We have been researching greatly, and have never seen anything like this.  This bread is delicious without butter.  It is moist and has a wonderful taste and texture.  We have had it for dinner with family and everyone loves it--including the kids!  We are so thrilled to share it with you.  All we ask is that you put a comment on our site to let us know what you think!  Enjoy!

With love,
Thin and Thinner

Low-Carb Pizza by Thin and Thinner (New Recipe!!)

Low-Carb Pizza by Thin and Thinner

This recipe makes a delicious pizza that is appealing to the eye as well as delicious. It is quick and easy to make. It received the seal of approval from my not-so-low-carb husband!
Ingredients:
Crust:
½ cup almond flour
½ tsp. baking powder
1/16 tsp. xanthan gum
¼ tsp. salt
1 packet of Truvia
¼ cup of shredded cheddar cheese
1 beaten egg

Topping*:

2 tbsp. tomato sauce
1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
8 thin slices of pepperoni

Directions:

Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
Whisk almond flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, salt, Truvia, and cheese until well blended.
Add the beaten egg. Mix well.
Pour onto a buttered sheet of parchment paper on a large cookie sheet.
Spread batter on sheet as flat as possible with a spatula until it is a 6 inch round diameter.
Bake at 375 degrees for 14 minutes.
Transfer pizza crust to a sheet of tin foil and put it back on the cookie sheet.
Spread the tomato sauce on the crust.
Add the mozzarella and pepperoni.
Fold the foil over any exposed crust (so that it will not burn under the broiler).
Broil for 2 minutes.

Slice into 4 wedges with a pizza cutter.

Serves 2

(4 net carbs plus Truvia for entire crust)

* Any of your favorite pizza toppings will work on this!

Low Carb Bread

Low Carb Bread

This bread can be used to make a delicious grilled cheese sandwich!

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon melted butter
1 egg
¼ cup almond flour
¼ teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon Splenda
a pinch of salt


Procedure:

** This can be made in a glass bowl, large mug, or sandwich-sized square Pyrex container.
Melt the butter for 35 seconds in the microwave.
Whisk in the egg.
Add the remaining ingredients, blending well.
Cover with plastic wrap. Poke a hole in the top.
Then, microwave for 1 minute and 25 seconds.
Cool on a wire rack.

I cut it into 2 pieces.

** The dough will take the shape of the container. I.e. a large mug will make a muffin, a flat plate will form a pancake. So don’t hesitate to get creative and throw in sugar-free chocolate chips, a tbsp of peanut butter, or a spoonful of pumpkin sweetened with Stevia...
