Ingredients

For the Keto Dough (Fathead Style)

• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 oz cream cheese
• 1 ½ cups almond flour
• 1 large egg
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning

For the Filling

• ¾ cup sliced pepperoni
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
• 1 tablespoon melted butter
• ½ teaspoon dried oregano

Ingredient Notes

• Almond flour keeps this bread low-carb and gluten-free while giving it structure.
• Mozzarella cheese creates that classic stretchy, chewy texture.
• Cream cheese makes the dough soft and easy to work with.
• Pepperoni adds bold, savory flavor — choose nitrate-free for a healthier option.
• Italian seasoning and garlic powder bring that irresistible pizza taste.

These ingredients work together to mimic traditional bread without the carbs or sugar.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line your baking dish with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Make the Keto Dough

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine shredded mozzarella and cream cheese. Microwave for about 60–90 seconds, stirring halfway, until melted and smooth.

Add almond flour, baking powder, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and egg. Mix quickly until a soft dough forms. The dough will be slightly sticky but pliable.

Step 3: Roll and Fill

Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll it into a large rectangle about ¼-inch thick.

Sprinkle shredded mozzarella evenly across the surface. Add pepperoni slices, spreading them throughout so every bite is flavorful and cheesy.

Step 4: Slice and Stack

Using a pizza cutter, cut the dough into even squares or strips. Carefully stack or arrange them upright in your baking dish to create the pull-apart effect.

This layering gives you those beautiful golden edges and gooey cheese pockets.

Step 5: Bake Until Golden

Brush the top with melted butter and sprinkle Parmesan and oregano over it.

Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly. The cheese should be melted and slightly crispy on the edges.

Let it cool for 5–10 minutes before pulling apart.

Serving Suggestions

This keto pepperoni mozzarella pull-apart bread is incredibly versatile:

• Serve with warm sugar-free marinara sauce for dipping
• Pair with a crisp Caesar salad for a complete keto dinner
• Bring it to parties as a low-carb appetizer
• Enjoy as a healthy after-school snack

It’s perfect for sharing — though you may not want to. 😉

Pro Tips & Variations

Want to customize it? Try adding chopped jalapeños for heat or cooked sausage for extra protein. You can swap pepperoni for turkey pepperoni to reduce fat slightly. For a garlic-lover’s version, mix fresh minced garlic into the melted butter before brushing on top.

Leftovers store beautifully in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to restore that crispy texture. You can even freeze slices individually for quick keto snacks anytime.

Storage Information

• Refrigerator: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
• Freezer: Freeze for up to 1 month.
• Reheating: Bake at 350°F for 5–8 minutes or air fry until warm and crispy.

Avoid microwaving if possible — it softens the texture.
