Almond Flour Crust Pizza You Won’t Regret

Almond Flour Crust Pizza You Won’t Regret

If you are human you most likely enjoy pizza. If you don’t like pizza there may be something wrong with you…

This almond flour pizza crust has saved my life. That might be an exaggeration, but you know what I mean. Pizza is something I don’t eat very often because I never feel good after eating it. It could be a combination of the amount of cheese and dough, but either way it gives me stomach pains.

This isn’t to say I don’t indulge in pizza every now and then. Trust me when I say I would eat if for every meal if I could, but that’s just not possible. I was in need of a pizza crust that was still delicious, but didn’t leave me feeling like I wanted to die.

This four ingredient crust is super easy to make and takes all of 20 minutes.

Almond Flour Crust:

Ingredients:

  1. 2 cups of Almond Flour
  2. 2 tablespoons of Coconut oil (1st measure then melt)
  3. 2 large eggs
  4. 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Mix all of the ingredients together until a dough forms (it will be super sticky, that’s normal) Also you can use a mixer or do it manually. I mixed everything together manually.
  • Compact the dough into a ball and place between two pieces of parchment paper. Roll it out until it’s about 1/4″ thick. (I didn’t have a rolling pin. Also I guessed the width & it was just fine.)
  • Remove the top piece of the parchment paper before transferring it onto your pizza pan. Poke a few small holes with a toothpick to prevent it from bubbling.
  • Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes. (our oven get’s really hot and it only took about 10 minutes) Just keep an eye on it. Should be a nice golden color!
  • Top the crust with your favorite toppings and put it back into the oven for a few more minutes.

**Thomas and I made a Buffalo Chicken Pizza which was absolutely dynamite.

If you’re looking to make buffalo chicken we kept it really simple. Baked the chicken for 10 minutes each side on 450 degrees F. Lightly seasoned with salt & pepper. Shredded the chicken up once out of the oven. Put a layer of Mary Lee’s Buffalo Wing sauce (paleo) on the crust. Layered on the shredded chicken, light layer of shredded cheese, and a drizzle of more sauce. And boom baby you have an amazing pizza that only took 25-30 minutes to make!
