    What is fat head pizza?

    Fat Head Pizza recipe collage
    Quick and easy fathead pizza recipe

    Fathead pizza crust uses an easy low carb keto dough made from mozzarella cheese, almond flour or coconut flour.

    This simple pizza dough recipe is perfect if you are an absolute beginner. It's a crowd-pleaser, it's perfect for mid-week family dinners and the supreme Friday night pizza night recipe.

    Once you master mozzarella dough, you will discover there are so many different ways to use it.

    It's the perfect low carb pizza crust to keep you on track with your macro goals whether you follow a low-carb diet, keto diet or lazy keto diet.

    Why is this the best keto pizza?

    It's the most popular low-carb keto pizza crust because once you learn how to make fathead pizza crust, you can use the pizza dough recipe in so many low carb recipes. It's incredibly delicious and versatile. You can even make pizza pancakes or cheeseburger pizza too.

    I like to make chili fat head crackers, keto bread sticks, and even keto pizza scrolls.

    Why is it called is fathead pizza?

    Fat Head is a comedy-documentary by Tom Naughton (comedian and former health writer). Well, actually, for anyone who doesn’t know, fathead pizza dough was created by Tom Naughton’s oldest brother’s oldest son.

    The documentary explains how low cholesterol is unhealthy as well as saturated fat does not cause heart disease but instead of sugars, grains, starches, and processed vegetable oils do.

    Ever since it has been named in honor of his Fat Head Movie.

    Nutrition

    Here's how the nutrition of a traditional homemade thin crust wheat-based pizza crust recipe compares to a fat head crispy crust. Toppings are additional.

    Nutrition of wheat-based pizza crust (1 slice): 18.9 g carbs, 8.8 g protein, 7.4 g fat.
    Nutrition of fathead keto pizza crust (1 slice): 2.4 g net carbs, 11 g protein, 16.8 g fat.

    Nutritional values from cronometer.com

    In addition, the regular pizza will contain gluten, and if store-bought, it will also have preservatives, artificial flavorings, and probably some trans fats.

    Also, remember- you will probably only eat 1 or 2 slices of fathead pizza compared to half to 1 regular pizza.

    Can I overeat keto pizza? 

    Does an entire pizza normally disappear before your eyes?

    When you eat traditional pizza with a wheat base, do you eat and eat and eat and cannot stop at just one or two slices? Yeah, I've done that too.

    But, I'll admit it...there is no way you can over-eat with fathead pizza. And that's part of the way that the low-carb keto diet works. By increasing the fat content in your meals, makes you fuller faster. You eat less and so the weight loss will follow.

    Fathead pizza is incredibly rich, but that’s the point. You cannot overindulge. Most people can only handle one, or possibly two, slices. Add a side salad and you’ve got a great Friday night movie meal! 

    Ingredients

    mixing cheese and almond flour to make simple fat head pizza
    Ingredients for a simple fathead pizza base

    This low-carb pizza crust is grain-free, gluten-free, low-carb, and incredibly filling.

    The homemade pizza crust recipe is made from the following simple low-carb ingredients:

    • Pre-shredded/grated cheese - pre shredded mozzarella cheese is the best, but a mild cheese will also work
    • Cream cheese - it makes the pizza crust a little more softer than a straight cheese crust
    • Egg - makes the crust light and soft, but may be omitted for those who have an egg allergy
    • Almond flour - you can also use coconut flour instead of almond flour

    All quantities, ingredients, and instructions are in the recipe card below.

    My children love this recipe and prefer a fathead pizza crust to regular pizza dough. They even make it themselves.

    How to swap almond flour for coconut flour

    For those who have an almond allergy, or want to lower the carb count of a slice of pizza, you can easily substitute coconut flour. Coconut flour is much lower in carbs than almond flour.

    A pizza made with coconut flour is slightly sturdier than an almond flour pizza. Most readers say it doesn't taste of coconut but it depends on how sensitive you are.

    Simply swap 1 ¾ cup almond flour (or almond meal) with ¼ cup (4 tbsp) coconut flour. If it's your first time baking with coconut flour and almond flour, you may need to read my guide to low-carb flours.

