THIN-CRUST FATHEAD PIZZA DOUGH

Made without cream cheese, this crust is not only keto-friendly but also tastes just like pizza! Even though it's thin, the xanthan gum helps make it sturdy enough to pick up and hold all your favorite pizza toppings. Note that the yeast won't help the dough rise since it's lacking sugar to activate it; it is solely included to add traditional bread-like flavor. Shred your own mozzarella from a block of cheese instead of buying pre-shredded; the latter does not melt well.

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 teaspoons yeast
2 tablespoons warm water
1 ½ cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 cup blanched almond flour
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
⅛ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Dissolve yeast in warm water in a bowl. Set aside for about 5 minutes.
  • Place mozzarella cheese into a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 90 seconds, stirring every 30 seconds until cheese is completely melted. Stir in yeast mixture and egg and stir to combine; mixture will not incorporate well at this point.
  • Stir in almond flour, xanthan gum, and salt. If mixture is difficult to mix, reheat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds to soften the cheese. Stir again until well incorporated. Using your hands, knead the dough for 2 minutes.
  • Place dough on baking sheet and press with your fingers into a thin crust, approximately 11-12 inches in diameter.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until crust is lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven, top with your favorite pizza toppings, and return to the oven for 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.

Time 1h15m

Yield 2 pizzas

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (may substitute whole wheat flour for 1 cup of the all-purpose)
1 (1/4 ounce) package active dry yeast
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup warm water
1/2-1 tablespoon olive oil
cornmeal, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Mix a little sugar into the warm water.
  • Sprinkle yeast on top.
  • Wait for 10 minutes or until it gets all foamy.
  • Pour into a large bowl.
  • Add flour, salt, olive oil.
  • Combine.
  • Knead for 6-8 minutes until you have a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (add a bit more flour if you need to).
  • Cover and let rest for 20-30 minutes.
  • Lightly grease two 12-inch pizza pans.
  • Sprinkle with a little bit of cornmeal.
  • Divide dough in half.
  • Place each half on a pizza pan and pat it with your fingers until it stretches over the whole pan.
  • Try to make it thicker around the edge.
  • If desired, pre-bake at 425 F for 10 minutes (I don't always do this).
  • Then spread with pizza sauce and use the toppings of your choice.
  • Bake at 425 F for 10-20 minutes longer or until bubbly and hot.
  • Makes 2 12-inch pizzas.
  • If you don't want to use all the dough, you can freeze it.
  • Take a portion of dough, form into a ball, rub olive oil over it and place it in a freezer bag (the oil makes it easier to take out of the bag).
  • When you want to make a pizza, take dough out of freezer and allow to thaw before using.

Tips:

  • Use a food processor or high-powered blender. This will help to create a smooth and consistent dough.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the dough tough.
  • Let the dough rest for at least 30 minutes before using. This will help the dough to develop its full flavor and texture.
  • Preheat your oven to the highest temperature possible. This will help to create a crispy crust.
  • Use a pizza stone or baking sheet. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the crust from sticking.
  • Bake the pizza for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent the cheese from running off the pizza.
