INGREDIENT NOTES:

MOZZARELLA CHEESE:

  • The naan gets a chewy, stretchy feel from the melting mozzarella cheese. Additionally, it adds a golden color & flavor when it browns perfectly in the oven. This cheese forms the dough’s primary structure.

CREAM CHEESE:

  • The cores of the naan remain soft & supple because of the cream cheese. It enhances the cheese by adding a rich, creamy flavor. Additionally, it aids in binding the dough.

ALMOND FLOUR:

  • A low-carb substitute for ordinary flour is almond flour. It adds a soft crumb & a hint of nutty flavor to the naan. Additionally, it keeps the dough’s structure intact.

EGGS:

  • The egg holds the dough together by acting as a binder. It contributes to a golden finish & provides moisture when baked. Additionally, it aids in the dough’s small rise.

BAKING POWDER:

  • Baking powder adds airiness & lightness to the naan. It aids in the dough’s puffing when baking. It also guarantees that the texture isn’t overly thick.

GARLIC POWDER:

  • It provides a light savory taste. It improves the naan’s flavor in general. It goes nicely with herbs & cheese.

SALT:

  • Salt enhances every other flavor in the dough. It counterbalances the cheeses’ richness. Additionally, it enhances the naan’s overall flavor.

KETO PIZZA SAUCE:

  • Sugar-free pizza sauce delivers a zesty tomato flavor without adding extra carbohydrates. It maintains the pizza’s keto status. It complements the cheese & garnishes nicely.

PEPPERONI PIZZA SLICES:

  • Slices of pepperoni give the pizza a flavorful, slightly spicy taste. They crisp up nicely in the oven, to keep it satisfying; they also add fat & protein.

DRIED OREGANO:

  • Dried oregano adds a traditional Italian flavor. It adds depth & aroma to the pizza. It is the ideal accompaniment to the tomato sauce & cheese.

OLIVE OIL:

  • Olive oil spray gives a slight richness & keeps things from sticking. It facilitates uniform crust browning. Additionally, it improves the cooked naan’s flavor.