    • A bowl of pizza toppings ready to place on the pizza base
      Add all your favourite toppings
    • A whole Fat Head pizza sitting on the baking tray ready to cut
      Sprinkle with more cheese
    • A fat head pizza sitting on a wore cooling rack
      Bake until golden
    • Sliced fat head pizza sitting on a wire cooling rack with a pizza cutter
      Slice, serve, enjoy.

    Instructions

    This is one of the easiest ways to make fathead pizza! Let me show you EXACTLY how to make a simple fathead pizza dough with a step-by-step process.

    The entire recipe is in a printable recipe card at the bottom of the post.

    STEP 1: Make the keto pizza dough

    Place the shredded mozzarella and cream cheese with your chosen low-carb flour into a microwave-safe bowl and heat on high for 1 minute.

    mixing cheese and almond flour to make simple fat head pizza

    Once the cheeses are melted, mix them together.

    mix the melted cheeses to make a pizza dough

    Add the raw egg, seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix again to form a cheesy dough.

    adding the eggs and seasoning to the pizza dough

    You now have the simple fathead dough, mozzarella cheese dough.

    how to make simple fat head pizza

    STEP 2: Make the pizza base

    Roll the fathead pizza dough between two sheets of baking parchment paper, into a circular pizza shape. You can roll it thin to make a thin crispy pizza base, or a deep pan dish. You can use a rolling pin, a wine bottle, a coffee mug, or even the bottom of a measuring cup.

    If your fathead dough begins to stick, use a flat knife or wet hands to scrape the dough away from the parchment paper. You must use baking parchment or another form of non-stick baking paper for this recipe.

    roll out the dough between two baking sheets


    Remove the top sheet of parchment paper and place the low-carb pizza base onto a pizza stone, baking tray, baking sheet, or pizza tray.

    Press all over the pizza with a fork to make small holes. This ensures your pizza base is cooked evenly and crispy.

    Bake the crust in a hot oven. Using the baking paper, flip the pizza over mid-way during cooking so it goes crispy on both sides.

    pressing a fork all over the pizza base

    Step 3: Add your pizza toppings

    Cover the cooked low-carb keto fathead pizza with a sugar-free tomato pizza sauce or low-sugar tomato paste. Add your favorite toppings. Ensure any meat you use is already cooked. The pizza will go back into the oven just to reheat the base and to melt the cheese topping.

    How to bake thin crispy keto pizza

    The trick is to roll out the mozzarella dough super thin using 2 sheets of baking parchment as shown in the step-by-step instructions and cooking video.

    TOP TIP: Press a fork over the base to make little indentations to allow the keto pizza crust to cook evenly AND turn the low carb keto pizza base over mid cooking so it cooks and bake the crust on both sides.

    Always preheat the oven. This guarantees a super crispy thin pizza crust that is golden brown.

    Air fryer

    How to cook a pizza in the air fryer? It's quick and easy and perfect if you don't want to cook your pizza crust in the oven.

    If you don't know how to use an air fryer, it's super simple and is a handy addition to your low-carb kitchen.

    1. Heat your air fryer to 190C/375F.
    2. Cut a circle of baking parchment paper that is large enough to line your air fryer basket or wire rack. Ensure there is a gap between the pizza base on the baking parchment and the sides of the basket. This will allow the air flow at high speed to circulate.
    3. Roll your pizza and place onto the lined tray/basket.
    4. It's almost impossible to prepare your pizza and to transfer it to your air fryer without all the topings falling to the floor. So add your toppings to the pizza once the rolled pizza dough is placed inside the basket.
    5. Cook for 7-10 minutes, or until golden.

    If you love using your air fryer, I have 101 keto air fryer recipes for you to choose from (chicken, pork, ground beef, salmon, vegetables, and even desserts). Discover how to use your air fryer plus FREE printable air fryer cooking cheat sheets.

    Toppings

    After you make the fathead pizza crust, you can add all your favorite pizza toppings.

    Here are some ideas for you:

    • Tomato paste (unsweetened) or a sugar-free tomato sauce
    • Sugar-free BBQ sauce
    • Mushrooms
    • Cherry tomatoes
    • Salami/pepperoni
    • Cooked sausage meat
    • Spinach with a cracked egg on top
    • Sun-dried tomatoes
    • Rosemary, oregano, thyme, sage, garlic powder, Italian seasoning
    • More shredded cheese

    Storage

    Once the almond flour pizza base has been baked, then you can store it in the freezer for up to 2 months. Wrap in a piece of parchment and place in an airtight container or large ziplock bag to prevent "freezer burn".

