Low Carb Pizza Burger
This is one of those recipes that isn’t quite a recipe. The write up at the bottom will be non traditional since there is a video and minimal ingredients involved.
If you are a lover of pizza you will fall head over heels for this Low Carb Pizza Burger made with fathead dough. If you don’t eat low carb, just use regular dough. The pizza burger is ground beef with herbs and sauce mixed together. You make patties and then top with pepperoni and mozzarella. Wrap the burger in dough so it encompasses it all that pizza yumminess.
If you are unfamiliar with the fathead style dough, it is low carb and keto friendly. It uses approved ingredients and works just like regular dough. You can use it for mini or full-size pizza crust, calzones and more. Having a keto-friendly version that tastes delicious, has been a game changer for me! This crust is a nice and golden flakey crust that is very delicious!
So whether you use pizza crust or Fathead style dough, this recipe will please your taste buds, and your family will be begging for more! You won’t be disappointed you tried this recipe out! You can also get creative with other toppings in you want, add in some crisp green bell peppers or mushrooms to take it to a whole new level!
This recipe is quick and easy to make, which is the beautiful part of it! I have added this into our families dinner rotation because it is that good! Make sure to give this recipe a try, and let me know in the comments what you think!

Hi. This sounds awesome!! Do you think I can substitute almond flour for coconut flour & if so can you provide measurements? I’m going to try the no bake keto cookies tomorrow. Love your recipes!
Kind regards,

HI Ayah!
Thank you so much <3
We haven't made this recipe with any other flours so I can't say for sure, however you can simply follow a fathead recipe that uses your desired flour and just wrap your burger! 🙂
