Fat Dough Pepperoni Pizza Recipe -

I was born and raised in New Jersey and my favorite food hands down was pizza. NJ pizza I am sure you’ve heard is just on another level. I moved out of NJ 25 years ago and haven’t had great pizza since. Now I have found a few places tolerable where I can still get a nice slice. The problem with that is pizza is very much NOT keto friendly.

I can’t speak for everyone who is on the keto diet. But for me I was not ready to give up pizza, whether it was NJ pizza or not. So I searched and found a few name brands that make keto approved premade dough. I’m going to be completely honest, some of those are overly expensive. So I figured why not get the ingredients and try to make it myself. Again being completely transparent it came out pretty good for my first time making it. I have to warn you though cold keto pizza the next day does not taste anything like cold next day regular pizza. So eat it while it’s hot!

Ingredients

Two oz cream cheese
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella
1 egg, beaten
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/3 cup almond flour

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425°
In a small bowl, add your cream cheese and mozzarella.
Microwave on high for 20 seconds at a time until it’s melted.
Add your remaining ingredients to the melted cheese.
Mix as well as you can. It does get a tad bit odd here, because mozzarella turns to a big glob when melted. It’s ok, it will work together.
Grease a pizza pan, spread dough out into a 1/2″ thick circle.
Bake for 10 minutes
Remove and top with your pepperoni
Bake an additional 3 to 4 minutes
Remove and enjoy ?
