Keto Spinach and Mushroom Pizza Bread Roll

5 ratings

This Keto pizza bread roll is a vegetarian’s delight! Each slice of this snack-worthy bread roll is filled with marinara, spinach, cremini mushrooms, fresh whole basil, and extra cheese. Enjoy a single slice of the pizza bread roll on the side of your complete lunch or dinner. However, each serving is so low-carb that you could enjoy 2-3 slices as a snack alone. Working with Fathead Dough can be a little tricky, especially if you are in warm temperatures. Any time your dough becomes too difficult to work with, simply return it to your refrigerator until it’s chilled enough to handle. As you fill and roll the dough, some small holes or tears may appear. Simply use your fingers to seal the dough back together!

Other Toppings To Include

Not vegetarian? No problem! There is room to substitute in your favorite pizza topping protein. The key to this pizza bread roll recipe is a little bit goes a long way - you won’t be able to do any heavy layers. Try adding thin-sliced pepperoni, shredded cooked chicken, or crumbled cooked Italian sausage. Or, instead of focusing on the filling, play with the top of the pizza bread roll! Keto toppings you can include are freshly grated parmesan cheese or thin slices of provolone that will bubble and brown on top. Other dried spices like basil, rosemary, or thyme will add complementary flavors to the bread roll.

Working With Fathead Dough

As mentioned above, working with Fathead Dough can be a little tricky for the Keto diet newbie. Since there is no gluten in Keto doughs, your Fathead Dough won’t have the elasticity your typical pizza dough will have, meaning it won’t stretch. Instead, you may get rips or tears in your dough if you pull it too thin. If the heat from your fingers is making small tears even bigger, you can use a drop of water to pull the dough back together. Your refrigerator will be your best friend, so return the dough to cool down anytime it’s becoming too soft. Chill your prepared dough product just before baking is another way to keep volume and shape in your oven.

Recipe Steps

steps 4

5 h 10 min

  • Step 1

    At least 4 hours before you want to bake your bread roll, make the Fathead Dough. In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour and baking powder. Whisk an egg together and stir it into the almond flour. Set the bowl aside. In a pot over low heat, melt the mozzarella and cream cheese together until you have a smooth, creamy, melted cheese.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Let the melted cheese cool for 30 seconds off the stove. Then, mix the melted cheese into the almond flour bowl. Mix and knead the wet dough until all the yellow and white streaks are gone. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and cool in your refrigerator for at least 4 hours before continuing.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    When you’re ready to bake, preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Roll the chilled Fathead Dough out between 2 pieces of parchment paper into a thin rectangle about 10x8 inches, lying horizontally in front of you. Spread the marinara across the dough, leaving a fair 2-inch border of empty space around the dough. On top of the marinara sauce, layer whole spinach leaves, thin-sliced mushrooms, whole or chopped fresh basil, and shredded mozzarella. Tuck the edge of the Fathead Dough that is closest to you over the pizza filling as pictured.
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    Lift the un-rolled pizza bread onto a sheet tray. Place the un-rolled pizza bread into your refrigerator to chill for an additional 10 minutes. When the dough is very cold, roll the Fathead Dough starting from the tucked edge into a tight roll. Arrange the roll so it’s fitting comfortably on your sheet tray, making sure the edge of the dough is tucked under the roll. Whisk the final amount of egg together and brush it over all the exposed Fathead Dough. Sprinkle the oregano over the roll and bake for 30 minutes or until the entire top is golden brown. Once cooled, slice the roll into 10 slices.

      I’ve tried this recipe twice. It’s absolutely delicious. I suggest being two people to roll up the dough for the very last step prior to placing it in the oven. My partner helped me the second time I made this and the dough hardly broke as we gently rolled it. It’s not a perfect roll but it’s very tasty!
