Keto fathead pepperoni pizza with a golden cheese and almond flour crust — **TooGut pick**Flexible, practical, genuinely delicious.

Fathead pizza earns its popularity because the base behaves like dough instead of cauliflower pretending to be bread. The trick is mixing while the cheese is hot, then baking the naked crust before adding toppings.

One step at a time

Let’s cook.

Tick each step as you go. Built-in timers keep the important moments close.

Heat the oven hard

Heat the oven to 220°C and place a heavy baking tray inside. Cut two sheets of baking paper.

Melt and mix

Microwave the crust mozzarella and cream cheese in 30-second bursts until fully melted. Stir smooth, then immediately knead in almond flour, egg and oregano until uniform.

Roll it thin

Place the dough between the baking paper and roll to a 28 cm round, about 5 mm thick. Remove the top sheet and prick the centre with a fork.

Pre-bake the crust

Slide the crust and paper onto the hot tray. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until golden underneath. Turn it over carefully and bake for 3 minutes more.

Top and finish

Spread with sauce, mozzarella and pepperoni. Bake for 7 to 9 minutes until bubbling and browned. Rest for 3 minutes before slicing.
