Torirose,
I love pizza too, and after much trial and error this is the recipe I ended up with. I use Ketogenic or Carbolight bread mix interchangeable in this recipe, both work fine for me. Don’t expect the crust to be just like the one from a pizza parlor, it never gets really, really crisp, but it is very good.
Sue
Low Carb Garlic Herb Pizza Crust
1 cup low carb Bread Mix (Carbolite, Ketogenic...)
1 teaspoon rapid rise yeast
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder (more or less to taste)
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning (not salad dressing mix)
2 teaspoon Chopped Chives (I use dried chives)
¼ teaspoon Marjoram
¾ cup warm water (about 100 degrees)
3 Tbs. Olive oil (I use a Basil flavored oil)
2 Tbs. Grated Parmesan Cheese
Mix together all the dry ingredients, including the grated cheese.
Add the water and the oil to dry ingredients and mix well. The dough will be very thick and sticky.
Cover the bowl with a damp towel and let it sit in a larger bowl of warm water (half way up the outside of the dough bowl) for 15-20 minutes (you don’t have to do this step if you are in a hurry, but it is better if you do).
Heat oven to 350 degrees.
Transfer dough to a well oiled 12” pizza pan (I line mine with cooking parchment sprayed with Pam on both sides as it makes clean-up easy).
Press out the dough into a 10-12” circle, making the edges a little thicker for a crust.
Bake for 15-20 minutes.
Add sauce and toppings of your choice and bake again for 15 more minutes, until toppings are hot and bubbly.
I use Classico Brand pasta sauce on my pizza. It is the lowest carb one that I have been able to find in my area.
