WelI I will have cracked it after I test in half an hour.Fingers crossed!
Tried a recipe from Fat Face for a Keto pizza and must say its really good.What a treat.
Ingredients : 170g grated mozarella cheese
105g ground almonds
2 tablespoons full fat cream cheese
1 large egg.
Pinch of garlic salt (optional).
Dried oregano or Italian herbs (optional).
These ingredients are for the pizza base.Firstly add the mozzarella and cubed cream cheese into a microwaveable bowl.Microwave on full power for 1 minute.Mine is Cat E 800w.Give mixture a stir and microwave for a further 30 seconds.Stir again using a spatula being careful as it will be very hot.Then add the beaten egg and almond flour.This should combine to be very dough like.If it is too stringy just pop it back in the mic for 20 seconds.
Move the dough onto a pizza tray lined with baking parchment,and using wet hands make a pizza base.Keep wetting your hands as you do this.Quite fun actually.Finally prick all over with a fork to stop any bubbling up.This should give a nice flat pizza base.I crimped around the edge a bit also.
I sprinkled garlic powder over mine prior to baking in a preheated oven for 8 minutes at 200 C.
I kept a close eye on it and it was about to start burning,so I took it out,cooled the oven down to 150 C and gave it another 5 minutes.You could add dried herbs to the dough before making the base if you like,and I may try his next time.
The result a pretty nice looking pizza base. I added home made tomato sauce which we have with pasta ( well not me anymore) after reducing it down a bit to thicken it up.3 to 4 tablespoons was enough.Then more mozarella and precooked sliced onion,pepperami,and sliced baby tomato.A sprinkle of mozarella and ground black pepper and into the oven 150 C for 5-6 minutes or until the cheese is bubbling.I took mine out halfway and tore up some really nice dry cure ham on the top.I also covered the edge of the crust in strips of tin foil to prevent it from burning.
It is necessary to cook any meats or toppings before building your pizza as the cooking is really only to melt the cheese on top and it would be easy to burn the crust due to the amount of cheese in it.
A great meat feast type result.Very filling due to the amount of cheese in the crust.
Even the non LC's loved it.
