Try These Simple and Delicious Pull-Apart Keto Pizza Rolls
Love gooey appetizers? Like pizza?
What if I said you can make a delicious keto pull-apart pizza easily at home?! YEP. It’s true!
This keto pull-apart pizza recipe is extremely versatile!
I used cheddar cheese and pepperoni slices in this batch, but you can customize your pull-apart pizza for your taste by picking any toppings of your choice! Serve with a low-sugar marinara sauce if desired for a yummy appetizer or meal idea. I think a pesto and chicken version of this pull-apart bread would be yummy as well, or even a bacon and cheeseburger variation!
The process is pretty easy and consists of making a quick dough, rolling it into small balls, and placing in a bundt pan with cheese and pepperoni. When it cooks, you’ll get small, bite-sized pillows of pizza! The secret to maintaining individual bites is to roll dough balls into Parmesan cheese, so they won’t stick together so much after baking.
Hip Tip: Make sure to grease your bundt pan well or use a silicone one like mine! I love it.

This mouth-watering pull-apart pizza will become your new family favorite recipe!
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 oz. cream cheese
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 oz. pepperoni slices
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
Directions
1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
2
Combine almond flour with baking powder. Set aside.
3
In a microwave safe dish, melt the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese together in the microwave for about 30 seconds. Stir and add another 30 seconds.
4
Once the cheese has melted, add the flour mixture, eggs, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Knead the dough until it forms into a sticky ball. You can use a stand mixer to mix dough, or by hand is fine. If your dough is too sticky, keep mixing! Also covering it and leaving in the fridge for a few minutes helps sometimes, too.
5
Separate the dough in half and then keep dividing in half until you have about 30 evenly-sized balls.
6
Spray a bundt pan with non-stick cooking spray.
7
Roll each ball in Parmesan cheese and build a layer of half the dough balls on the bottom of pan.
8
Top first layer with half of the shredded cheddar cheese and pepperoni.
9
Add another layer of dough balls, and top with remaining cheese and pepperoni.
10
Bake at 350 degrees for about 25-30 minutes until cooked through and browned.
11
Let cool. Place on a plate to serve with marinara sauce if desired.

What a great tasting pull-apart pizza!
This was devoured in no time. I love that it was simple to make and delicious, too! I mean who doesn’t want cheesy pepperoni bread?! YUM.
My dough always turns out too “wet” and sticky to form it in any way. Any thoughts on what to change or what I could be doing wrong?
I do have some tips. I find to just keep mixing for a bit helps sometimes. Also you can place in the fridge for a few minutes. You can also put a little oil on your hands if it’s sticking. Hope that helps!
Thanks Lina I will try those out.
In the list of ingredients, it says baking powder, but in the instructions, it says baking soda.
It’s baking powder – so sorry for the confusion – will fix!
You didn’t fix it yet! Ingredient list still says baking powder. Directions says baking soda.
Thanks, Merry! That has been updated!
Yes, but in Lina’s comments she said it’s supposed to be baking POWDER. You updated it to say baking soda. I made it yesterday with baking powder, and it was amazing!! I was going to share the recipe but will wait till it’s fixed again 🙂
Super sorry for the confusion! I updated directions and ingredients for baking powder. Thanks so much, and I am soooo happy you loved it!! Yay!
As the boy on the trike in The Incredibles…..that was awesome !
Can this be made ahead of time and then popped in the oven at the last minute?
Yes! You can do that! Great idea, Jan!
Could I make this in a regular round cake pan if I dont have a bundt pan?
Yep or even a loaf pan instead if it fits.
Can i add other pizza toppings
Yes! You could try peppers, onions, jalapenos, olives, sausage, bacon, etc. We recommend sauteing the veggies first to avoid adding unwanted moisture to the pizza. Hope that helps!
Can u use coconut flour instead and how much
We haven’t done it ourselves, but it would be great to try. You won’t use the same amount so be sure to follow our tips here.
Can you use King Arthurs GF Flour in place of the Almond Flour?
