Cheesy Cheese Pizza Crust Pizza

Keto Recipes > Keto Dinner Recipes

I found this recipe on a low carb site and decided to try it out for myself. It looked like it might work, but I definitely had my doubts. I mean a cheese pizza crust made out of cream cheese? Seemed farfetched.

In reality? This cheesy cheese pizza crust actually turned out pretty awesome. Granted, when it’s hot, it doesn’t hold it’s form so great. But when you let it cool down and solidify a bit, it makes a great pizza crust!

It might be a little bit garlic-y for your taste, so if you’re not a huge fan of garlic, I suggest cutting that in half (or less).

Yields 8 slices.

The Preparation

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ½ pound ground beef
  • 1 large link chorizo sausage
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • ¼ teaspoon basil
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon turmeric
  • Salt and pepper to taste

The Execution

1. Preheat your oven to 375F

2. In a mixing bowl, put your cream cheese, parmesan cheese, eggs, pepper, and garlic.

3. Mix it well with a hand blender until smooth.

4. Spray a 9×13″ baking pan with cooking spray (or rub it with butter). DON’T FORGET TO DO THIS! I accidently put all my crust batter in the pan before I sprayed it and had to scrape it all out, spray it, and put it back in. It was not fun! Spread your mixture in the pan until it’s evenly distributed.

5. While you are waiting for your oven to preheat, get a pan on the stove and add your meat.