    You cannot store the unbaked pizza dough because the raw egg has been warmed by the melting cheese. The pizza dough MUST be cooked before storing.

    Any leftover pizza (I know, that's surely impossible) can be stored in a similar way. Wrap in parchment paper and place in an airtight container or large ziplock bag in the fridge for up to 3 days.

    More fathead mozzarella dough recipes

    Once you master the fathead dough (which isn’t difficult to do), you should try some of these other keto recipes: 

    • Keto pizza pockets (hot pockets)
    • Fathead crackers
    • Green fathead pizza
    • Fathead nachos
    • Fathead sausage rolls
    • Fathead bread sticks

    So, next time you make fathead pizza dough, my top tip – double the recipe quantities, then you are ready to go and make one of these fathead recipes as well.

    It's the quick and easy way to meal prep.

    Recipe FAQ

    Do I need a microwave to make fathead pizza?

    A microwave makes it easy to melt the mozzarella and cream cheese but you can also melt them in a saucepan on a medium-heat. Be careful to stir so the cheese doesn't burn. Alternatively, use a double boiler to melt the cheese together.

    Can I swap almond flour for coconut flour?

    Yes. You can swap 1 ¾ cup almond flour (or almond meal) with ¼ cup (4 tbsp) coconut flour. If it's your first time baking with coconut flour and almond flour, you may need to read my guide to low-carb flours.

    Can I freeze fathead pizza?

    Yes, the low-carb pizza crust can be frozen once it is cooked. You cannot freeze the raw pizza dough.

    How many carbs per slice of keto pizza?

    Serving size 1 slice (in the recipe card below) is 2.4 g net carbs. Toppings are additional. Most members in my Facebook group tell me they tend to eat 2 or 3 slices of the low-carb pizza crust.

    Do I need a rolling pin?

    No, I have often used a wine bottle, a coffee mug, or the back or a measuring cup.

    What is fathead dough made of?

    Mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, almond flour or coconut flour and egg, and some seasoning.

    Does fathead dough reheat well?

    The best way to reheat any pizza is to place it in a hot oven for 5 minutes. You can microwave pizza but it will end up soggy and soft.

    Does fathead pizza crust taste good?

    100% yes! This simple fathead pizza crust recipe is the BEST pizza you will ever taste.

    How do I reduce the carbs in pizza?

    You can use coconut flour instead of almond flour to make the pizza base even lower in carbs and high in fiber. Make sure you use a sugar-free tomato pizza sauce and only use low-carb vegetables. And of course, no pineapple.

    What do I do if fat head pizza is too sticky?

    Add 1 additional tablespoon of almond flour or coconut flour, depending on which flour you made the pizza dough with.

    What do I do if fat head pizza is too dry?

    You might have added too much flour, in this case, add 1 teaspoon of olive oil at a time and knead the dough until it becomes soft and pliable again.

    What are the best ways to use fat head dough?

    You can make vegetarian green fat head pizza, cheeseburger pizza, nacho chips, fat head sausage rolls and even pizza pancakes.

    Ingredients

    • 170 g (1 ¾ cups) shredded/grated cheese mozzarella is the best or Edam/mild cheese
    • 85 g (¾ cups) almond meal/flour
    • 2 tablespoon cream cheese
    • 1 eggs - medium
    • pinch salt to taste
    • ½ teaspoon dried rosemary/ garlic or other flavourings optional
    • your choice of toppings such as pepperoni peppers, cherry tomatoes, olives, ground/mince beef, mushrooms, herbs etc

