Low Carb Stuffed Crust Sheet Pan Pizza
Choose this Keto pizza recipe the next time you want to share the fun with your kids or a group of people! Hand-pressing fresh pizza dough into a sheet pan is easy work anybody can do. It’s even more fun choosing your favorite pizza toppings to arrange on the pizza. Mozzarella cheese sticks (known as “string cheese”) is used for the stuffed crust. Make sure to purchase string cheese made with 100% real cheese or else it won’t melt in the oven. If this pizza becomes a little messy to make, don’t worry. Sheet pan pizzas are meant to be rustic and have the “homemade” look to them. It’s all about taste here!
How to Make It
Step 1
At least 4 hours before you want to bake your pizza, make the Fathead Dough. In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour and baking powder. Whisk an egg together and pour it into the almond flour. Set the bowl aside. In a pot over low heat, melt the mozzarella and cream cheese together until you have a smooth, creamy, melted cheese.
Step 2
Let the melted cheese cool for 30 seconds off the stove. Then, mix the melted cheese into the almond flour bowl. Mix and knead the wet dough until all the yellow and white streaks are gone. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and cool in your refrigerator for at least 4 hours before continuing.
Step 3
When ready to bake, preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line a sheet tray with parchment paper and transfer the chilled dough onto the tray. Place either plastic wrap or parchment paper on top of the dough and use your hands to press the dough into a rectangle. Gently press from the center to the edges, being careful not to create holes. When the dough is pressed out, place a whole piece of string cheese on each side (4 total), leaving about 2 inches of dough from the edges. Wrap that excess dough over the string cheese and seal the dough in place with your fingers.
Step 4
Spread the marinara sauce across the exposed dough. Arrange thin-sliced mushrooms and peppers, giardiniera, garlic, chopped basil, and shredded mozzarella over the pizza. Whisk together another egg and brush about half the egg over the crust of the pizza. Bake for 30-35 minutes and slice into 4 squares for serving.
