Keto Crust Success

Gluten-free baking can be tricky for beginners, so here are a few tips to make sure your Keto crust is the best that it can be.

• No substitutions – The correct proportion of ingredients is very important in gluten-free baking. So, you should always make sure to follow the recipe exactly as it is written, even for something as simple as this pizza crust. Because low-carb flours absorb different amounts of liquid, if you swap flours, your crust might not stick together! One exception to the no substitution rule is flavoring. You can swap out the herbs and any other seasonings to taste, so long as they aren’t liquid.
• On a roll – Are you tired of scrubbing the counter after rolling out sticky dough? Just use two pieces of wax or parchment paper to roll out your pizza dough. It’s fast, easy, and best of all, your rolling pin never touches the dough. So that’s one less thing to wash when you’re finished.
• No bake, no problem – Whether it’s a hot summer day or you just don’t want to turn your oven on, you’ll be happy to hear that this crust can also be cooked on the stove top. This technique recalls many traditional flatbread recipes including naan from India and lefse from Norway. The trick is to use a very hot pan. Cast iron is especially appropriate. Cook for about two minutes on each side and to finish, turn the heat down to low, place toppings on pizza and cover until warmed through.