    Equipment

    • Silicone baking sheets
    • Baking sheets - non stick
    • Mixing bowls

    Instructions

    • Mix the shredded/grated cheese and almond flour/meal in a microwaveable bowl. Add the cream cheese. Microwave on HIGH for 1 minute.
    • Stir then microwave on HIGH for another 30 seconds.
    • Add the egg, salt, rosemary and any other flavourings, mix gently.
    • Place in between 2 pieces of baking parchment/paper and roll into a circular pizza shape (see photos above). Remove the top baking paper/parchment. If the mixture hardens and becomes difficult to work with, pop it back in the microwave for 10-20 seconds to soften again but not too long or you will cook the egg.
    • Make fork holes all over the pizza base to ensure it cooks evenly.
    • Slide the baking paper/parchment with the keto pizza base, on a baking tray (cookie tray) or pizza stone, and bake at 220C/425F for 12-15 minutes, or until brown.
    • To make the base really crispy and sturdy, flip the pizza over (onto baking paper/parchment) once the top has browned.
    • Once cooked, remove from the oven and add all the toppings you like. Make sure any meat is already cooked as this time it goes back into the oven just to heat up the toppings and melt the cheese. Bake again at 220C/425F for 5 minutes.

    Notes

    Fat Head pastry can also be made by replacing the almond meal/flour with ¼ cup (4 tbsp) coconut flour.
    Nutrition panel is for base only as toppings will vary widely depending on what was added and how much.

      Amazing!!! Had to cook lunch for our farmer boys (one who is gluten free) and had run out of time…but this took no time at all! All the boys loved it and didn’t know it wasn’t a ‘real’ pizza base!

      Love this pizza! Been making it for a few years now. My family and friends love it. My question is has anyone tried freezing the dough. I do a lot of meal prepping , and I would love to make this ahead and freeze it. Just wondering how it has turned out. Would love to read some tips.

      I added 1/2 tsp of malt vinegar to give it a yeast flavor. Used Jack because it's cheaper than mozz. Coated the whole thing with olive oil because I like the flavor and it browned and crisped up beautifully. Baked 10 min., added toppings then another 10 min.

        Another change: the coconut flour version tasted too coconutty so I tried another one using coconut flour that I toasted in a pan first. That helped the flavor.

      Is it ok to use CarbQuik in place of flour? I’m new to the use of it and any conversion.

      Haven’t tried this yet, but in these instructions you put the almond flour in with the cheeses?? None of the other “fathead” recipes do this? Also, several comments on the dough rising-I have yet to have the fathead dough rise- what am I doing wrong?

        Yes, I put the almond flour in with the cheese, it makes it so much easier to mix it through easily. Sometimes the dough rises if you like a thick pizza crust - great! If you prefer it to be thin crust, then use a fork to make tiny holes all over the base which will prevent the pizza base from rising.

      I never comment on blogs, but I just had to!

      I'm at my first "real" try when it comes to low carb an I'm in week 3. I combine it with IF and so far it seems promising.

      Before switching I had the habit of eating a lot of pizza. during my last attempt I tried every cauliflower crust out there and It always ended in a mushy mess. Not Pizza in the slightest.

      Today I tried this recipe and It changed everything.
      Thin, delicious crust and an end result that acutally resembles pizza and tastes great.
      I normally eat a whole frozen pizza by myself - adter three slices of this one I was full to the brim.

      I will definitely try your other fathead dough recipes aswell.
      I'm so thankful.
      Thank you very much. Your blog made all the difference for me!!

      I am sure this may taste okay, but it's very hard for a British person to get around this American-style recipe of cups and approximations. Don't understand why you don't give precise weights like anyone else who markets to the international community, not just Americans. What size is a cup, and how much garlic salt. We don't do approximations. How much Almond Flour in weight? Sorry to be disappointed.

        I'm not sure why you gave it a 1 star when every recipe I take the time to calculate as both cups and grams. Simply use the red buttons above every recipe and you can switch to whichever system you prefer. I am a kiwi and we use grams, but as 85% of my readers are from the US, I also pop cups in there to help them with their preferred baking method.

          I'm always surprised by how many people don't see those big red buttons. Thought your moving it to the top of the recipe would help. Mine always defaults to metric so not sure how it was a problem for this person. I am in the US but mainly use metric especially after someone (maybe you) said it was more accurate w things like almond and coconut flour. But I do appreciate your providing both. When I print out the recipes I always go back and add the US measurements to the page just in case I can't find my food scale, LOL.

