Keto Breakfast Pizza

Step by Step Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

2. 2

   Place 3 cups of mozzarella in a microwave-safe glass bowl. Microwave until cheese is melted: about 2 minutes. Remove from microwave and let the mixture cool while combining the remaining ingredients. If you don’t want to melt the cheese in a microwave, you can add it to a non-stick skillet and melt over the stovetop over medium heat.

3. 3

   To a food processor, add almond flour, one egg, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. Scoop in melted mozzarella cheese. Pulse until a dough ball forms. If you don’t own a food processor, you can mix the ingredients using an electric mixer or knead by hand until a dough is formed.

4. 4

   Place the dough in between two pieces of parchment paper. Using a rolling pin, roll out dough to desired thickness: about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. Remove top parchment layer and place the pizza dough and bottom parchment paper on top of a baking sheet or pizza stone.

5. 5

   In a small bowl, combine ricotta cheese, garlic and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Set aside.

6. 6

   Sprinkle 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese and crumbled bacon evenly over the rolled out pizza dough.

7. 7

   Add dollops of garlic ricotta cheese mixture evenly over the pizza. Sprinkle red pepper flakes and grated parmesan cheese over the pizza. Bake at 400 degrees for 4 minutes.

8. 8

   Remove from oven. Use the back of a large spoon to make 4 divots on the pizza and crack remaining eggs into each divot. Return pizza to oven and bake for an additional 6-8 minutes or until egg whites are almost set. Set oven to broil and broil pizza until eggs are cooked but yolks are still runny (about 30 seconds to 1 minute).

9. 9

   Remove pizza from oven. Sprinkle basil over pizza.
