Paleo Pizza Crust
Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup of coconut flour.
- 1 cup of organic full fat coconut milk
- 2 tsp of garlic powder
- 1/2 baking soda
- 1 crushed garlic clove
Instructions
preheat your oven to 375f
Prep cookie sheet or pizza pan by covering it with parchment paper to fit the bottom of the pan. Brush with coconut oil.
lightly beat eggs, milk an garlic (both). in a bowl till smooth. Mix wet and dry ingredients and whisk well until it thickens up a little. This will be more like a batter….not so much dough. Sorry no pizza dough throwing or spinning!
Spread the batter on the already prepped pan.
Bake for 20 mins or until it’s golden brown. Remove from oven. Flip over (carefully).
Add your toppings.
For a sauce I used organic tomato paste with 1/2 can of crushed tomatoes, garlic and fresh herbs (oregano and basil).
Broil for for about 10 mins, checking making sure not to burn the edges.
Enjoy! (Yes, we have cheese on our pizza, I made this for the kids and they demanded cheese!!!!!)
anxious to try this one…have been looking for a substitute for ages!!!! Thanks Josee
hi Josee,
my wife and i are just reading your paleo pizza crust recipe and have a couple of questions:
1) 1/2 “what” of baking soda? tsp? Tbsp? cup? not sure.
2) is there a missing ingredient,ie: almond meal and if so how much?
the reason i ask #2 is that all of the other recipes i’ve been able to find include almond (or some other nut) meal/flour but yours does not have it listed but looks fantastic. i can’t figure out how it becomes a crust using mostly just eggs.
thanks for helping out.
cheers,
Frank
Hey Shelly, glad to hear. Have your kids make true own and dress it up with their own toppings! Enjoy
Sorry about the msg info. It’s tsp of baking soda and no there are no missing ingredients. It’s made with coconut flour and no nut flour. Problem with nut flours such as almond flour is that once it reaches a certain temp it oxidizes and causes free radicals. So recently I started favoring coconut flour and trying new recipes.
Sorry there is missing the coconut flour. I can’t believe I forgot the most important ingredient …..1/2 cup of coconut flour.
Hey ,
Looks great. Where do you get your coconut flour and coconut milk? Can’t wait to try this one!
coconut milk You can buy pretty much anywhere, I use the brand that’s at baxtroms in the health/organic section. The coconut flour can be found at bulk barn, again organic!
wow, looks sooo good! going to definitely try this!
Hey. Tried the pizza on Saturday night. Crust turned out a bit cake like. It was nice and fluffy. Aost like cupcakes. How’d it get crusty like in the photos?
I cooked it on a pizza pan. try making it a little thinner when spreading the dough. If you like thin and crunchy pizza crust, try the paleo crackers as a pizza crust.
This turned out perfect! We had tried a crust off Everyday Paleo with almond flour and it was grainy like a pie crumb texture. To be honest it didn’t do the food any justice and we were left unsatisfied. When i stumbled onto your recipe i promised my hubby it would be better next time.
I must say i am full of delicious pizza right now. I use organic mozzarella because the man is a reluctant paleo eater, since i cook only that he really has no choice. He gave this crust 2 thumbs up and devoured the other 2/3 of the pizza.
Awesome recipe! It came out perfect! I decided on caramelized onions, mushrooms and goat cheese. Thanks!
Glad to hear!! MMM Goat cheese didn’t think of that.
The crust turned out great! This is an instant hit in our household!! Toppings tonight included tomato sauce, zuchinni, italian sausage, carmelized onions, sun dried tomatoes, artichoke antipasto (from Trader Joes) and Peperoni. Can’t wait to make this again with different toppings. This meal just made it in the rotation of go to foods in our house!!
