ways will work. You’ll probably skip the oven step if you are making it ahead as a freezer meal, but it’s fine to freeze it even after being in the oven if you just want to freeze some leftovers.
You can heat your crustless pizza right from the freezer if you like, but it will take a long time to get warm (at least 30 minutes or more) – and you’ll have to be sure your pan can withstand the temperature change of going from freezer to oven.

To be safe, it’s better to let it thaw in the refrigerator overnight, then place the pan into the oven to heat.
Reheat this keto crustless pizza in a 350 degree F oven for 10-15 minutes, until hot. You could also scoop a serving into a bowl and microwave.

Whenever I’m craving carbs or comfort food, I have a few standbys. I enjoy making keto mac and cheese and sometimes I love a good keto gnocchi. However, when the pizza cravings strike, nothing beats a crustless pizza.

As the name suggests, a crustless pizza is everything you love about a pizza, minus the crust. It’s a popular dish for those following a low carb diet, as the base involves ground meat and it’s topped with plenty of cheese. Therefore, I make it whenever I’m craving carbs!
What I love about this recipe is just how much it satisfies my pizza cravings. Like most people, the crust is the most boring part of the pizza, and really is only there for a vehicle for all the toppings. Even those who don’t follow a low carb diet are obsessed with it!
Start by adding your olive oil into a 12-inch skillet and placing it over medium heat. Once hot, add the garlic and cook until fragrant. Add the ground turkey and use a spatula to break it apart. Cook the ground turkey for 5-6 minutes, until it is no longer pink.

Next, remove the skillet from the heat. Stir through the cheddar cheese and mix until fully incorporated and form the base of the ‘pizza’. Add the pizza sauce, followed by the pizza toppings, then add the mozzarella cheese on top.
Now, bake the crustless pizza for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling on top. Remove the pizza from the oven before slicing and serving it.
Domino’s, Papa Murphy’s and Pizza Hut all have variations of a crustless pizza, however, with different methods of cooking it. Instead of a crust around the edges, they just add extra toppings to the entire pizza is covered, hence the ‘crustless’ aspect.

While a homemade crustless pizza is keto friendly (like this recipe), takeout options like those at Domino’s or Pizza Hut are not. Both chains still have a ‘crust’ on their pizza (made with pizza dough) but cover the edge of the pizza was extra toppings, making it ‘crustless’.
