Fluffy Pizza Dough Recipe (Low Carb, Keto)

Pizza dough is a staple in every keto household. The problem, however, is that many recipes use white flour and are extremely high in carbohydrates. This fluffy pizza dough recipe is much lower carb than most store-bought varieties and tastes just as good!

In a large bowl, add the yeast and warm water and mix to combine. Allow sitting for 10 minutes or until foamy.

Leavening agents are used to making baked goods rise. The most common leavening agents are baking soda, baking powder and yeast. Baking soda and baking powder work by reacting with acids and bases in recipes to create carbon dioxide gas, which is what causes the bread to rise. Yeast feeds on sugar, so it needs to be added to warm water in order for it to expand and foam when it’s ready. It’s best not to mix yeast with cold water because this can kill the yeast before it has a chance to do its job in rising your dough!

Stir together the almond flour, coconut flour, oat fibre and psyllium husk powder in a large bowl. Set aside.

Use a wooden spoon or spatula to mix the dough together. If you use a mixer, it will overwork the dough and make it tough, so I recommend using your hands instead.

Do not overmix! Mix just until everything is incorporated together–you don’t want to see any flour at all on top of your bowl after mixing, as this means you’ve incorporated too much air into your dough, which can result in overly fluffy pizza crusts (and also makes them difficult to stretch).

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). If you’re using a pizza stone, place it on the middle rack of your oven and preheat for 30 minutes prior to baking.

Grease a pizza pan or baking sheet with olive oil. Spread pizza dough into an even layer on the prepared pan/sheet.

To prepare a pan or sheet for this recipe, you’ll start with a layer of olive oil. The bottom shouldn’t be more than 1/8 inch thick; if it is, spread some off so that the dough will cook evenly. Spread your dough into an even layer on top of the pan/sheet.

Bake in preheated oven until dough is set, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and carefully flip the crust over without breaking it.

If you’re concerned about your pizza dough staying crispy while cooking, you can add some olive oil to it before baking.

You can make pizza dough using only five simple ingredients!

Pizza dough is a lot easier to make than you might think! To start, mix the almond flour, baking powder and sea salt in a bowl. Next, mix the olive oil with your hand mixer on low speed for 30 seconds. Add egg yolks and lemon juice and continue to mix until well combined. Finally, add the hot water slowly as you increase the speed of your hand mixer until all ingredients are fully incorporated into a dough ball that can be formed into two balls.

Once your dough is made (about 5 minutes), place it between two pieces of parchment paper on top of a cookie sheet or pizza stone in an oven set at 450 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes before removing it from the oven to cool slightly before topping with sauce, cheese and toppings of choice. Bake again at 450 F for 10–15 minutes until golden brown around the edges but still soft in the centre when pierced with a toothpick or fork (depending on how much time you have). Slice carefully so that each piece comes out intact without breaking apart due to excess moisture!
