I’ve tried several different pizza crusts and have yet to find one that I love. Most aren’t very sturdy and have to be eaten with a fork. Usually, when I’m craving pizza, I make a Keto Pizza Casserole, which is a fabulous crustless alternative. However, today at lunch, I wanted pizza and didn’t want to make a big family-sized pizza casserole.

Keto

As I was thinking about the different kinds of keto-approved bread I’ve made, my 90 Second Bread that Tastes Good Recipe came to mind. I thought I could definitely tweak that recipe to turn it into a mini keto pizza. I know a lot of people love cauliflower pizza crust, but I am not one of them. I’ve tried to make it several times, and my entire family hates it.

Almond Flour Pizza Crust (keto Pizza)

I was so excited when I took my first bite of this mini keto pizza because it was delicious! I can hold the crust without having to eat it with a fork.I’m not going to tell you this keto pizza crust recipe tastes EXACTLY LIKE or BETTER THAN my favorite pan pizza, but I will say it is an excellent alternative!

Step 1: First, make the keto pizza crust! I start with a 6-inch pyrex glass dish to make the crust for the keto pan pizza. I have had this set of Pyrex glass storage containers for over 22 years, and they are still in great shape. The middle-sized one is the one I use for this recipe.

Tip: Make sure your cream cheese is softened and butter is melted but not hot before adding the rest of the ingredients.

Step 2: After you microwave the keto pizza crust, it will be very soft and spongey. The key to getting a very sturdy crust is to brown both sides of the crust in butter using a hot cast skillet. I prefer to use a cast-iron skillet, but a regular skillet will work if you don’t have one.

Tip: To keep dirty dishes to a minimum, I would suggest an oven-safe skillet so that you can pop it in the oven to melt the cheese. Don’t skip this step, or you will be disappointed in the outcome.

Step 3: Add low-carb tomato sauce onceboth sides are nice and browned. My favorite varieties are Rao’s and Mezzetta’s since they don’t contain added sugar. I have found them both available at my local Walmart. I’ve added a list below of several other varieties along with the carb count of each.

Tip: This 3-piece cast iron skillet is an excellent value with a 6″, 8″, and 10″ variety. I love cast iron because they last forever, unlike many other skillets I’ve tried that have to be replaced almost yearly. Plus, it’s perfect for all sorts of dishes, including this mini keto pizza recipe!

Step 4: At this point, you can personalize the personal pan keto pizza with your favorite toppings such as pepperoni, ham, bacon, sausage, mushrooms, peppers, onions, olives, etc.

Step 5: As long as your skillet is oven safe, the last step is to pop it in the oven so all the cheesy goodness can melt into the pizza and the toppings can bake. I also like to add ground beef, bacon, and ham to make it taste like a meat lovers pizza, but I often stick with pepperoni for simplicity.

Tip: You can slice the pepperonis in quarters to cover more of the surface area of the pizza if you are a pepperoni lover like my hubby and kids.

Yum! I can’t tell you how happy I was when I pulled this out of the oven. Pizza is one of my very favorite foods, but after trying several recipes for pizza crusts that turned out like wet paper towels, I was ready to give up. This low-carb pizza crust turned out nice and sturdy.

Step 6: Add a little Italian seasoning and fresh basil, and you’ve got a keto pizza that looks like it is from your favorite pizza restaurant.

Keto Pizza Crust Recipe

Unlike typical fathead dough which uses cream cheese, the main components of this pizza dough are simply mozzarella cheese, almond flour, and egg yolk. Let’s take a look at how to make it.

To make the pizza crust: combine the mozzarella cheese, almond flour, garlic powder, and salt and stir until well blended in a microwavable-safe bowl. Microwave for 25 seconds.

Easy

Knead the dough with your hands for a few seconds. Add the egg yolk while the dough is still warm. Knead until everything is combined and roll it into a ball.

Vegan Keto Pizza Crust

Form a disk as if you were making a hamburger patty. Place the dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet and use your hands to press it into a circle 5 to 6 inches in diameter and about ¼ inch thick (or use a rolling pin). If the dough cools too much to form properly, place it back in the microwave for 10 seconds.

Use a fork to poke holes in several places throughout the crust before baking. Bake on the top rack of the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, until the crust is golden brown.

Remove the crust from the oven and flip it over. Top the flatter side with the pizza sauce and sprinkle with half of the cheese. Next, add the pepperoni slices, then sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake for another 3 to 4 minutes, until the cheese has melted.
