    You can get carried away with the toppings on this pizza but I like to keep it simple with just a few ingredients that have a lot of flavors.

    We like to make this keto lavash bread pizza on busy nights when we work all day and just want to enjoy dinner in front of the TV rather than at the dining room table.

    Simple, easy, and quick but so so comforting. This pizza was inspired by Zero Carb Crust Pizza which is also thin crust and delicious but takes a little more time to make.

    What is lavash bread pizza?

    Lavash breast is a soft flatbread often used to make sandwiches and wraps. Lavash is thinner than flatbread and the Joseph's Lavash Bread only contains 6g net carbs per half a sheet.

    Ingredient notes

    Making this pizza with simple ingredients like fresh minced garlic, oregano, mozzarella, and salami slices, doesn't get any easier.

    • Lavash Bread: super-thin low carb crust makes this pizza extra crispy and irresistible
    • Olive Oil: the base of the sauce for this low carb lavash bread pizza
    • Mozzarella: keeping it super simple and using freshly grated mozzarella
    • Salami: we used thin slices of genoa salami and cut them into ribbons
    • Grated Parmesan: adding a nutty and salty flavor to give this pizza just the right amount of pizzazz
    • Minced Garlic and Chili Pepper Flakes: mixed with the olive oil and brushed into every divot of this super-soft lavash bread.

    See the recipe card for quantities.

    Steps by step instructions

    How to make thin-crust low carb lavash bread pizza?

    STEP 1: Preheat the oven to 425°F.

    Mince one clove of fresh garlic and add to a small bowl with the olive oil. Then add the chili flakes and oregano. Whisk together until mixed through.

    stirring olive oil mixture in a white bowl.

    STEP 2: Place one sheet of lavash bread onto a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Brush evenly with the olive oil mixture. Make sure to get all the corners and any little dimples in the bread.

    You want all the garlic, oregano, and chili flavors throughout this pizza. However, if you don't like it hot you can omit the chili flakes.

    burshing lavash bread with olive oil.

    STEP 3: Top the pizza with the mozzarella, and salami ribbons, and then sprinkle it with the freshly grated parmesan.

    • STEP 4: Bake in the preheated oven at 425°F for 4-6 minutes or until edges are golden.
    • You want it baked enough so it is crispy and not floppy.
    • This bread can crisp up real quick so keep an eye on it to ensure it doesn't get too crispy or burnt.

    Recipe tips

    Top Tip: watch the flatbread pizza so that it does not overcook as it can burn very quickly.

    Sauce: brush the olive oil sauce mixture evenly so that the lavash bread is slightly moist. However, adding too much can make the pizza soggy.

    • Serving: serve with a side salad like this Low Carb Panzanella Salad
    • Storage: wrap any leftovers in plastic wrap and store them in the fridge for up to 3 days.

    Recipe variations

    The toppings for this low-carb pizza are endless, here are just a few ideas on how to customize this recipe to fit your family.

    • Vegetarian - omit the salami and use more veggies like red peppers, mushrooms, and onions for a vegetarian pizza.
    • Dairy-Free - use vegan cheese instead of mozzarella and parmesan to enjoy this pizza without any dairy.
    • Deli Meats - not a fan of salami, use other deli meats like turkey slices, prosciutto or pepperoni.

    Frequently asked questions

    Can I use pizza sauce for this recipe?

    You can use a low carb marinara sauce for this recipe but not too much as it can make the crust soggy.

    What else can I make with lavash bread?

    Lavash bread can be used just like you would with tortillas or wraps. Make these Low Carb Italian Quesadillas with lavash bread.

    Is this pizza safe for diabetics to enjoy?

    A slice of this low-carb lavash bread pizza contains only 1g net carbs per slice. Therefore, I would consider it safe for diabetics to enjoy. However, please monitor your blood sugars to see how it affects you personally as different foods can affect people differently.

    Can I make this pizza with a pizza stone?

    Yes, you can make it on a pizza stone rather than a sheet pan.

      I made this the other night. I used garlic oil instead of oil and minced garlic. I sectioned a tomato and shook it to remove the seeds and much of the moisture. I chopped it into small pieces, added some thin slices of fresh mozzarella and some fresh basil leaves. It produced a very tasty Margarita Pizza.
