Low Carb Pizza Crust
A recipe for a keto friendly pizza dough that is egg and dairy free. Light and fluffy, this low carb crust is a great alternative to fathead and traditional pizza crusts.
Equipment
- Large Mixing Bowl
- Parchment Paper
- Pizza Stone/Baking sheet
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- ¼ cup Psyllium Husk
- ½ cup Almond Flour
- ½ cup Coconut Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- ¾ cup Warm water
Instructions
- Add all dry ingredients (psyllium husk, almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, baking soda) to a large mixing bowl and combine well.
- Add the wet ingredients (vinegar and warm water) to the dry ingredients and combine well. Allow the pizza dough to rest for at least 5 minutes to absorb the moisture before forming
- Layout parchment paper larger than the desired size of your finished pizza. Form the dough into a ball so it flattens evenly and cover with another large piece of parchment.
- Flatten/roll the dough between the parchment paper into a pizza crust about ¼" [6mm] thick. Peel back top layer of parchment paper, and wet your fingers to repair any cracks in your pizza crust. You can also clean up and pinch the edge for a raised pizza crust.
- Season with salt and pepper and bake in a 375°F [190°C] oven for 8-10 minutes until the crust is firm. Remove and cool for 5 minutes before topping with low carb pizza sauce, toppings and cheese.
- Bake topped pizza at 375°F [190°C] for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is cooked and ready. It's a good idea to let your cooked pizza rest out of the oven for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
