All About Fathead Crust
Even though “traditional” pizza dough is loaded with carbs, you can still enjoy pizza on keto diet thanks to the wonder that is Fathead crust!
Fathead crust is a keto “dough” made out of mozzarella, cream cheese, egg, and almond flour – ingredients that contain lots of healthy fats and nutrients to keep you satisfied!
This Fathead crust recipe can be used for pizzas, sandwiches, flatbreads, and even calzones - essentially anywhere you'd typically have bread.
Making Fathead Crust
Have you ever made a low-carb keto Fathead pizza crust? If not, it is unbelievably easy!!
All you need to do is microwave the mozzarella and cream cheese until they are melted. And then mix the melted cheese mixture with an egg and almond flour until a dough forms.
Knead the dough with your hands, spreading and folding it in half repeatedly until incorporated.
Roll out the dough between two layers of parchment paper. Remove the top layer of parchment and then transfer the crust to a baking sheet and bake at 425°F for about 12 minutes or until lightly browned.
That's it! It will look and taste just like “real” pizza dough!
Classic BLT Toppings
We are topping the crispy Fathead crust with bacon, lettuce, tomato, mozzarella, and a delicious creamy sauce.
The sauce is made of a combination of mayo and sour cream, which pairs perfectly on a BLT pizza.
We also sprinkle some fresh basil over top to provide a burst of vibrant flavor.
Put It All Together
Assemble the Keto BLT Pizza by spreading the mayo-sour cream sauce on the crust and then topping it with the mozzarella, bacon and tomatoes.
Bake again at 425°F for a few minutes or until cheese is melted.
Quick Keto Pizza Tips Before Your Get Started
Here is a quick list of pro tips to help you as you make your pizza:
- Make sure to both knead and roll out your dough! Don't skip these steps.
- Be careful not to add to much sauce to your crust. Otherwise it will be soggy.
- Under cook your bacon slightly, since it will be put in the oven with the pizza and cook further.
- For the lettuce, we used baby kale. But feel free to use whatever greens you have available.
