Best Keto Sheet Pan Pizza #keto #pizza

To create the pizza crust, I combined uncooked sweet Italian sausage, cream cheese, almond and coconut flours, as well as shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese, and eggs. I pressed the crust mixture into the bottom of a 13×9-inch quarter sheet pan, creating a edge of crust around the sides of the pan. I baked the crust just long enough to firm it up.

While the crust baked, I sautéed sliced bell peppers and onions, baby spinach, and garlic.

Finally, I spread some of our homemade pizza sauce over the baked crust, topped that with the sautéed vegetables, and added lots of cheese on top.

After one more round in the oven, our Keto Sheet Pan Pizza came out hot and melty, and absolutely delicious!

Even if you aren’t eating keto, or low-carb these days, you’ll love this Keto Sheet Pan Pizza!

Can I use ground beef or ground chicken for crust, instead of sausage?

We’ve been asked this question several times since we originally posted this recipe, and here’s our answer:

We haven’t tried doing so ourselves, but in theory it should work – although the texture won’t be the same.  The sausage has a lot more flavor and fat than either ground beef or chicken, so you should select a ground beef/chicken with a higher fat content if possible, and you should add more seasonings as well. If you’ve tried this swap, please let a comment and let us know how it came out!
