Equipment

Ingredients

1 cup almond flour
2 cups shredded mozzarella
2 tablespoon cream cheese
1 large egg
⅛ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper
⅛ teaspoon xanthan gum
½ cup shredded mozzarella for topping
10 slices pepperoni for topping
5 oz tomato sauce for topping

Instructions

In a medium bowl add the almond flour, 1.5 cups of mozzarella and the cream cheese. Gently mix with a fork. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Mix and microwave again for another minute.
Remove from microwave and add the egg, oregano, salt and pepper and a pinch of xanthan gum. Mix with a fork until well combined.
Use both hands to roll the dough into a ball and then divide into 2 balls. Place them in the fridge for 10 minutes.
Preheat air fryer to 400°F and spray the basket with a nonstick spray.
After 10 minutes remove the dough from fridge, divide the dough into 5 balls. Flatten each ball with your hands to form mini pizzas about 2.5 inches wide and ½ inch thick. Then spray bottoms of pizzas with nonstick cooking spray and place into air fryer basket. No more than 2 at a time.
Top with your favourite low carb sauce, pepperoni and mozzarella.
Air fry at 400°F for 6 minutes, allow to cool in the air fryer for 2 minutes and then place on cooling rack. To avoid any accidents use a metal spatula to remove pizzas from Air Fryer basket.

Notes

Each mini pizza is 2g net carbs.

All nutritional information is based on third-party calculations and should be considered estimates. Actual nutritional content will vary with brands used, measuring methods, portion sizes and more.

Generously spray the bottoms of the mini keto air fryer pizza with nonstick spray otherwise they will likely stick to the bottom of the air fryer basket.
Only place 2 mini pizzas in the air fryer at a time to allow them to cook properly.
Place pepperoni under the mozzarella to avoid them from flying around in the air fryer while cooking.
