Low Carb Protein Pizza is a high-protein, low-carb twist on traditional pizza, featuring a flavorful, crispy crust made with cheese, eggs, and protein powder. Topped with melty cheese, savory sauce, and your favorite toppings, it’s a guilt-free comfort food perfect for keto or fitness-friendly meals.

Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (part-skim or low-moisture)
  • 1 scoop unflavored or savory protein powder
  • 1/4 cup almond flour or 2 tbsp coconut flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup low-carb tomato or pizza sauce
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella or provolone (for topping)
  • Your choice of toppings (pepperoni, mushrooms, spinach, bell peppers, etc.)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet or pizza pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, shredded mozzarella, protein powder, almond flour, baking powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper until a thick dough forms.
  3. Spread the dough onto the prepared pan in a circular or rectangular shape, about ¼-inch thick.
  4. Prebake for 10–12 minutes, or until golden and firm to the touch.
  5. Remove from oven and spread pizza sauce evenly over the crust. Sprinkle with shredded cheese and desired toppings.
  6. Return to the oven and bake for 7–10 more minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving warm.

Notes

  • Use almond or coconut flour to keep the recipe gluten-free and low-carb.
  • Prebake longer for an extra-crispy crust.
  • Make ahead by baking the crust in advance and refrigerating or freezing it for later use.
  • For a keto version, ensure all ingredients and sauces are sugar-free.
