Fathead Pizza mmmm!

[charliebarker]

Couldn't be easier...I'm a total non-cook!

Very easy - a little tip I flip the base and bake both sides it makes it firmer - but watch it it cooks fast
The first one I made

That does look good. Is it difficult to make? (I’m not much of a cook).

I’m not exactly Nigella Lawson and I managed it! Not too difficult at all

 

[Rachox]

I have one in the oven as I type! Yummmmm

Enjoy! What have you topped yours with?

Look up the original Fat Head pizza recipe- no microwave involved. On my phone and can’t find the link but it’s on the Diet Doctor website.

This version suggests you can use a non stick pan over a medium heat as an alternative to microwaving:

Holy heck.

I think I've just realised my eyes are directly connected to my saliva glands.

I tried this one last week. No flour at all, and it turned out great - tasted just like regular pizza crust! It really satisfied my pizza cravings.

View attachment 24070 I can’t believe I’ve waited nearly 5 months since my diabetes diagnosis to try making a fathead pizza. Wow!!!!
It was delicious and so filling. Waiting for hubby to come home from work to see what he thinks of it.

How much does it spike bg levels?

I’ve cooked this three times and from first bite to two hours later readings were between 0.2 and 0.7 mmols/l higher

I made this last night. I used chorizo, mushrooms, cheddar and mini sweet peppers for the topping.

Tasted *amazing*, thanks for highlighting this.

Any top tips about making the base and being able to get it off the greaseproof paper after cooking? I think I may have misjudged the meaning of "2 tablespoons" of cream cheese for mine, I ended up having to put lots more almond flour in and it was still quite moist. I coated the grease proof paper with olive oil, but still I couldn't get the base off after cooking it. I ended up putting the whole lot, paper included, on the plate and scraping it off to eat it. Didn't affect the taste however

Going to be trying a similar thing tonight, using Lidl high protein rolls as the base for now. Which I suppose some people would call cheese on toast!