The BEST paleo pizza crust ever. I made it into a square crust since I dont have a pizza pan… topped with: bison, bacon, every italian cold cut imaginable, marinara, tomato paste, and tomato sauce (all from trader joes), along with brocolli, spinach, onions and mushrooms… TO DIE FOR. I love the hint of the coconut you get in the crust… mmm made great lunch left-over too
Going to try this recipe out tonight. Been totally craving some pizza, and we tried the Everyday Paleo recipe, and like Tina Swaney said is was more for a dessert and not for pizza. We’re going to put ground Bison, from Wild Idea Buffalo, tomato, green onion, red pepper, artichoke and some cheese (another thing that we normally don’t eat, but have some bad cravings for [: ), and of course some organic marinara. Can’t wait, I’m starvin’ right now!
Going to try this recipe out tonight. Been craving some pizza in a bad way, and we tried the Everyday Paleo recipe, and like Tina Swaney said is was more for a dessert and not for pizza.

Tried this, better then Everyday Paleo’s recipe, but didn’t hit the pizza craving spot. Still a little crumbly. Guess when I want pizza I’ll still make my own, but will use wheat flour and yeast for the dough.
it’s a bummer, but I like the doughy crust better, and I figure since I’m making it at home with organic ingredients and stuff that doesn’t have GMO’s in it then that’s better then buying a frozen pizza or getting one from a restaurant.
We def enjoyed making this crust and really like your website. However, Ifound the crust too sweet. Anyone else?
Has anyone tried it with lite coconut milk? I wonder how it would turn out.
We’ve been doing a modified Paleo/Primal/Keto sort of diet for a bit now and were dying for some pizza so we decided to try this recipe. The batter came out great and was easy to spread into a nice thin round pie. We cooked it on our pizza pan and it turned out very pretty and uniform. The flavor was very similar to white bread (like Wonder Bread), not to sweet or salty (we did add 1/8 tsp salt to the batter) and help up to all the toppings without crumbling or turning into a soggy mess. The only trouble we had was in getting it crispy. The edges got a little crispy but none of it ever got pizza-crust-crisp. In the future I may experiment with it a little to see if I can get it a little more crisp and a little more chewy like traditional pizza dough but all in all it was a success!
Made this for dinner tonight….it was so easy and so tasty!
This will definaty be a regular receipe for me to use.
Thank you!!!
I tried this, and I do not now what I did wrong, but the crust was not very good. After I mixed the ingredients up, the mixture became this thick doe. When I put the doe on the parchment paper, it did not look like the texture of what your picture seems to be. Your picture seems to me, to have a think, liquid like texture on the parchment paper.
We did it! It was the most delicious pizza ever!! Thank you for sharing all of your recipes!
Hey, looks great & I’ll definitely be trying this recipe out – thanks for sharing!
My only concern is with the use of canned crushed tomatoes for the sauce. I would strongly recommend doing some reading about Bisphenol-A (BPA) which is a chempical used in the lining of most canned foods and has been linked to cancer (amongst other things). Canned tomatoes are especially bad, as the high acidity of the tomatoes causes the BPA to leach out of the lining of the cans & into the tomatoes.
This is the first paleo/grain free pizza crust I’ve tried that actually worked! Thank-you for a great recipe!
Awesome! My boyfriend and I also tried the almond meal crust previously (everyday paleo), and it was really GROSS, verging on inedible.
But this hit the spot…and I’m making it again on my own today. 
I didn’t have any parchment paper, so mine was really hard to flip, thus causing me to lost the bottom part of my crust. I still haven’t made it to the store to get parchment paper yet; so…I’m going to make them mini pizzas on the griddle, then put the sauce, toppings (sausage, pepperoni…cheese…(oops!)….and broil in the oven to get it crispy. I’ll take pics and let you know how it turns out…Thanks for this recipe. It really hits the pizza craving without totally cheating on my Paleo diet. (Minus the cheese!)
We made this crust last night & it was FABULOUS! I spread the batter/dough very thin in a rectangle shape. Followed the instructions & it couldn’t have worked out better! It didn’t get soggy after adding toppings & we could even pick it up to eat it. THANK YOU!
I’ve been “gluten free” for a year, but I am 3 days into grain-free. I made this recipe today and wanted to thank you for sharing this with us. It will certainly become a regular on my menu. It’s great option.