        I'm from India and literally, the first thing I look for is the big buttons to turn it to a metric system, funny how you missed it and decided to rate the recipe one star. At least try the recipe before and converting things is just a google search away, it does not require you to do any math on your own since most websites will convert ingredients with a simple google search.

        I too, am sometimes disappointed when I see a recipe I think I would like to make, but the measurements aren't in my everyday measurements.I might have to do a little more work to convert amounts, that's ok, this person went to the trouble of posting the recipe. If you can't be troubled, fine but don't give them 1 star just because you don't get it.
        And these are not "approximations" these are actual measurements. It's a big world out there. Not everyone does everything the way you do.

      I absolutely love this dough...I now make the base into a square and cut it up to make sandwiches- had my first vegemite sandwich in ages and omg it was so good. Have made bagels and sausage rolls as well. I am very impressed with the taste. Going to have a go at making a sweet crispy base for a sort of strawberry flan dessert 🙂

      EXCELLENT!!!

      I'm in the U.S. and my favorite pizza is a Pizza Hut Pan Pizza. I knew this wouldn't be the same but it's amazing how good it really is. I told my friend I was making pizza crust that's mostly mozz cheese and almond flour and she said it was a "crazy sounding pizza". Sent her pics and she was like, "that looks so good". I went very basic w the seasonings and just sausage and cheese on top. Now I can experiment for different flavor options.

      I didn't find this sticky or hard to work with at all. I followed the recipe by weight and did flip it after about 8 minutes. I would do the exact same again

      Thank you for sharing. I can't wait to try the other recipes w this dough

      Made this over the weekend, and OMG!! So good. I did have to lower my oven temp to 375, as my first attempt burned. I also forgot to prick with a fork the first time around so there was a HUGE burned bubble in the middle. I just started over, lowered the temp, and my second try was perfect!!! SO nice to be able to have some low carb pizza!! Can't wait to try the nachos!!! Thanks so much for this recipe!!

      Hi! I tried this recipe tonight and the taste was amazing! Even better than expected.. sadly though— my pizza realllllyyyy stuck to the parchment paper! It was impossible to separate and I ended up having to scrape/eat around the paper. Any ideas on why this happened? I’m wondering if I would’ve been better off just cooking directly on the pizza stone. Hoping to TRH again soon!

      Thank you so much for posting this recipe. I am on a low carb diet week two. I was craving something filling and pizza like that I almost fell off the wagon until I found this recipe. I followed instructions with shredded mozarella and it came out perfect. Looked and tasted just like a real pizza. Topped with more cheese and feta, mushrooms and pepperoni. I still feel full 4 hours later. Life save thank you so much! Pretty affordable with the exception of the almond flour. If you have a food processor that can turn your almond into powder it may be a cheaper alternative then buying the flour.

      Thank the gods I found this recipe! Been on keto about a month and some recipes are hit and miss and it takes reviews to see if its worth trying...this one had good reviews so I gave it a go. My crust did come up as cooking even though I poked tons of holes all over but I just jabbed it real quick with a fork and it deflated. I also cooked some onions/peppers/garlic on the stove and added that with olives and pepperoni and some sharp cheddar as that's what I had and it was delicious! I got 8 slices out of the recipe as is...and I ate 2 and hubby demolished the rest. This is assuredly going to become a new staple in our house...I love that its so easy and tasty and bendable just like a real pizza!

      Thank you SO much for this! 🙂

      Well, this is fantastic. The only thing I recommend is cooking it on the lowest oven rack. 14 minutes and no flipping. I never thought this would not get soggy. I like "garbage" pizza. I cooked some larger pieces of onion, garlic and green pepper in EVO and then poured in some tomato sause. I used this to top pizza and then added some cooked shrimp, jarred asparagus and cooked mushrooms. Then I spinkled oregano, mozzerella, and cheddar on it. I cut it with a pizza cutter when done and a piece came out with a perfect point and NO folding up!! Unbelieveable! Tasted great! Am still amazed!! It was darn easy , too.

          It says that the almond flour can be replaced with 1/4 cup of coconut flour... but do you mean 1/4 cup of the almond can be replaced with coconut? Or that the whole almond flour amount - 3/4 cup - can be replaced with just 1/4 cup of coconut?

