These keto pizza chips are crispy, cheesy, and incredibly easy to make with just two ingredients. A perfect low-carb snack that satisfies cravings without guilt.There are days when cravings hit hard — not for something fancy or complicated, but for something simple, salty, crispy… and comforting. I remember one late evening when I was deep into my keto journey, and all I could think about was pizza. Not a full meal, just that cheesy, slightly crispy bite with those familiar flavors.
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup turkey pepperoni
-
Start by preheating your oven to 200°C (400°F) so it reaches the right temperature before baking. While the oven is heating, take a baking tray and line it neatly with parchment paper, making sure it covers the entire surface. Smooth out any wrinkles so the cheese spreads evenly and doesn’t stick during baking.
-
Take the shredded cheese and place small portions onto the tray, spacing them a few inches apart. Keep each portion roughly the same size so they cook evenly. Gently shape them into small circles without pressing too hard, as they will naturally spread once they start melting.
-
Place a few pieces of turkey pepperoni on top of each cheese portion. Lightly press them down with your fingers so they stay in place while baking. Avoid pressing too hard, as you still want the cheese to rise and crisp around the edges.
-
Carefully place the tray into the preheated oven and bake for about 6–8 minutes. Keep an eye on them during the last couple of minutes, as they can quickly go from perfectly golden to overcooked. You’re looking for lightly browned edges and bubbling cheese in the center.
-
Once done, remove the tray from the oven and let the chips sit undisturbed for a few minutes. This cooling step is important because it allows the cheese to firm up and develop that crispy texture. Trying to move them too early may cause them to break.
-
After they have cooled slightly and feel firm, gently lift each chip using a spatula. Serve them immediately while they are still warm and crispy for the best texture and flavor.
