Ingredients

Keto Pizza Crust

1 ½ cups almond flour 150g
¼ cup coconut flour 30g
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp salt
2 large eggs
⅓ cup warm water 80ml
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 30ml

Toppings

½ cup sugar-free tomato sauce 120ml
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried basil
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese 100g
2 medium tomatoes, thinly sliced 150g
¼ cup fresh basil leaves 10g
Salt and pepper, to taste
Drizzle of extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a pizza stone or baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt.
Add eggs, warm water, and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.
Place the dough between two pieces of parchment paper and roll out to your desired thickness for a 12-inch pizza base.
Remove the top parchment paper and transfer the bottom sheet with the dough onto the prepared pizza stone or baking sheet.
Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes, or until it begins to turn golden brown.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the tomato sauce evenly over the surface, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, and then arrange the tomato slices on top of the cheese.
Season with dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and pepper, to taste.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the edges are crisp.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves and a drizzle of olive oil before slicing and serving.

Notes

For an even more authentic Italian flavor, consider adding a few slices of high-quality prosciutto or a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese before baking.

Ensure your tomato sauce is sugar-free to keep the carbs as low as possible.

If you prefer a crispier crust, bake the pizza base for an additional 2-3 minutes before adding toppings.