I was so excited to use this but did something wrong, my crust stuck to the paper.. Someone please help, I really wanted this to work. Suggestions please
HMMMM, Not sure, did you use parchment paper or waxed paper?
Having an egg allergy I substituted a Tb of ground flax + 3 TB warm water per egg and it turned out pretty good.
Omg this was so good, i loved it so much it turned out so good.
Hey I have a immune defishencesy I have got to go on this diet and looking forward to having a poileo pizza.
what size did you spread your pizza crust out to? I used a 12″ heart shaped pan and it looks kinda thick and smells like eggs (cake). Maybe I should have used a bigger pan and made it thinner? Also, I had to use regular full fat dairy milk. Im ready to top it in a few minutes, and I can’t waittttt! lol So far I have baked it for 25 min (I flipped it over at 20 min).
I used a large pizza pan and spread it out to approx 35-40 cm diameter. I made the crust as thin as possible.
WOW!!!! I made mini crusts for a Moroccan salmon spread and they turned out so well! I’m excited too as this is the first recipe I’ve found that makes it feel like I’m eating something bread-like…thank you!!!
I made the pizza as directed and was very impressed. My only question would be, how can I get the crust to crisp up a little better?
Made this and so far it’s the best crust I’ve made, I used to combine the PaleOMG and Paleo Plan together… I read the comments as my crust was baking and this is the suggestion I have:
If it comes out to soft or spongy, flip it and bake it for another 5 to 10 min until the center is done to your liking, remember you’ll still have to broil it so keep an eye on it.
I made this tonight and it was SO good!!!! My husband and kids loved it too! I actually made 5 small personal pizzas with it and let everyone do their own toppings. That made dinner fun!
HA!Do not put a 1/2 cup of baking soda in it tastes awful
I will try again.
I would have liked to see a photo of the crust after baking and before toppings. This recipe did not work for me as it is written. I’m wondering if something is missing.
I wonder if after baking the crust and before broiling if you brushed the crust with an egg and baking soda solution that it would help with the crispiness. I will try this recipe once I acquire a pizza pan. I think the Lodge cast iron one should do the trick.
Mine batter pre cooked was not pourable as it looks in the picture so I could not thin it out enough to not make it cake-like. Wondering if I should’ve added more milk, water, or eggs? I guessed a 1/2 tsp of baking soda because i’ve never cooked something with more than a tsp of baking soda in it.
I’ve been to 4 different stores looking for the main ingredient: coconut flour. I live in Long Beach, CA so if anyone has any suggestions to where to get some let me know. I was really looking forward to some Paleo pizza tonight…:-/
I was so excited to see this, but I’m allergic to coconut. Would this work with almond flour/milk instead?
It is baking SODA not baking POWDER correct? I am new into the paleo cooking and I have never used SODA in a recipe ever. Please let me know.
Can’t wait to try this out. We have been missing pizza, especially my hubby.
To Jaz in Long Beach, we are in San Diego and have found that the major grocery stores (Ralph’s, Vons, Albertsons, Stater Bros) all have coconut flour. It’s usually on the baking isle but separate from the regular flours and sugars. Just ask someone for it…it’s “Bob’s Red Mill” brand. It’s also available at places like Whole Foods, Henry’s and Sprouts but I think the grocery stores are cheaper. Good luck!
Quick question to anyone that has made this…Do you use just the thick part of the coconut milk or stir up the can and use a mixture?
I thought this was much better than the almond crust from Everyday Paleo, and I even kinda liked it, but my boyfriend was not a fan. Mine did not come out runny AT ALL. It was very thick and a bit grainy. I had to spread it by hand in the pan. I forgot to use the coconut oil and was afraid it would stick but it flipped just fine. It was not firm enough to be able to pick it up and eat it like a piece of pizza. We had to eat it with a fork. It definitely did have a coconut taste to it so you want to make sure your sauce has a lot of flavor and that you use an adequate amount of cheese and toppings to offset that. Overall, I would choose this one over the almond flour one we tried but we will keep looking.
