Low Carb Fathead Dough Recipe Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cup mozzarella cheese

- 3/4 cup almond flour
- 1 egg
- Optional: 1 teaspoon rosemary seasoning
Low Carb Fathead Dough Recipe Instructions
- Start by placing 1 3/4 cups of mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, and almond flour in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat it on high for exactly 1 minute.
- Add one egg to the heated mixture and stir it until all the ingredients come together.
- Allow the dough to cool for a couple of minutes before you handle it.
- Split the dough into two equal parts. This fathead dough recipe usually makes 2 medium size pizza crusts.
