    This Keto pizza crust yields a tender, thin and chewy crust in less than 15 minutes! It's made with only 7 ingredients and requires very minimal prep work. Plus, it's flourless, gluten-free, grain-free and only 2 grams net carbs per slice.

    When you combine this fantastic keto pizza crust with my homemade keto pizza sauce, the result is one downright amazing KETO PIZZA.

    Flourless Keto Pizza Crust

    My affection and passion for pizza runs deep. And it's not surprising that my kids take after me. In a perfect world, we'd have it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Heck, we'd even have it as a snack or appetizer. I'd stack them up in my fridge, freezer and eat them all day, every day.

    My mom once told me, every great pizza begins with a flavorful crust. That's why I'm very much excited to share this incredibly easy, dough-less (Fathead) low-carb crust recipe.

    It's made of eggs, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese (lots of it), and seasonings. This Keto pizza crust is very similar to a Fathead pizza crust or Fathead pizza dough. However, it does not contain FLOUR.

    The eggs give it texture; the seasonings amp up the flavor while the cream cheese adds a smooth, tangy mouthfeel to the crust. In addition to texture, the parm cheese adds another layer of flavor to the crust. Yum!

    I know you're probably wondering if this crust would hold the pizza sauce and your favorite pizza toppings without crumbling, and heck ya, it will! The hard parmesan cheese and the eggs will keep it together just fine.

    While it might achieve the crispiness that comes with thin keto pizza dough, it gets downright delicious and tender when baked. You don't have to be on a Keto diet to enjoy this flourless pizza crust. Trust me; you'll never use another low-carb crust recipe.

    Once your Fathead dough is ready and in the oven, it's time to get started on my Keto pizza sauce. It is super easy to make, and the flavor profile is fantastic. Also gluten-free, sugar-free, and pairs perfectly with this pizza crust.

    What You Need

    This doughless Keto crust comes together in just minutes. No pizza dough involved means the crust will not rise; hence, you'll have your pizza on the table in an hour or less. Plus, you only need 6 simple ingredients and no special equipment.

    Equipment

    • Food processor/blender
    • Parchment paper
    • Two 8-9 inch cast iron skillets, pizza pans or baking dishes

    Ingredients

    • 1 8 ounce package of full-fat cream cheese (room temp.)
    • 2 eggs
    • ½ tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
    • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
    • ½ tablespoon onion powder
    • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning - equal parts rosemary, thyme, oregano, basil, cilantro
    • ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese

    This fathead dough makes 2 pizza crusts hence the two baking dishes. If you don't have two, then you can just bake one at a time. I prefer two as I love to mix up the pizza topping and flavors.

    How to make a Keto Pizza Crust

    Learn how to make my Keto pizza crust with step-by-step instructions, quick tips, and tasty variations.

    1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (205 degrees Celsius).
    2. Line your baking ban with parchment paper for the best result. Alternatively, grease with your favorite oil.
    3. Blend cream cheese and eggs and season with pepper, garlic powder, onion powder & Italian seasoning. Just whisk the ingredients with a fork in a large mixing bowl if you don't have a blending tool.
    4. Add the shredded cheese and stir until combined, then spread the mixture on the lined baking pans.
    5. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden brown.
    6. Start prepping your Keto pizza sauce and toppings.

    Tips for success

    Here are a few tips to ensure your first Keto pizza crust is a success:

    • The cream cheese, Parm, and seasonings are what really make this low-carb pizza crust special. So don't skimp on any of it.
    • If you don't have parmesan cheese, only use members of hard cheeses like Asiago, Romano, and Grana Padano. These cheese are dense, firm, and will help keep the crust together. Save the gooey shredded mozzarella cheese for the topping.
    • To avoid the crust falling apart when removing it from the baking sheet, always line it with parchment paper. The crust won't stick but flip out easily out of the pan. Plus, no sticking means less cleanup!
    • You must pre-bake the crust before adding the sauce, cheeses, and toppings. This ensures the crust is sturdy enough to withstand the weight of these. It also helps achieve a crispier crust.
    • The size of the baking sheet or pan matters cause you don't want to end up with a crust that's too thin or too thick.
    • When making pizza, go easy on the cheese topping cause remember the base is made mainly out of cheese.

    I prefer to buy made in the USA cast iron pans for making my crusts, and I love my bamboo cutting board.
