Make a satisfying, low-carb pizza crust using the popular Fathead dough method with only four main ingredients. This crust bakes up firm and holds toppings well.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups shredded low-moisture mozzarella cheese
  • 2 ounces cream cheese, cut into cubes
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup almond flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Combine the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 60 seconds, then stir. Microwave for another 30 seconds and stir until the cheese is fully melted and combined.
  3. Add the egg and almond flour to the melted cheese mixture. Mix well until a uniform dough forms. This may take a few minutes of kneading by hand.
  4. Place the dough ball between two sheets of parchment paper. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough out into a circle or rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
  5. Remove the top sheet of parchment paper. Poke the dough all over with a fork to prevent large bubbles.
  6. Bake the crust for 8 to 10 minutes, or until it starts to turn light golden brown.
  7. Remove the crust from the oven. Add your desired low-carb toppings.
  8. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese topping is melted and bubbly.

Notes

  • For a crispier crust, bake the crust for an extra 2-3 minutes before adding toppings.
  • You can substitute coconut flour for almond flour, but use only 1/2 cup, as coconut flour absorbs more liquid.
  • This dough can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days before rolling out.
