Ingredients
Cheese Dough (Fathead Base)
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
2 oz cream cheese
1 ¼ cups almond flour
1 large egg
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
Pinch of salt
Toppings & Fillings
½ cup sugar-free marinara or pizza sauce (plus more for dipping)
1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
20–25 pepperoni slices (or keto-friendly salami)
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter
½ teaspoon garlic powder (for brushing on top)
Optional: chopped parsley, basil, or red pepper flakes
Instructions
Preheat Oven
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a bundt pan or round baking dish with olive oil or butter.
Make the Keto Dough (Fathead Dough)
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine mozzarella cheese and cream cheese.
Microwave for 1 minute, stir, then heat for another 30 seconds until smooth.
Add almond flour, egg, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, and salt. Mix until smooth. (Tip: If sticky, knead lightly with oiled hands.)
Assemble the Pizza Ring
Divide dough into small balls (about 1½–2 inches each).
Lightly dip or roll each ball in marinara sauce and layer in prepared pan.
Sprinkle mozzarella and pepperoni between layers.
Finish with remaining cheese, pepperoni, and Parmesan on top.
Bake
Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until golden and bubbly.
Let cool slightly, then flip onto a plate or serving dish.
Finish & Serve
Brush the top with olive oil or melted butter. Sprinkle garlic powder and optional herbs or red pepper flakes.
Serve warm with extra marinara for dipping.
Notes
Use unsweetened marinara to keep this recipe low-carb.
Works well as a party appetizer or game-day snack.
You can swap pepperoni for keto-friendly salami or cooked sausage.
