An easy low carb pizza recipe that even your kids can make! It’s a huge hit with the whole family. THM-friendly. Easy low carb THM Pan Pizza RecipeI don’t watch television with my kids very often. Let’s face it, our interests differ. While they are into cartoon characters with squeaky voices that get into all sorts of silly scrapes, I lean more toward the English aristocracy drinking tea and sniping at each other with wry British humour. But while I may never enjoy Clarence on Cartoon Network, nor be able to convince them to watch Downton Abbey with me on Masterpiece Theater, we have finally found one show we can agree on: MASTERCHEF JUNIOR on FOX. Kudos to this show for being funny, fun, and engaging for all ages. My kindergartner likes it as much as my grumpy tween, so that’s saying a lot. And how can I not be impressed by kids who know what a coulis is, or how to properly caramelize onions? We were eagerly awaiting the Season 4 premiere on November 6th and we were not disappointed. It’s shaping up to be a great season. This easy pan pizza is low carb and THM friendly. It's so easy, you can have your kids make it for you! My kids love to cook with me and are always asking to help out in the kitchen. I admit that I don’t always encourage this as much as I should. I do firmly believe that learning to cook gives kids lifelong skills and healthy habits, but cooking with kids can take some serious patience. Now that they are all a little older, it’s getting easier and easier. It doesn’t hurt that I can now require them to clean up their own mess! For Mother’s Day last year, my 11 year-old son even gave me a coupon for a homemade dinner for the family. He will shop for the ingredients (using his own money!) and make it all himself, with maybe just a little advice from mum and dad. Chances are it will be something easy, like tacos, but I applaud him for this thoughtful gesture. Easy low carb pan pizza with THM and grain-free options. It’s a far cry, of course, from the complicated dishes these 8 to 13 year olds are making on MASTERCHEF JUNIOR on FOX. These talented young people aren’t grabbing some ground meat and a little taco seasoning and calling it dinner. They are poaching salmon and rolling out their own pasta and baking complicated desserts. It’s really hard not to get a little addicted to watching this. It’s a refreshing change from the adult version of these sorts of cooking competitions. There’s a lot less ego and bravado involved, and the kids are all really sweet and encouraging to each other. And if you’re used to seeing Gordon Ramsey screaming and flipping out, you are going to be in for a big surprise. He too is sweet and encouraging (as are the other judges). Seeing one young competitor panic when his sauce was burning, Ramsey walked over and talked him through how to save the dish. He pokes a lot of fun at himself during the show, and in the premiere the kids got bash a large papier-mâché piñata of Ramsey’s head to get their MASTERCHEF JUNIOR aprons. Kids making low carb pan pizza We only discovered the show about a month ago, but my kids have been asking for it almost every night. Thank goodness we are so behind, we can catch up on old seasons. And since the new season airs on Friday nights, it’s begun to replace our usual Friday Movie Night. I love having a little TV time with my three. Kids making low carb pan pizza The premiere episode is now streaming on FOX NOW – if you missed it, watch now: http://www.fox.com/masterchef-junior/full-episodes So, in the spirit of cooking with kids, I thought I’d bring you a fun, easy, and delicious recipe that my kids love. This past go round, I even enlisted their help to make it. It was seriously chaotic in the kitchen with all three of them. But I channeled my inner Gordon Ramsey and kept my cool, talking them through things, and making sure there were no serious mishaps. And then I made them do all the dishes. A delicious low carb pan pizza recipe - feel free to load it up with your favourite toppings!

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup olive oil or melted butter
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
Toppings:
  • 1 cup sugar-free tomato sauce
  • 3 ounces pepperoni slices
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella
Instructions
Crust:
  1. Preheat oven to 325F and grease a 9x13 baking pan well.

    My favorite way to cook with our kids is cooking recipes that have 6 ingredients or less, like Sloppy Joes & 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies, but I also love cooking more difficult recipes with our kids that have been in the family for years so that they learn how to make our family favorites! So we don’t have a disaster, I never let them measure over the dish we are preparing. I give them a paper plate to measure ingredients out over in case they spill over.

    Your three kids are so cute!! I have the opposite color combo-2 brunettes and a tow head!!
    They love to cook. My little one is superb at egg cracking and beating!
    The older ones each have an interest in learning to cook more complex recipes. For now, they’re mastering scrambled eggs, tacos, and crockpot meals. They love cookie and cake baking and decorating! They’re getting good at pies, too! It’s a good lesson in “letting-go” whilst cooking with kids. Fortunately, mine are good “cleaner-uppers!!” ??

    Kudos, Carolyn, for letting the kids in the kitchen! I have a hard time with letting mine in, but we love to bake together (especially if it involves the mixer!) and my one daughter has even made scrambled eggs. I am considering making the dried cranberries and letting the girls work on their knife skills, we’ll see when we actually get time! P.S. Those are some gorgeous kiddos you have!!

    Such cute kids! Wonderful sweepstakes! Need to try your new pizza recipe. Sounds delicious!!

    No kids sadly but need to start cooking with my niece and nephews occasionally. I would think there must be something young children can do with each meal if not just the prepping. Would be so much fun! I think I would love doing the whole cookie making with cutting them out and decorating them. I would have everything ready including various color frostings and toppings so they wouldn’t get bored.

