We’ve come a long way since 2015 when I first discovered keto. Last night I made my first low carb pizza using King Arthur’s (no affiliation) keto-friendly pizza dough mix. Here’s the result. Recipe will be in the comments

    Pepperoni Keto Pizza

    **Ingredients**

    * King Arthur Keto Pizza Dough Mix
    * Rao’s Marinara (Rao’s Homemade Pizza Sauce is even lower carb)
    * Shredded mozzarella
    * Pepperoni

    **Crust**

    * Make dough per box directions
    * You’re looking for a smooth, slightly tacky dough — not wet
    * Rest dough 1 hour, covered, in a warm location (oven off with light on; aim for 75–85°F). Don’t skip this step — it’ll fight you when stretching even after resting
    * Press risen dough onto oiled parchment and rest another 10 minutes
    * Simultaneously preheat oven to 400°F
    * It doesn’t stretch like classic gluten dough, so press from the center outward
    * Aim thin — it bakes better and gets crisper
    * Stretch dough again if it shrinks
    * Full box made one 12–13” diameter crust for me (box claims two 12” crusts)

    **Par-bake**

    * Par-bake untopped dough ~10 minutes
    * Just set and lightly browned
    * Let crust cool slightly, then add marinara, cheese, and toppings

    **Final bake**

    * ~10–12 minutes

    I haven’t seen King Arthur’s pizza dough mix here in Sacramento but I’m going to start looking
    Edit: on Amazon

  4. You gave excellent instructions!! The par-bake step is very important.

    Honestly, I have found that almost every pizza place does “pizza bowls”.  It satisfies the craving every time.  I just get it with light sauce, because the sauce is where most of the carbs are

    Just because it says it’s keto friendly doesn’t mean it is.
