Crispy keto pizza chips deliver irresistible Italian-inspired flavor without carb guilt. Cheesy, seasoned rounds make perfect snacking companions for health-conscious individuals craving pizza’s essence.
Ingredients
Scale
Cheese:
- 2 cups (480 milliliters) shredded mozzarella cheese
Protein Topping:
- 12 slices pepperoni
Seasonings:
- ½ teaspoon (2.5 milliliters) Italian seasoning
Optional Serving:
- Keto pizza sauce (for dipping)
Instructions
- Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper, ensuring a non-stick surface for easy cheese chip removal.
- Distribute mozzarella cheese in small, evenly spaced mounds across the prepared baking sheet, allowing sufficient room for spreading during baking.
- Enhance the cheese mounds with a generous sprinkle of Italian seasoning, infusing a classic pizza flavor profile into each crispy chip.
- Carefully position a single pepperoni slice at the center of each cheese mound, creating a visually appealing and flavorful base.
- Position the baking sheet in a preheated oven set at 375°F (190°C), monitoring the transformation of cheese into golden, crisp chips.
- Observe the chips closely during the final minutes of baking, waiting until the edges develop a rich, caramelized golden-brown color.
- Once achieved, extract the baking sheet and allow the chips to rest momentarily, enabling them to solidify and develop a satisfying crunch.
- Gently transfer the cooled chips to a serving plate, preserving their delicate texture and optimal crispiness.
- Accompany the keto pizza chips with a side of low-carb pizza sauce, creating a delectable dipping experience that complements the savory chips.
Notes
- Prep with parchment paper to ensure easy chip removal and prevent messy cleanup.

- Serve immediately for optimal texture and enjoy with low-carb pizza sauce.
