What is Fat Head pizza? – Wait … there’s a movie?
Fat Head is a comedy-documentary by Tom Naughton (comedian and former health writer). Well, actually, for anyone who doesn’t know, fat head pizza was created by Tom Naughton’s oldest brother’s oldest son. I know… kind of a mouthful.
The documentary explains how low cholesterol is unhealthy as well as saturated fat does not cause heart disease but instead of sugars, grains, starches, and processed vegetable oils do.
Ever since it has been named in honor of his Fat Head Movie.

The Holy Grail of Low-Carb Pizzas – Fat Head Pizza
Since I originally published the post, I’ve updated it to include bigger and better things!
Here’s what I added to this post and the recipe.
- Now, the pizza has a super-thin crust.
- I also added the quick-cooking video and an alternative coconut flour option for the crust.
As I continue trying out this pizza in different ways, I’ll make sure to keep you posted.
But I have to say—if you miss pizza since going low carb, then this recipe is for you!
What Is In Fat Head Pizza?
This low- carb pizza is grain-free, gluten-free, low-carb, and incredibly filling.
The base is made from the following low-carb ingredients:
- Cheese
- Cream cheese
- Egg
- Ground almonds/almond flour
My children now prefer this to regular pizza, and they make it themselves.
One of the best things we can do as a parent is to teach our children to cook, bake, and experiment with eating new and exciting recipes. It is a gift we can pass to our children for the rest of their lives.
Cooking is a life skill, ordering pizza from an app isn’t – although, you may beg to differ on that one.

Add all your favourite toppings -
Sprinkle with more cheese -
Bake until golden -
Slice, serve, enjoy.
How to bake thin crispy keto fat head pizza
The trick is to roll out the mozzarella dough super thin using 2 sheets of baking parchment as shown in the step-by-step instructions and cooking video.
TOP TIP: Press a fork over the base to make little indentations to allow the keto pizza bast to cook evenly AND turn the keto pizza base over mid cooking so it cooks and bakes on both sides.
This guarantees a super crispy thin pizza crust.
How to store fat head pizza
Once the pizza base has been cooked, then you can store it in the freezer for up to 2 months. Wrap in baking parchment and place in an airtight container or large ziplock bag to prevent “freezer burn”.
You cannot store the unbaked pizza dough because the raw egg has been warmed by the melting cheese. it mUST be cooked before storing.
Any leftover pizza (I know, that’s surely impossible) can be stored in a similar way. Wrap in baking parchment and place in an airtight container or large ziplock bag.
Keto Pizza vs. Low-Carb Pizza
Does an entire pizza normally disappear before your eyes?
When you eat traditional pizza with a wheat base, do you eat and eat and eat and cannot stop at just one or two slices? Yeah, I’ve done that too.
But, I’ll admit it…there is no way you can over-eat with fat head pizza.
Fat head pizza is incredibly rich, but that’s the point. You cannot overindulge. Most people can only handle one, or possibly two, slices. Add a side salad and you’ve got a great Friday night movie meal!

Instructions
-
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 (see photos above). Remove the top 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 over (onto baking paper/parchment) once the top has browned.
-
Once cooked, remove from the oven and add all the toppings you like. Make sure any meat is already cooked as this time it goes back into the oven just to heat up the toppings and melt the cheese. Bake again at 220C/425F for 5 minutes.
Notes
Nutrition panel is for base only as toppings will vary widely depending on what was added and how much.
