Low Carb Breakfast Pizza Recipe

Pizza on a low carb diet though? Exactly…. I have altered my traditional breakfast pizza recipe to incorporate a low carb option called fathead pizza that make it possible and I’ll tell ya, it’s just as good as the original! This recipe starts with a fathead pizza dough. If you don’t know already, it’s simply a dough made with low carb flours like almond or coconut and uses mozzarella cheese as the “gluten”.  There is no white or wheat flour in this recipe which also makes it gluten free.
