This Salami Pizza is a low carb, keto-friendly take on pizza that skips the dough and leans into big, savory flavor with just 3 net carbs per serving. An egg-based pizza crust holds layers of melty cheese, rich salami, and just enough sauce to make it feel like a real treat.
I've made versions of crustless pizza before, and this one stands out for how satisfying it is without feeling heavy. If you enjoy easy low carb meals that still feel fun, this one fits right in.

Key Ingredients for Low Carb Pizza
See the recipe card below for a full list of ingredients and instructions.

Mozzarella cheese: gives the crust structure and creates that familiar stretchy topping.
Hard salami: adds a savory, slightly spicy bite that carries the flavor.
Low carb pizza sauce: brings classic pizza taste without added sugars. Buy a low carb brand, or make your own homemade pizza sauce.
Italian seasoning: ties everything together with familiar herb notes.
Ingredient Substitutions
- Use pepperoni or soppressata in place of hard salami.
- Swap mozzarella with a mozzarella-provolone blend for sharper flavor.
- Replace red onion with shallots for a milder bite.
Variations on Salami Pizza
- Vegetarian Twist: Replace hard salami with roasted vegetables like bell pepper, onions, and mushrooms, sprinkled with fresh herbs to finish.
- Fathead dough: if preferred, make this almond flour pizza crust to replace the egg pizza crust.
- Make it meatier: add crumbled italian sausage (sweet or hot) to the pizza toppings.
- Mini pizzas: cook the egg and cheese pizza crust in the waffle iron, then top with your toppings and bake in the oven until cheese is melted.
Tips for Perfect Egg Pizza Crust
- Whisk the eggs until foamy to help the crust bake up evenly.
- Bake the crust until lightly browned so it stays firm under the toppings.
- Let the pizza rest a few minutes after baking to help it slice cleanly.
How to Store and Reheat.
Store leftover Salami Pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat slices in a 350°F or toaster oven until warmed through and the cheese softens again.