            Thank you for asking this question. The instructions are a little vague because the quantity for the almond flour is more than 1/4 cup. I think if the wording was a bit clearer, perhaps like, "To use coconut flour instead of almond flour, replace the total amount of almond flour (the entire 3/4 cup) with 1/4 cup coconut flour. Coconut flour acts differently than almond flour and you do not need as much." Or something to that effect.

            Thank you for this great recipe! Don't mean to be picky, just offering some help because I see now that my brain isn't the only one that needed more clarity. Thanks again! 😀

        I think I may be answering your question too late as it came in over the weekend. I hope this helps. Food safety really depends on a number of factors. The temperature of your kitchen (summer or winter), was it left out where flies or insects may have landed, was it left out for 1-2 hours or all day 12 hours? Then there is the question of reheating it. It needs to be in an oven with a hot temperature to heat the pizza but to also kill any possible bacteria. And how quickly will you be cooking it again after you left it out of the fridge?

      What I have found to be the best recipe for this fat head dough is:

      2 cups mozzarella shredded cheese
      1 cup almond
      flour
      2 TBS cream cheese
      1 egg
      dash if salt

      This makes a less stickier dough and it turns out perfect every time. I add (depending on what I'm making), garlic powder, caraway seeds (for rye flavor). Microwave the first 4 ingredients for 2 minutes. Remove from oven, stir down, add seeds. Sir a little bit, then crack egg on the side, whip a little, then incorporate it all together. I use my hands to mix it making it all come together in a nice non sticky dough. I either make pizza dough, or pinch off 4 equal parts to make buns, shaping them with my hands.

          If you do the math then the shredded cheese should be 221g and the almond flour 113g.
          That 170 divided by 7 so 27.7 grams per 1/4 cup. now multiply that by 8 for 2 cups so its 221g and the almond flour 113 divided by 3 is 28.33 times 4 for the full cup is 113.33

        August 20, 2018 at 11:18 am

        Possibly. From a food safety point of view, you will need to cook the raw dough by the next day. You don't want raw eggs that have been warmed (when mixing with the melted cheese) sitting around for too long. Keep the raw dough in the fridge, wrapped or in an airtight container so it doesn't dry out. But the bigger problem is that the cheese dough will need to become soft again so it may be rolled out to become a pizza base. It will either need bringing up to a warm room temperature, or slightly reheat the dough, but you run the risk of the egg cooking. An alternative would be to make the dough, roll it out, then place the uncooked pizza base in the fridge. That would solve problem #2. Many people have successfully cooked and frozen the cooked base for a quick and easy ready-meal. All you need to do is add your favourite toppings.

      Yeah! I made my first fathead pizza!
      I finished mixing the dough by hand (checking it wasn't too hot first) as I got frustrated trying to incorporate the eggs with a spoon, worked out a charm (I love putting my hand in any dough, had to 'feel' this one too!).
      Then I made the beginner's mistake to forget to pick the dough with a fork before putting it in the oven and it rose quite high! 😀 Unfazed I just pushed it down, flipped it, picked it on the other side and got it golden both sides.
      Easy toppings with my 3 years old who always wants to participate.
      We all loved it, my husband was impressed about how better it tasted compared to our usual frozen one (no wonder!) but he said he found the crust a bit stuffy... when I told him what it was he went on eating all his edges...! 😀
      Very happy to have a healthier version that is also tastier! a bit more effort and planning (I don't usually have grated mozzarella in my fridge) but will surely become one of out staples now!

      I was a bit skeptical, as no matter what, there is a difference with the keto recipes I use compared to the real thing. That being said, this was fantastic. I raised the amount of ingredients in order to get 8 slices for four people, and it turned out great. I can barely tell a difference, and the difference is great. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe. I used almond flour that only had 1 net g of carbs per serving, so the whole pizza had 14 net g. I have already shared this among my family and friends who are also keto.

            It's for the cheese-melting part of the directions. My brother and I made a similar fathead pizza crust recipe, and we melted the cheese in a non-stick skillet over low heat till the cheese incorporates and becomes liquid and stir-able.

      There are so many ads and pop ups that its painful to get to the actual recipe or video. I can't even tell what is your content and what is an ad.

