No Dough & Keto Friendly

Confession: I love PIZZA.  Second Confession: I’ve done away with grain and sugar in my diet, and gone to a more keto (genic) type diet , (specifically NSNG ®,) that Dr. David Perlmutter recommends in his book Grain Brain.   Bigger Confession: Oh how I wanted to cheat!  Until I found that I could make this Keto Friendly Gluten Free Pizza!

In Italy, Pizza is generally a seasoned flatbread, topped with olive oil, maybe a few fresh ingredients like basil, tomatoes and of course Mozzarella di Buffalo. Not at all what we’ve come to know in America. Deep Dish, Cheesey, full of meats and goodies.  

This recipe takes a cue from the  Pizza of Italy. We used fresh cheeses, olive oil and coconut oil, spiniach, artichoke hearts, basil, black olives and sundried tomatoes. Simple ingredients, and fresh toppings, meld to make the best mid-week dinner ever.  (I’ve included some in process images so you can see how this all came together).

The ‘crust’ will shrink from the sides,  rise and bubble up a bit but will settle as it cools.

White Sauce For Pizza

Description

A delicate Alfredo like white sauce, perfect for Pizza


Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon Almond Flour
  • 1 Tablespoon Salted Butter
  • 1 Pint of Heavy Cream
  • 2 Cups of Shredded/shaved parmesan & romano mix
  • Sea Salt and Course pepper for taste

Instructions

  1. In a medium pan over medium heat, add butter and melt.
  2. Add in flour to create your rue for the base of the creamy alfredo sauce
  3. With a whisk, slowly add in heavy cream. (Keep the whisk moving so you don’t create any lumps.)
  4. Allow cream mixture to heat slowly, and then add in your cheese.
  5. Slowly mix with whisk. (The whisking action will help the cheese blend into the cream and create a super velvety texture.)
  6. Then add in your salt and pepper. (I like a lot of pepper, so I used 1 teaspoon in mine.)
  7. Continue slowly whisking until your cheese mixture thickens. This will take about 5ish minutes, from the moment you add the cheese into the heavy cream.
  8. Once you see your first bubbles starting to boil, while you are whisking, you alfredo sauce is done!
  9. Allow 15 to 20 minutes to cool before using on your pizza! Enjoy!

    I don’t need gluten free pizza dough, but it’s always good to have a great recipe for it on hand in case I need it for one of my friend. Thanks for sharing.

    Hi Debbie,
    Im just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate all the talent, thought and creativity that went into the creation of your site, not to mention the great recipes. I am a retired archictect living in the Northwest, originally from New England. I have just finished my third cookbook starting with trying to read my collection of hand written recipes that I have been putting together since the mid seventies. Having said this, I am well aware of how much time it takes to do what you do. I have never been impressed enough to take the time to write to anyone and I just wanted to say congratulations on your achievements and keep those recipes coming.

    This is interesting, but a lot of dairy!

      Unless you’re dairy sensitive, its actually not noticeable. Its not vegan but keto and gf.

    This one looks good, but I like more veggies. I make a killer cauliflower crust pizza.

    Those boonanas on the side of your post are sooo cute!
    I, too, love pizza and this recipe is definitely a winner. I don’t need to be gluten/grain-free but prefer to eat a wide variety of foods without concentrating on any one type.

    I LOVE this idea and my housemate who is GF will love it too — only one question. I have lost 71 lbs and plan to keep going, and part of what I do is track my food on myfitnesspal — so I need nutrition info for what I eat. Do you have some for the dough and the sauce? THANK YOU!

    I have made this many times as I am on low carb, no sugar diet. I have found adding a 1/4 cup of raw almond flour to this helps it to crisp up a bit. I also cook it about 18 minutes. Try it! Thank you for this recipe. I can eat PIZZA AGAIN!
