Low Carb Pizza Recipe

Published on - Last Updated on - 16 Comments

Go to Recipe

Pizza is my most favorite food ever, so when I gave up gluten AND grains, it became a real challenge to be able to enjoy my most favorite food. Sometimes I would break down and have a gluten-free (but not grain-free) crust, and while it tastes good, I still prefer to keep the grains out of my diet as much as possible, which means when I am looking for a pizza fix, it must be a low carb pizza.

In 2009, I shared what I call a “no-carb pizza recipe” and it has become fairly popular. For whatever reason, many people are looking for a no or low carb pizza recipe and need or choose to limit their carb intake, so I decided to remake that recipe (because the picture in it was terrible) so that I could enjoy my pizza but without grains.

I tweaked the recipe a bit to add a bit more seasoning and flavor to the crust, and changed the shape so it looks more like a pizza.

The crust on this pizza, as I mentioned in my original recipe is not firm like a traditional pizza, however, the longer you bake the crust, the firmer it does end up once the entire pizza is cooked. I have a theory that baking it one day, refrigerating it, then baking it again for 10 minutes the next day before baking the toppings on it might help, but I haven’t had a chance to try that yet.

In case you are interested, I used a glass pie pan and a ceramic pie pan for this recipe, but any kind will work.  Although the glass lets you see all around how well the crust has cooked before pulling in out. Any pie pan should work, although a commentator gave me a great idea to cook the crust on a skillet then move it to the oven to help crisp up the crust. I may give that a try!

    Yum yum yum. Had my first attempt at this last night, it was a mess but it was a tasty mess. My oven’s a bit inconsistent and getting it even in the pan was impossible! So I like the skillet idea, and I’ll keep trying the other ways to make it crispy. But it was so good and I don’t have my usual post-pizza grain -hangover today so YAY!!! Thanks! x

    this looks easy. I’m sharing this with my sister, my niece has Celiac but loves pizza night at our house. We did an UDI’s pizza last week, it was good but I didn’t know what it was made out of.

      Udi’s usually isn’t too bad, but does have a ton of extra ingredients. I prefer simple. Udi’s also does have grains, just the gluten-free kind.

      Thanks for sharing it!

        Grains are still grains, whether or not they are gluten free, and aren’t part of a low carb diet.
