Keto Friendly Pizza

Even when a family is eating keto, sometimes they still want pizza. Most of the time, this calls for “Fathead” dough but I decided to go with a simple recipe with just 5 ingredients.Ingredients:

Pizza Crusts

• • 2 cups Super-Fine Natural Almond Flour
  • 2 cups Almond Flour/Meal*(I now just use all 4 Cups of fine flour and no meal or 2 cups of almond flour and 2 cups finely processed pork rinds)*

• • 4 tbsp Ghee

• • 5 large Eggs
  • 1/2 tsp Sea salt
  • Approximately 2 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil

• Pizza Sauce
  • 15 oz. can Organic Tomato Sauce
  • 8 oz. can Organic Tomato Paste
  • 2 cloves garlic mashed with Sea Salt
  • Italian Seasoning to taste
  • Rosemary to taste (I grind mine fresh with a mortar and pestle but you can use whatever type you like)
• Pizza Toppings
  • Shredded Mozzarella
  • Pepperoni
  • Italian Sausage (Browned)
  • Green Olives
  • Jalapenos

(* I now use 4 Cups of the Fine Flour and no Meal or fine flour and pork rinds *)

Method:

• Pizza Crusts
  • Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees
  • Mix almond flour and almond flour/meal in a large bowl (If using 2 types)
  • Mix salt, ghee, 4 eggs and the yolk of the 5th egg together to form a ball
  • Place parchment paper into a #8 Skillet and a #10 skillet, 2 #10 Skillets , or Cast Iron Pizza Pans depending on desired crust thickness
  • Grease the parchment paper and skillet sides with your fat of choice (I use lard)
  • Spread the dough in the pans on the parchment paper and form a lip around the edge to contain the sauce
  • Dock the dough (prick with a fork) to keep it from bubbling up
  • Par-bake the crusts 18 minutes until browned (You may have to dock the dough more, it really likes to seal up and bubble more)
  • Remove the pans with the crusts
  • Brush the tops of the crusts with olive oil and top to your liking

*Edit*

For the pizza crust, I have been changing things up striving for perfection. I now use:

• 5 eggs and 2 yolks instead of 4:2
• 2 cups of almond flour
• 2 cups (after food processor, 2 bags before…) plain or spicy pork rinds
• Pre-heat pan to 450 degrees
• Carefully press dough into pre-heated pan

*Edit*

• Pizza Sauce
  • Mix tomato sauce, tomato paste, garlic, Italian seasoning and rosemary in a cast iron skillet
  • Simmer while the pizza crusts par-bake
• For these pizzas
  • Pizza one
    • Pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese, green olives, pickled jalapenos
  • Pizza two
    • Pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese, Italian sausage, pepperoni
• Turn the oven temperature up to 450 degrees
• Bake the pizzas 10-15 minutes or until the cheese melts and just starts to brown
• Remove from the oven and let set a few minutes, slice, and enjoy!
