Ingredients
 
 

FatHead Pizza Base

  • 170 g shredded/grated cheese mozzarella is the best or Edam/mild cheese
  • 85 g almond meal/flour
  • 2 tbsp cream cheese
  • 1 eggs – medium
  • salt to taste
  • ½ tsp dried rosemary/ garlic or other flavourings optional

Green FatHead Toppings

  • 1 zucchini/ courgette finely sliced
  • handful fresh mint finely sliced
  • 1/2 spring onion/scallion finely sliced
  • feta crumbled

Instructions

FatHead Pizza Base

  • Mix the shredded/grated cheese and almond flour/meal in a microwaveable bowl. Add the cream cheese. Microwave on HIGH for 1 minute.
  • Stir then microwave on HIGH for another 30 seconds.
  • Add the egg, salt, rosemary and any other flavourings, mix gently.
  • Place in between 2 pieces of baking parchment/paper and roll into a circular pizza shape. Remove the top piece of baking paper/parchment. If the mixture hardens and becomes difficult to work with, pop it back in the microwave for 10-20 seconds to soften again but not too long or you will cook the egg.
  • Make fork holes all over the pizza base to ensure it cooks evenly.
  • Slide the baking paper/parchment with the pizza base, on a baking tray (cookie tray) or pizza stone, and bake at 220C/425F for 12-15 minutes, or until brown.
  • To make the base really crispy and sturdy, flip the pizza base over (onto baking paper/parchment) once the top has browned.
  • Once cooked, remove from the oven and add all the toppings. Sprinkle the spring onion and mint then top with very very thin slices of zucchini/courgettes and finally crumbled feta.
  • Bake again at 220C/425F for 5 minutes.

Notes

Fat Head pastry can also be made by replacing the almond meal/flour with 1/4 cup (4 tbsp) coconut flour.
Nutrition panel is for base only as toppings will vary widely depending on what was added and how much.

    When you flip the crust over to make it crispier – how much more cooking time do you allow for this extra step? After this extra time – you add the toppings and bake some more, right? Tks.

    1. I flip it over and cook only for another couple of minutes. It allows the base to brown on both sides and becomes quite sturdy. Then you add the toppings, bake again only for a couple of minutes to allow the toppings to warm through.

  2. This sounds great. My hubby probably has Eos. Esoph. which medicine actually admits for once is a food related disorder. Seems to come from dairy. BUT, he seems to do okay with goat and sheep cheese. I think I can figure out a sub for the mozzerella, but I don’t know about the cream cheese. Would chevre be too crumbly? My kids would really like this.—Terri

    Hi Libby, can you make this recipe without a microwave?

  4. Catherine says:

    Hi,

    Re nutritional info and calories for the FatHead pizza i.e NUTRITION INFORMATION
    Serving size: 1 Slice (makes 6) Calories: 203 Fat: 16.8g Carbohydrates: 4g Sugar: 1g Fibre: 1.6g Protein: 11g

    Is it 203 calories per slice once you’ve cut the whole pizza into 6 slices?

    Or 203 calories for the whole pizza?.

    Many thanks
    Catherine

  5. How many ounces for the cheese and Almond milk? I see two different amounts here.

    1. 6oz cheese, 3oz almond meal/flour

  6. Gosh luv your site, so much great value but the ads are so frigging annoying.. Do you have control over this? or it is google? Sorry just had to say somthing

    1. Julie Lowe says:

      I wholeheartedly agree. And is there a printable version of the recipes without all the ads, etc.?

  7. Any ideas for substitutions for Almond flour? I am allergic to almonds. ?

    1. Nanabella says:

      Sesame flour, maybe, or coconut flour… you would need to research how to adjust quantities to sub coconut for almond flour… coconut needs more liquid…

    Hi Libby, i LOVE your blog and recipes and that you are super friendly and helpful, but not so much your website!. I am finding the sheer volume of pop up ads causes me (as I have no idea about others – maybe you could do a vote on the fb page?), such an issue loading up pages and the constant refreshing …. it’s driving me mad when I’m trying to read your blog and recipes! Please can you consider an alternative way of reaching us DTC ‘s users ?…. books of your recipes – ebooks or paperbacks, as an alternative income stream? I do appreciate that you need to earn on this. Thanks for considering my request and for all that you do ?

    1. I completely understand your frustrations, I’m afraid the adverts allow my entire website to be free of charge – for everyone. The adverts pay for all my website hosting, email hosting, an assistant, graphics, videos … and of course all my time. I want to help those who need help the most but cannot afford it. If I were only to give my recipes and tips in books to purchase, I would receive complaints that nothing is available unless I charge you. To stop seeing adverts, or to control how often, I do believe some browsers will allow you to change your advert settings. That would be a quick and easy solution. I apologise that they are a nuisance. 🙂

      1. Jane Chambers says:

        Hi Libby, I really appreciate your comprehensive and honest reply … i completely understand… in fact I’m sorry I had such a moan now! I so love your site and access to your great recipes i will soldier on and battle on through the ads with a greater appreciation. Thank you ?