    You brought me back to my own childhood with this post. I had a brother born with a hole in his heart and Mom and Dad had to go downtown Chicago daily when he was in the hospital in his early years. At 10 and 9, me and my sister learned how to do everything quickly to help out – laundry, cleaning and cooking. You wouldn’t believe some of the dishes we liked to make when there wasn’t a lot in the cupboards. Hot chocolate pudding became hot fudge sauce for ice cream. Peanut butter and sugar became unbaked cookies and we tried all the bisquick recipes 🙂 Through the years, I became quite a cook and my sister quite the baker. We progressed to much more complicated recipes, one of which was Mom & Dad’s favorite – Chicken Divan (and not the casserole with curry powder but the one with a white sauce). We liked to surprise them with a nice meal after they bowled on Sundays. Although we grew up much faster than normal it was also a blessing. Going off to college and then living on our own, we were already confident, accomplished cooks and knew how to do laundry too. The only issue my college roommates had was that I knew how to cook for 8 people and always had leftovers in the fridge with green growing things. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

    Hi Carolyn, I’m happy to tell you that it was my now grown son who got me started on a low carb way of life… He’s a good and very adventurous cook which I’d like to attribute to the help he gave me in the kitchen while he was growing up! He especially enjoyed ‘project’ cooking, like spaghetti sauce or pie crust…. Getting him to clean up was always a challenge, though. 🙂 He and I have enjoyed watching both the adult and junior MasterChef shows together for years now.
    His low carb crust recipe is a bit different, so I’ll be making yours tomorrow for us to try. Thank you, as always! (PS: your blog didn’t arrive til today, the 14th, at about 5pm… Just an FYI .)

    Thanks for the MasterChef junior review. I’ve been wondering about it. Our family LOVES cooking and baking shows. We are just finishing the British Baking Competition on Netflix. The 5 year old isn’t that keen on it because it’s really intense baking and each episode is long. Everyone else likes it a lot though. If you have Amazon Prime I have to recommend the Kids Baking Competition. There aren’t that many episodes but the kids are really sweet and great bakers! That was a really fun one.

    Anyway, so how does your pizza differ from your others? It sure looks nice and thick. That is one thing I really love and miss…thick pizza!

    Also, I love how all your kids look so much alike but with different shades of hair color! Cute! Kids are all so unique no matter how much they are the same.

    Well, my kids are grown so now I cook with my grandchildren, Every sleep over with “Nani” usually includes a “Can I Help?” and a chair being pulled to the kitchen counter. They all started with cracking eggs,measuring ingredients and of course stirring. They are quite proud of themselves when they show off their creations to their parents. I purchased a donut pan recently and they think it is really “awesome” to make their own donuts. They are also quite taken with the cake ball maker.

They’re less picky about what they eat, are looking for flavors and spices in their food and are much more interested in spending time on the kitchen (except for the cleanup of course ?).

    Oh my, beautiful kids. When I was in grade school in the ancient days of the 50’s we had school lunches that were not too bad. One was “mock” pizza with a crust that was more biscuit like..and I loved it. Recently thought of it and hope this will be yummy in the same way.

    When my son was small, we would make simple recipes together. He now loves to cook + bake. He’s a much more inventive cook + baker than I am. Growing up, my grandmother had child size bread + pie pans so that when she baked bread + pies, I could, too. I loved to place the leftover strips of pie crust dough onto cookie sheets and sprinkle with sugar + cinnamon. Certain scents from cooking and baking bring us all back to our childhoods; happy more simpler times.

    I made this for dinner last night and the crust was like mush..I even baked it a lot longer than the 22 minutes and it didn’t matter, it still was like eating a pile of mush..So here is my husband and I scraping off the top of the mush trying to salvage what little we could of our dinner..I had made a cauliflower pizza crust a few weeks ago and loved it..but I had wanted to try a recipe that wouldn’t be as much work so I thought I’d try yours..It wasn’t that I didn’t follw the instructions to a T because I did other than baking it another half hour longer in hopes that it would eventually resemble something akin to a pizza crust:^(

    I made this pizza this evening – with cashew milk instead of almond milk (only modification). Unfortunately, the crust turned out dry and crumbly :-(…. I’m not sure if I cooked it a little too long (went the full 22 minutes when I didn’t see browned edges) or if I added too much baking blend as a result of it not being sufficiently “fluffed up” before I measured it. I have tried the pizza crust made with mozzarella cheese, and my husband and I LOVE that one!! One of these days, I hope to make the garlic knots and the desert with chocolate and walnuts that also has the mozzarella-based dough. 🙂

    When my son was 6, I always let him choose what he wanted to take to school for lunch. He would watch me fix it every night, but when he came home the next day, his entire lunch would be virtually untouched. At some point, he asked if he could make his own. After that, he would stand on a stool at the stove and make refried beans, roll them up in tortillas with cheese and sour cream and then make some cut up fruit. He explored making many different foods, and he ate every bite he made every day. Not to be outdone, my 8 year old daughter asked to make her own lunch, too. By the time my youngest one was in kindergarten, he just figured that all kids made their own lunches. Now, they are all grown with kids of their own, and every one of their kids–ages 3, 7, 8, & 9, is a fantastic junior chef!

    I just made this using Bob’s Red Mill flours. Followed the recipe exactly, baked the crust for 20 mins, baked the finished pizza another 10 and it came out PERFECT! My oven is only two years old. That probably helps.

    This is my first time using almond flour. I was amazed at how filling one slice was! I couldn’t imagine being satisfied with only one what I consider small piece, but after some vegetables on the side, I couldn’t have finished it if it were any bigger. One thing to note, I would have liked to have known the weight equivalent of 1.5 cups of shredded mozzarella. I only had 8 oz, and I felt it could have used more.

    This pizza was really tasty, and I’m very happy with it. Next time, though, I’ll only make half. I live alone and am going to have to freeze some of this.

    Thanks, Carolyn!
