Learn how to use fathead dough to make the BEST and crispiest low-carb pizza crust. This low-carb alternative to pizza is great if you are on the keto diet or just want to cut back on carbs. With only 3 net carbs per slice, it is a carb lover’s dream!

This pizza can be made in less than 20 minutes, and there’s no need to wait for it to rise. It can be frozen before or after baking, which is great for when you don’t feel like making pizza. The dough is made with my version of “Fathead” dough, which I have been testing with different ratios and herbs to make my favorite NY-style pizza.

How to make fathead pizza with keto
To start, you’ll need 1 oz (2 tablespoons) of cream cheese and shredded mozzarella cheese. Melt the cream cheese and mozzarella in the microwave for 45 seconds, or until they are mostly melted. Now stir until all of the cream cheese is mixed in. It might seem hard at first, but it will soon make sense.

The next step is to just add the egg, almond flour, baking powder, and herbs. Mix until everything is combined. Even though the dough seems sticky, that’s fine.
