How to Make Keto Pull-Apart Pizza Bread
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) for at least 15 minutes to ensure even baking.
Step 2: Prepare the Dough
Cut the keto pizza dough into small, bite-sized pieces.
Place the pieces in a large bowl and lightly coat them with olive oil. This helps create crispy edges during baking.
Step 3: Layer the Ingredients
Grease a bundt pan or fluted tube pan.
- Add a layer of dough pieces.
- Sprinkle shredded mozzarella generously.
- Add beef slices evenly across the layer.
- Dust with garlic powder.
Repeat the layering process until the pan is about two-thirds full. Finish with a final layer of dough on top.
Step 4: Bake
Bake for 30–40 minutes, or until golden brown and fully cooked in the center.
Step 5: Cool and Remove
Allow the bread to rest for 5–10 minutes.
Carefully invert onto a serving plate.
Step 6: Serve
Pull apart and serve warm with low-carb marinara sauce.
