How to Make Keto Pizza Chips the Easy Way
Grab your baking sheet and create small cheese mounds with enough space between them. Flatten each mound gently to ensure even cooking.
Sprinkle Italian seasoning across the cheese circles. Crown each mound with a pepperoni slice to give a pizza-like personality.
Slide the baking sheet into a preheated oven set at 375°F. Watch carefully as the edges transform into a gorgeous golden brown – this signals crispy perfection is near.
Let the chips rest for a few moments after removing from the oven. They’ll naturally firm up and develop a satisfying crunch. Transfer to a plate and enjoy immediately with your favorite low-carb dipping sauce.

Crispy Keto Pizza Chips Recipe
- Total Time: 17 minutes
- Yield: 3 1x
Description
Crispy keto pizza chips combine the zesty flavors of classic pizza with a low-carb crunch. Cheese, herbs, and pepperoni create a satisfying snack you’ll crave again and again.
Ingredients
- 2 cups (480 ml) mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 12 slices pepperoni
- ½ tsp (2.5 ml) italian seasoning
- Keto pizza sauce (for dipping)
Instructions
- Preparation: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, creating an optimal non-stick surface for cheese chip formation.
- Cheese Placement: Strategically drop mozzarella cheese mounds across the sheet, spacing them to allow natural spreading during baking.
- Seasoning and Topping: Sprinkle Italian seasoning over cheese mounds and center each with a pepperoni slice, building a robust flavor foundation.
- Baking Process: Position the sheet in an oven preheated to 375°F (190°C), tracking the cheese’s transformation into crisp, golden chips.
- Monitoring and Cooling: Watch chips closely as edges caramelize to a rich golden-brown, then remove and let rest momentarily to solidify and develop a satisfying crunch.
- Serving: Delicately transfer cooled chips to a serving plate, pairing with low-carb pizza sauce for an enhanced dipping experience that complements the savory, crisp texture.
Notes
- Cheese Selection: Use full-fat, low-moisture mozzarella for the best crispy texture and optimal melting performance.
- Spacing Matters: Leave at least 1-2 inches between cheese mounds to prevent merging and ensure individual chip formation.
- Watch Closely: Baking time varies between 5-7 minutes; ovens differ, so monitor chips to avoid burning or undercooking.
- Cooling Technique: Let chips cool completely on the baking sheet to achieve maximum crunchiness and prevent sogginess.
