How to Prepare Keto pepperoni pizza
Preheat oven in to 400F. Weigh out 2 cups of mozzarella cheese and put into a microwave safe bowl. This is about 8
oz. of cheese.
Microwave the cheese till fully melted and adaptable. Try not to have any more browning .This took me ~80 seconds. Add
three teablespoon cream cheese and one large egg to the cheese and mix it in well.
Put on 3/4 cup of almond flour, one teablespoon psyllium husk powder,one teablespoon Italian seasoning, 1/2 tsp. salt and pepper to the cheese mixture and mix simultaneously.
As you mix the dough, it will become cool enough to work with your hands. Press the dough together up till you can form a round ball.
Plunk the ball onto a silpat with one teablespoon olive oil to keep it easy to work with. Knead the dough out with your hands, forming a circular style as you press outward.
Bake the pizza for 10-12 minutes on one side and remove from the oven.
Roll over the pizza to the other side and bake for another 3-4 minutes.
Take out the pizza from the oven and top with toppings of your choice. (Tomato sauce, 1 cup mozzarella cheese, and
14 slices pepperoni).
Bake afresh for a 3-5 minutes, or until cheese is nicely melted.
Let cool a bit, cut into slices, and serve.
