Fathead Dough – Pizza

This dough is so versatile. I've used it to make pizza crusts, keto bagels, keto hotdog buns (or more like pigs in a blanket). The key to this recipe is to make sure the almond flour is completely mixed in with the cheese so that you don't get clumps of flour when you bite into the dough.

You can make these as thin or thick as you want. They keep their shape and can hold up to having toppings and cheese loaded on top without falling apart. And it's super easy too. You can have Keto pizza without guilt in about 25 minutes or less — faster than it takes to order pizza and have it delivered!

​Ingredients (Dough):
1 cup almond flour (I recommend this one)
1  1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 oz cream cheese
1 egg
Pinch of salt
Pizza Sauce (We love Rao's. Try it here.)
Toppings of your choice.

Optional Seasoning:
You can add 1/2 tsp of any of the below spices to give your crust a boost of flavor:

• Garlic powder
• Italian Seasoning
• Everything but the bagel seasoning (Get it here)

Directions:

1. In a microwave safe bowl, stir together mozzarella cheese, cream cheese and almond flour.
2. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir, then microwave again for 30seconds - 1 minute.
3. Add an egg to the mixture and stir together until fully combined. Be patient and use those muscles! The dough will be thick and slightly sticky. If the dough is too sticky, add a tbsp of almond flour at a time.
4. In between 2 parchment paper, roll out the dough into a circular pizza crust shape 
5. Preheat your oven to 320°. Pre-cook your crust in the oven for 8-10 minutes.
6. Remove the crust, add sauce and toppings. Return to oven for another 10-15 minutes.
7. TIP: Eat this dough when its warm. If you wait until its cold, the dough will get tough. But not to worry, just reheat it slightly and you'll be good to go!
