Mozzarella Dough Recipe (AKA Fat Head Dough)

The original recipe for mozzarella dough was called Fat Head dough. Why? Because Tom Naughton first published the recipe, and he is the creator of Fat Head, the movie. So credit where credit is due. Tom’s recipe is now infamous in the low-carb and keto world.

Scroll below and you can see all the recipes I have created using this classic keto dough.

You simply melt mozzarella dough with some cream cheese, then mix in your choice of low-carb flour and an egg, then roll out in between two sheets of baking parchment.

How To Make Keto Pizza Scrolls

Once you have the mozzarella dough rolled out, spread all your favourite pizza toppings inside, roll it up, then slice into small slices.

Suggested pizza scroll fillings:

• no added sugar tomato paste (tomato paste is very strong flavoured, so it only adds a few carbs to the nutrition values)
• favourite meat such as ham, pepperoni, or salami
• shredded/grated cheese
• herbs such as oregano, rosemary, thyme

Next, place each keto pinwheel onto a lined baking tray, and bake at220C/425F for 15 minutes. And why not sprinkle with even more cheese or herbs before baking? It will turn into a yummy crispy topping.

This recipe can also suit your preference whether you would like to use almond or coconut flour. Now, all that’s left is what you’ll top them with! So, go on and get creative!