            I've been to this page numerous times and oddly, sometimes the video is at the top like a photo that eventually begins to move if you don't scroll past too quickly. Other times, it's not here at all. So here is the link.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmE3slXwKmk . Paste it into your address bar if there isn't a hyperlink

        I just did tonight on my first dough, and though the crust was too thin and flimsy, I think that was because I rolled it too thin, not because of the mat.

        One thing that was cool about using the mat is, it's easier to flip over. Here's what I did. I had the silicone mat on my cookie sheet, and baked it side A up. Then took it out, put my 2nd mat on top of the crust, and laid my 2nd cookie sheet upside down on top of that, so it was a stack of cookie sheet / mat / crust / mat / cookie sheet. Flipped the whole thing. Took off cookie sheet #1, put it away (since the mat keeps my cookie sheets so clean!), peeled off the silicone mat, then popped the whole thing in the oven for cooking side B.

        Also, when I first pulled the dough out of the bowl and onto the first silicone mat, I put the 2nd mat on top of it and rolled it out so easily by rolling the rolling pin on top of the top mat. Easy peasy. I just rolled it too thin.

      Hi. I'm fairly new at this and I'm having a problem that I don't understand. Love the taste of the the dough but everything I make with it seems to melt into a flat mess upon baking.
      I just made the pizza scrolls, following your recipe and cook temp and time. They looked beautiful going into the oven, and came out as a flat pizza crust.
      What am I doing wrong? Please help!

        I had the exact same issue! This was the 2nd low carb pizza crust recipe that I tried, and I was really disappointed. It was like the toppings and crust just melded together. There was no crust anymore, just a melted mess!

          Did you completely cook the crust before you put the toppings on it?

        If your mozzarella is watery it will spread like crazy. Happened to me the first time I tried to make pizza pockets, big flat mess. Most mozzarella in Australia has a high water content so to combat it I use about a third of the cheese measurement in mozzarella and then the rest I fill with a hard cheese mix of Colby, tasty etc. Works a treat. It's quite strong in flavour so you don't need to add as much cheese on top, I put slices of boccocini instead. Om Nom Nom Nom Nom

      For 4 years I have tried all kinds of recipes for a delicious gluten-free pizza. Thanks to your recent post, I have FINALLY found the one to use forever. Even my pepperoni pizza loving husband said this is the best one yet! I used 8 oz. of chopped baby bellas that I wilted in the microwave to get rid of some moisture with 3 mini peppers, topped with a small amount of Parmesan cheese - best pizza ever. I have really missed that crunch in a crust after using big portabellos for my pizza base and a few less than great crust substitutions (cauliflower was the worst crust and I love it as a veggie). Thank you!!!

      Just started on a keto diet and was getting a miffed at how nasty my 'bread' i made tasted.

      However - this fat head recipe is the bomb! Try it - it really is better than the real thing! And i'm a true beer and pizza man!

        I love this recipe! I made hamburger buns today using the same recipe but omitting the spices except I added some garlic powder. I rolled it out used a hamburger size saucer or small bowl. Used the edge of the bowl for my pattern. I cut out 4 hamburger tops. There was a little left over so I rolled it in a ball and placed it on the cookie sheet. Baked the burgers tops at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. They turned out perfect. My husband said "heh, what do you know, the bread didn't fall apart!" With the little piece that was leftover, I spread some butter on it and ate it. I used parchment paper to bake the buns - no sticking! Tomorrow I'm going to use the same recipe but use a dinner plate as a pattern for a tortilla. Endless ideas for this recipe!

      The dough tastes good, but it stuck to the pan so I had to scoop the pieces out with a spoon and some force. Did I miss something? Should I have oiled the pan first? Maybe some flour on the pan? I know it may sound like common sense if that is true, but I tend to follow the recipe very closely the first few times to understand where the author is coming from. Even though mine could have been served in a bowl I did still enjoy it. It is pizza after all! Thanks for posting!

        You must use parchment paper so the dough does not stick. I also spray the parchment paper with oil. The pizza dough will slide right off. Don't forget to tap holes in the top of the dough with a fork prior to baking the dough. This will prevent it from puffing up during baking. I also bake my dough at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Turns out perfect each time.

        You have to use parchment paper. Not wax paper or anything else. It never sticks.
