KETO PIZZA MUFFINS INGREDIENTS:
This section is where I share a few suggestions and explanations for the ingredients you’ll need for this recipe.
(You can find the exact amounts needed on the recipe card embedded below this section).
Store-bought shredded cheese often has added potato starch to prevent clumping, which increases its’ carb count. That’s why I recommend buying a cheese block and grating it yourself.
The right almond flour can make or break a recipe, especially when it comes to baking.
That’s why I highly recommend using defatted almond flour.
It’s very different from most other kinds of almond flours out there as it has most of its natural fat content removed and thus behaves very differently compared to other kinds of almond flour and is much better suited for most keto baking recipes.
Most brands simply sell finely ground almond meal as almond flour, which can be fine for some recipes and is cheaper, but it has more calories (by a lot) and is not the best fit for most keto baking recipes.
It has more fat and can cause recipe failures because of this, like melted cookies.
Defatted almond flour like this one from Sukrin, is much lower in calories, has a naturally high protein content and – most importantly – is the best replacement for wheat flour I’ve ever come across (and I’ve tried a lot).
look for a gluten-free version without corn starch for paleo-friendly option or make your own one
HOW TO MAKE THE KETO PIZZA MUFFINS:
Preheat your oven to 350°F/180°C.
Dice the tomatoes and put them in a large bowl.
Cut the mini pepperoni into small slices and save about 5 pepperoni slices per muffin - these will be used to decorate the pizza muffins before baking.
Add the remaining pepperoni slices to the large bowl as well.
Add the dry ingredients to the bowl and mix well.
Now add the remaining ingredients for the muffins and mix everything with a spoon or spatula until you get an even dough.
Add 6 paper or silicone muffin liners into a muffin pan. Distribute the muffin batter evenly among the muffin liners.
☝︎ A silicone muffin pan is even better as you don't need muffin liners at all and it is also super easy to clean.
Place the pepperoni slices you set aside in step 2 on top of your pizza muffins.
Bake for approx. 15 minutes in your preheated oven.
Let the finished low carb pizza muffins cool slightly before enjoying them.
Store the keto pizza muffins in an airtight container in the fridge - the muffins will keep for about 2-3 days before they start to dry out a bit.
Tip: You can freeze these muffins!
To do so, wrap them tightly with a layer of plastic wrap and then a layer of aluminum foil and place them in your freezer.
Let them defrost at room temperature for a few hours once you're ready to eat them.
