Pizza isn't usually a weight-loss meal.
But with a dough base made of eggs, it even becomes a low-carb favorite - and it works super quickly!
Do you love pizza?
But do you want
to largely do without carbohydrates
because of a
low-carb diet
?
Then here is the good news of the day for you: You can also bake pizza in a low-carb-friendly version – with a simple trick.
Eggs instead of yeast dough: This is how pizza becomes a low-carb recipe
What is pizza traditionally made with?
yeast dough*.
Wheat flour, sugar and yeast provide plenty of carbohydrates.
So the solution to making a
pizza suitable for low-carb
is to replace the dough.
And not with just anything, but with an ingredient that is also rich in protein: omelets.
You can add whatever you like to your other pizzas: mushrooms, peppers, corn, ham, salami, etc. In this way, the "normal" pizza can easily be turned into
an egg pizza
.
And the pizza is ready faster that way: no endless waiting for the yeast dough to rise!
No oven needed!
The egg pizza is simply baked
in the pan
.

Low-Carb Pizza: You need these ingredients for the egg pizza
Servings: for 2 people
Preparation time: 15 minutes Level of
difficulty: easy What
you need: a large pan with a lid
6 eggs
1 heaped tbsp flour
Topping to taste
e.g.
e.g.:
Tomato sauce
grated cheese
mushrooms
spring onions
tuna
paprika
oregano
Even healthier:
With buckwheat flour instead of wheat or spelled flour, the pizza is even healthier and of higher quality.

Make low-carb pizza yourself: recipe for quick egg pizza
Prepare the ingredients for the topping that you want to use: wash and dice vegetables, chop sausage, etc. Here's a trick to make slicing and deseeding peppers easier.
Heat a large non-stick pan with some oil on the stovetop on high.
Whisk together the eggs and flour until smooth and pour into the hot pan just like you would for making an omelet.
Let the omelette cook for about a minute.
Meanwhile, top the egg pizza according to your taste with the ingredients of your choice.
Turn the stove down to the lowest setting.
Place the lid on the pan and let the egg pizza cook until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted, about 10 minutes.
Then transfer the
egg pizza
to a large plate, cut into halves or quarters and are ready to serve.
Enjoy your meal!
