How to Make It
Step 1
In a large bowl, add the almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, salt, oregano, dried chives, and pepper. Mix well to fully combine. Optionally, add a pinch of garlic powder.
Step 2
Put the butter in a microwave-safe dish and microwave until completely melted. Crack the eggs into a large bowl and add the melted butter. Using a hand mixer with whisking attachments, beat until completely combined.
Step 3
Stir in the dry mixture. Using a hand mixer with dough hooks, beat until completely combined, making sure to break any lumps. The dough should be slightly sticky but firm.
Step 4
Lightly grease your hands with some coconut oil. Knead the dough into a ball. Cover with a piece of plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes. You can skip this step but we highly recommend it – it will make the dough much easier to work with.
Step 5
Remove the dough from the refrigerator. Cut the ball into 2 equal pieces. You will get two pizza crusts, approximately 8 inches in diameter.
Step 6
Place the dough on a large piece of parchment paper. Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough until a half inch in thickness. Use your hands to shape the dough into a pizza shape. Poke a few holes with a fork.
Step 7
Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Line the bottom of the air fryer basket with parchment paper and carefully place the pizza crust in it. Cook for 8-10 minutes or until lightly golden brown on top.
Step 8
When done, spread the pizza sauce over the crust. Top with the sliced pepperoni and shredded mozzarella. Optionally, sprinkle some more dried oregano on top. Cook for another 2-3 minutes or until the cheese has melted.
Step 9
When done, carefully remove the pizza from your air fryer. Transfer to serving plates and slice immediately. Serve with your favorite Keto dips or fresh vegetables.
