Fathead Pizza

Fathead Pizza is a must if you're going to stay satisfied with KETO lifestyle. I make it once a week usually and it feeds me for several days. Get creative with toppings! I usually make 1/2 of this recipe because I like really thin crust. Rolled out thin it fits a medium size pizza pan.

Fathead Pizza

Crust:
1 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
3/4 cup almond meal or flour
2 Tbsp cream cheese
1 egg
pinch of salt
1/4 tsp Italian Seasoning

Toppings
4 Tbsp tomato paste
salt to taste
any other seasoning you like. I like to add red pepper flakes and garlic powder on top of tomato paste.
Now it's time for the "real toppings" Make sure you cook the meat (sausage/hamburger/chicken) thoroughly. Saute veggies for just a few minutes to tender, but still crisp. Top with parmesan/mozzarella cheese if desired

Directions:

In a microwavable safe bowl, combine shredded cheese, almond flour/meal and cream cheese. Microwave on High for 1 minute. Stir, return to microwave for 30 more seconds on high. Add egg, salt and Italian seasoning. Stir to combine.
Dough will be super sticky, turn out on a piece of parchment paper, cover with parchment paper and roll out into a circle or square to fit your pan. Once rolled out, remove top parchment paper and place paper and dough on baking sheet or pizza pan and bake on 425° for 10 minutes. Maybe 12 if you want it a little more brown. If you want the crust crispier, flip parchment paper over to brown other side about 1/2 way through the baking process.

Add all toppings/cheese and return to oven for 5 minutes just to heat toppings and melt cheese.

Enjoy!
