The best low carb pizza recipes on the planet! You want ’em and I’ve got ’em. A mouthwatering round up of the best keto pizza recipes around, including fathead dough, pizza casseroles, pizza muffins and more.
It’s official. The word is out. The ketogenic diet is anything but restrictive and this here low carb pizza collection proves it beyond a shadow of a doubt.
The idea that a low carb or keto diet is too restrictive for people to follow very long is a perception I am constantly battling. I hear it from all quarters, from your regular Joe Schmoe on the corner to medical professionals and experts.
They use it as a reason to pooh pooh the keto diet and it drives me bonkers. Because it’s such a pervasive myth and it’s scaring many people from taking the first step toward better health. We need to change this erroneous perception, STAT.
Ask many folks what they think they would miss most on a keto diet and I guarantee you about 50% of them would say pizza. Well we’ve removed that obstacle, now haven’t we? So there are no more excuses!
With the advent of the famous Fathead dough, we have a low carb pizza crust that is just as good as the real thing. I like my modified Magic Mozzarella dough a little better, as it stands up to more toppings, but it’s a similar idea. And beyond your traditional-style pizza, there are so many great ways to make other pizza-flavoured foods with little to no carbs. Many of these recipes are easy and quick to make too!
Great ways to make low carb pizza
- Classic pizza (with a crust and everything!)
- Skillet pizza (with or without the crust)
- Pizza casserole
- Pizza pockets
- Pizza cups
- Pizza crackers
- Pizza stuffed mushrooms or zucchini
Oh my friends, the list goes on. So let’s roll up our sleeves and dig in because it’s low carb pizza night!

Many thanks, Carolyn. I needed something to inspire me and provide me with some variety. Can’t wait to eat my way through your list!

Enjoy!

I really need to try this. My husband is a pizza snob. He only wants a plain cheese pizza with sauce. I will try out the dough and cook it the way he likes. Thanks!
Kim says

Jackie says
Oh gosh, I meant Everyday Keto Kitchen cookbook. Oops.
Jackie says
Hi Carolyn,
Is the “modified” version of the magic mozzarella dough the one that is already in the Easy Keto Kitchen cookbook? Thanks.
P.s. Keep up the wonderful work. You don’t know how much we appreciate you and your easy recipes that are so delicious! Hoping you’ll come to Minnesota soon to sign my cookbooks. Lol.
Carolyn says
Yes, the one in the book is the same as this one.
Kirsten/ComfortablyDomestic says

Wow what a fabulous round up! Thanks Carolyn!
Erica says
Hi Carolyn, thank you for so many great ideas! I quite like recipe round-ups. FYI, the link for cauliflower pizza bagels from Up Late Anyway is an invalid Pinterest link.
Carolyn says
Thanks for the heads up!
Erica says
Glad to help. Just noticed that Where’s the Crust pizza and Pepperoni cream cheese pizza rolls are also invalid Pinterest links.
After perusing these recipes, I’m seriously lamenting the absence of mozzarella in my house. ???? Leftover Mexican cauliflower rice skillet will have to suffice. Not a problem there–another great recipe in Easy Keto dinners, which we’re really enjoying.
KalynsKitchen says
Yum! Who doesn’t love pizza flavors without the carbs? Thanks for including my recipe.
