TO AMKEE THE TOPPING:

INGREDIENTS NOTES:

MOZZARELLA CHEESE:

• We have to use low-moisture, part-skim mozzarella for the finest melting and stretchiness in the crust and toppings. We should not have to sue the fresh mozzarella cheese as it becomes so wet to use in the dough.

CREAM CHEESE:

• Cream Cheese gives the crust a delicate feel by adding creaminess and the cream cheese also help to bind the ingredients.

ALMOND FLOUR:

• Almond Flour is an essential ingredient in keto baking, and it gives the crust a solid structure and a nutty flavor without the additional carbs as compare to the regular flour. We have to blanch the almond flour for the smooth consistency.

EGGS:

• Egg adds protein in the dough and it also serves as a binder and also helps to keep the crust’s elements together.

SAEASONING:

• Italian seasoning and garlic powder enhance the crust’s flavor and give it the recognizable pizza dough flavor without adding extra carbs.

KETO PIZZA SAUCE:

• We can make the Sugar-Free Pizza Sauce or Crushed Tomatoes to keep carbs low and we can also use the store-brought pizza sauce which should be keto-friendly.

BACON:

• We have to sue the thick cut bacon in this pizza to make this flavor and tasty.

TOMATOES:

• We have to use firm, ripe tomatoes like Roma or plum to prevent too much moisture from making the pizza soggy.

BASIL:

• Fresh basil is optional, but it gives the pizza more aromatic that goes well with the bacon and tomato.
