My very simple low carb pizza crust recipe

This pizza dough is so simple and clean that I highly recommend it to anyone on a special diet! With only 15g of net carbs per serving, it perfectly fits into paleo, keto, anti-inflammatory, leaky gut, and gastritis diets.

It is incredibly easy to make and freezes beautifully for weeks. It requires just 10 minutes of hands-on preparation and 10 minutes of baking time. If you freeze these crusts, simply pull one out, add your favorite toppings, and pop it in the oven for 10 minutes. You will have a delicious, low-carb pizza for dinner with zero effort and absolutely no guilt!

This recipe is super clean, gluten-free, nut-free, lactose-free, and low-carb. I always keep a stash of these ready-made pizza crusts in the freezer. Even on the busiest days, I can easily get a healthy pizza on the table when my family asks for it.

Ingredients for 8 Pizza Crusts

  • 5 eggs
  • 2 cups golden flaxseed flour
  • 1 cup brown rice flour
  • 1/3 cup coconut oil
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning (oregano, basil, etc.)
  • Himalayan salt (to taste)

Preparation

  1. Preheat your oven to 340°F (170°C).
  2. Mix the dough: Using a hand mixer, blend all the ingredients together until well incorporated.
  3. Shape the crusts: Line a large baking tray with parchment paper. Form the dough into circular patties, about 5 inches in diameter and 0.2 inches thick.
  4. Pre-bake: Bake the pizza patties for 10 minutes. (Note: This 10-minute bake only pre-bakes the crust. Later, when you add your toppings, you will bake it for an additional 10 minutes until fully cooked.) Let the crusts cool on the baking tray.

Recipe Tips

  • Snack Idea: Slicing up the pre-baked patties makes for a perfect snack. Serve them with a cup of pizza or tomato sauce for dipping!
  • Bake All at Once: You can also add your pizza toppings directly to the raw crust before baking. Simply bake for 15 minutes, or until the cheese turns golden brown.
  • Serving Suggestion: Because this crust can be slightly dry for some tastes, it is best served with extra pizza sauce and a generous amount of toppings and fresh veggies.
