Can I use coconut flour instead of almond flour?

Sure, but keep in mind coconut flour absorbs more moisture, so you’ll need less of it (about ⅓ cup). The texture will be slightly different, but it still works well.

Is the blue cheese necessary?

Nope! Blue cheese is one of those love-it-or-hate-it ingredients. If it’s not your thing, just skip it or replace it with extra mozzarella or cheddar.

Can I make this dairy-free?

Making keto pizza without cheese is tricky since the crust relies on it. You might be able to use a dairy-free cheese substitute, but the texture and taste will change.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Make the crust: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the mozzarella and cream cheese together for 40-50 seconds. Stir until smooth.
Add almond flour, egg, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Stir until a dough forms. Knead the dough gently with your hands until smooth.
Roll the dough between two sheets of parchment paper into a thin circle or rectangle. Transfer it to the baking sheet.
Pre-bake the crust for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown.
While the crust bakes, mix the shredded chicken with the Buffalo sauce until fully coated.
Assemble the pizza: Spread a thin layer of Buffalo sauce on the crust. Add the Buffalo chicken, then top with shredded mozzarella and blue cheese (if using).
Bake again for 8-10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and drizzle with ranch and extra Buffalo sauce. Garnish with chopped green onions.
Slice and serve hot!

Notes

For a milder flavor, reduce the Buffalo sauce or mix it with melted butter.
Rotisserie chicken works great for this recipe and saves time.
You can swap out blue cheese for extra mozzarella or cheddar if preferred.
