Recipe Notes
- If you prefer a thinner sauce, add a little water to the mix. For a thicker sauce, you can either use tomato paste instead of tomato sauce or both. Adding a tablespoon or two of Keto-friendly almond flour is the other option. Combine equal parts of water and flour, then add to sauce.
- Tomato paste typically has 2 net carbs per serving, so you should use it in moderation. If you're on a strict keto diet, I suggest you thin it with water.
- Your sugar-free pizza sauce shouldn't be too thin; otherwise, it will make your pizza crust soggy.
- Parmesan is the star ingredient. It adds a delectable flavor to this Keto pizza sauce, so don't skip it. Out of parmesan? Asiago, Grana Padano, dry Jack, and romano cheese are great alternatives you can use.
- If you like your sauces hot and spicy, add more red pepper flakes.
- Make a big batch of this flavor-packed keto pizza sauce and have it on hand whenever you want to make keto pizza crust, fathead dough, or top your favorite veggies and meats.
- Parmesan is among the saltiest cheeses, so you should refrain from adding more salt to the sauce. But if you happen to overdo the salt, you can downplay the saltiness by adding some sugar-free balsamic vinegar.
- If you want to infuse more flavor into your keto pizza sauce, try adding a small splash of olive oil or more spices and blends like Italian seasoning.
