Tips
- If you want to use ground beef, shredded chicken, and other toppings on this Carnivore pizza crust, let the flatbread cool before adding toppings to prevent the cheese and cream mixture from making it soggy.
- If you like a firmer crust, bake the flatbread for a few extra minutes before adding toppings.
- Use aged cheddar or gouda cheese to have a stronger taste.
- Pre-cook bacon before adding it so it stays crispy.
- Use thick-cut bacon as it is juicier and adds more chew to your pizza.
- If you want extra crispy cheese and bacon, switch to broil at the end.
- Let the pizza rest for 2-3 minutes before slicing so the cheese sets and makes slicing easier.
