Instructions

  • Prepare all of your ingredients for making the perfect fathead dough. Almond flour is best blanched as it will resemble most of the color of a standard dough. Mozzarella, please shred it at home as pre-shredded from the shop contain most of the time starches. An egg is best if room temperature. 
  • Start with heating your non-stick pot on a medium-high. Place your shredded mozzarella and start melting it until you get the consistency on the image. 
  • Once the cheese melts, turn the heat off and add the almond flour. Using a wooden spoon bled it all together halfway. Add one egg and work the dough. Using a spatula, start mixing dough together thoroughly until all blended.
  • Place the dough on a parchment paper or silicone sheet, and using your hands as you see in the video, start working your dough. This process might take 5 to 10 minutes until all is combined into one smooth consistency dough.

Notes

  • Reheat - if your dough is becoming too hard to work with, reheat it a bit for the mozzarella to melt again and continue
  • Oil - use oil on your hand to avoid stickiness if needed
  • Storage - wrap the dough in a plastic wrap and store in the fridge for up to a week
  • Silicone roller - used to roll out the dough without sticking
  • Parchment paper - placing parchment paper in between the dough will help prevent the stickiness while rolling
  • Baking powder - can be used for some recipes you need a bit of puffiness and lift up 
  • Cream Cheese - add cream cheese for extra creaminess
