Keto Pizza - from a baking mix

When I say our baking mixes are versatile, I really mean it!

One bread baking mix can absolutely make you that low carb, gluten free bread you have been dreaming of, in record time. But when you feel like something else and bread is not going to cut it, make a low carb / keto pizza base from our baking mix!

Now you can make your very own keto pizza right at home, so when the craving strikes, you will be prepared!

why you will love it


The best part of a pizza, is the base, you can add your favorite toppings and cheese, but if the base is terrible, your entire pizza is terrible!

This is where this base comes in handy! The Almond flour and other ingredients has already been mixed in the right ingredients for you. It’s healthier than the normal wheat (white ) flour that most pizza bases are made from, and its even gluten free, for those that need it.

It is really easy to make at home, saving you time and money, in this time we find ourselves in, saving money is absolute key!

You can have the baking mix ready in your pantry for months, so you wont even have to leave the house to go and grab some ingredients!

How is that for a keto pizza base!

Sezzy used the Rosemary Garlic and Thyme baking mix for this base as it already has some amazing herbs mixed into it, and in the perfect quantities. The Original bread baking mix will also do the trick, but you will have to add herbs and spices, if you want them in your base!

INGREDIENTS

1 Baking Mix - Rosemary Garlic and Thyme ( recommended)

3/4 cup parmesan cheese

2 eggs

2 tablespoons water ( maybe a little more)

1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil


instructions

1.In a large bowl, combine your baking mix and cheese.

2. In a small bowl/jug mix up your eggs, water and oil.

3. Add the wet mixture into your dry ingredients and give it a good mix, until a nice dough is formed. Make sure you have added enough water. you want it to look like a dough, not crumbly, but all stuck to gether without being sticky.

4. Form dough into a nice ball. Here you need to decide if you are making 2 bases or 1. I prefer to make two, as the dough makes a large size pizza and I like it quite thin, so it became a little tricky to manage.

5. Transfer your dough ball/s onto baking paper, place another piece on top, and roll it out!

6. Transfer your pizza/s to a pzza stone/pan - I use a cookie sheet, that all I had! Bake at 180 for 15-20 mins. You want your crust slightly brown and for me, crispy on the edges. Cool your pizza for 10-15 minutes

7. Now, flip it over, still on the pan/stone and remove the baking paper. Add your toppings here!

8. Give your pizza a nice grill on 220 degrees celsius, until the cheese is nice a bubbly!


tips

Roll out your pizza to the thickness and size you want. I prefer a thinner crust and also a rectangle size. Remember to make your baking paper the correct size

Add your favorite toppings

If you are using the Original baking mix, add some herbs and spices, to make the pizza base your own!

If you are going to use the Original, why not make it into something sweet? Think dessert pizza!

Your pizza can go into the fridge, the crust held, for me, for a day, then I ate the rest, so beyond that, I actualy dont know!

You can prepare keto pizza bases before hand and freeze them! Freeze them in layers in between the baking paper, then wrap them in plastic wrap. Thaw them out before you bake them. I would recommend that you don’t keep them longer than 3 months in the freezer.

Have fun and let us know how your keto pizza from a baking mix, turned out!
