These keto pepperoni pizza rolls are basically like cinnamon rolls but made with pizza instead! And gluten free! They are perfect for game day or just a fun weekend treat for the whole family.
With only 3g net carbs per serving, these delicious rolls are a fun way to enjoy the taste of pizza but still keep it keto! Not following a keto diet? You’re still going to love these! They’re so fluffy and delicious, you’d never guess they are low carb. Our toddler love them!
Fluffy Dough
What’s the secret? I’ve used a combination of almond and chickpea flour as the base to create a tasty, fluffy dough that’s still low carb. Then I’ve added a few other ingredients to get that same stretch and hold you would get from gluten, ensuring that it will stick together when you roll it up.
Speaking of rolling it up, no reason to be intimidated by the rolling process! It’s really quite easy! Just use the parchment paper as a guide to roll and slightly compress as you go and roll into a big log. Then slice and you’re good to go! Super simple and no fancy skills required.
The Big Game is coming up and you know I’ll be making these yummy pizza rolls to enjoy! I picked up all of the ingredients for this recipe at Sprouts Farmers Market. Sprouts is my favorite place to shop for all of my specialty diet food! They have a huge selection of products that are perfect for keto baking and cooking! I love that I can stop by and they’ll have everything I’m looking for for my healthy recipes!

Keto Pizza Rolls
- Gluten-Free
- Low Carb
- Keto
Ingredients
- 4 Tbsp 56g salted butter
- 1 cup 112g fine blanched almond flour
- 1/2 cup 60g chickpea flour
- 4 tsp double acting aluminum-free baking powder
- 1 tsp psyllium husk powder
- 1/2 tsp xanthan gum
- 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
- 1 cup 112g shredded low moisture mozzarella, divided
- 2 large eggs 112g
- Olive oil for brushing
- 1 cup sugar-free marinara sauce divided
- 2 oz pepperoni
- Extra mozzarella for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350ºF (177ºC).
- Grease a 10-inch oven-safe skillet (I recommend cast iron).
- Melt butter in a glass measuring cup in oven as it preheats. Heat until just melted. If it's too hot it will cook the eggs in the dough.
- Combine dry ingredients. While butter is melting, whisk together 1 cup almond flour, 1/2 cup chickpea flour, 4 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp psyllium husk powder, 1/2 tsp xanthan gum, and 1/2 tsp sea salt in a large mixing bowl.
- Melt mozzarella. Once butter is melted, add 1/2 cup mozzarella to the butter and place back in the oven. Heat until softened, but not completely melted.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients. Add butter/cheese mixture and eggs to the dry ingredients and mix well until a dough forms. The dough should stick together well and be thick but not overly sticky.
- Roll out dough. Shape dough into a ball and place on a sheet of parchment paper. Begin flattening it into a rectangle shape with your palms. Place another sheet of parchment on top, then use a rolling pin to finish rolling out the dough. You want a rectangle around 11"x8" (28x20cm) and 1/4" (0.6cm) thickness.
- Add toppings. Brush dough lightly with olive oil. Spread on 1/2 cup marinara sauce in an even layer. Top with 1/2 cup mozzarella and 2oz pepperoni, spread out evenly.
- Roll up the dough. Using the parchment paper, carefully roll up the dough. Roll from top to bottom (toward your body) and use the parchment paper to guide the dough and press gently as you roll, just like rolling up sushi on a sushi mat. Once the roll is formed, gently squeeze down the length and press in the ends of the dough to make a compact log.
- Cut into pieces. Remove the parchment paper and score the dough into 8 even pieces. Very gently and slowly, cut into pieces using a very sharp chef's knife. Use your other hand to maintain the round shape of the log as you cut.
- Place in skillet. Carefully place the pieces in greased skillet, making sure to keep the free edge tucked. Sprinkle with a little extra mozzarella.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly.
- Serve hot with 1/2 cup warmed marinara for dipping.

Thanks for so many good “tried and true” recipes!
I know the work (trial and error) that goes into these because from experience it’s not easy converting our old family favorites into healthier recipes.
