Who says you can’t have pizza for breakfast? Ditch the delivery box and get ready for a morning treat that will delight everyone, from kids to keto-conscious adults! This isn’t your average pizza; we’re talking about a light, fluffy, cloud-like crust topped with a luscious cream cheese frosting and a sprinkle of vibrant, fresh berries. It’s the perfect way to turn any weekend morning into a special occasion.
Ingredients
• For the Cloud Crust
• 39 g / ~2 large egg whites, beaten to stiff peaks
• 18 g / ~1 large egg yolk
• 17 g / 1.5 tbsp walnut or canola oil
• 1.75 g / 0.5 tsp calorie-free sweetener (like Truvia)
• For the Creamy Topping
• 20 g / 1.5 tbsp heavy cream, whipped
• 10 g / 2 tsp European-style butter, softened
• 6 g / 1.5 tsp cream cheese, softened
• 7 g / ~1 medium strawberry, minced
• 5 g / ~1 large blackberry, minced
• 1.75 g / 0.5 tsp calorie-free sweetener (like Truvia)
• 3–5 drops / 1/8 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F / 175°C. Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
2. In a clean, dry bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. This is the key to a fluffy crust!
3. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, oil, and half of the sweetener (0.5 tsp).
4. Gently fold the yolk mixture into the stiff egg whites until just combined. Be careful not to overmix and deflate the whites.
5. Pour the batter onto your prepared baking sheet and gently spread it into a small, round pizza shape.
6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and cooked through. Allow it to cool completely on the baking sheet.
7. While the crust bakes, prepare the frosting. In a small bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter with the vanilla extract until completely smooth.
8. Gently fold in the remaining sweetener (0.5 tsp) and the whipped heavy cream until combined.
9. Once the crust is fully cooled, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top. Scrape the bowl well to get every last bit!
10. Sprinkle the minced strawberries and blackberries over the frosting. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious breakfast creation!

Pro Tips
• For an even lighter, airier crust, use only half the oil in the batter and drizzle the rest over the finished pizza just before serving.
• Ensure your bowl and beaters are completely clean and free of any fat or grease to get the stiffest, most stable peaks from your egg whites.
• Feel free to swap the berries for other low-carb fruits like raspberries, or add a sprinkle of unsweetened shredded coconut or sliced almonds for extra texture.
• This breakfast pizza is best enjoyed immediately after assembly, as the delicate crust can soften over time.
FAQ
Q: What makes this breakfast pizza keto-friendly
A: This breakfast pizza is keto-friendly because it uses a special ‘cloud crust’ made from eggs instead of high-carb flour. This keeps the net carbohydrates extremely low (only 3g per pizza), while the cream cheese and berry topping fits perfectly within a ketogenic diet.
Q: Can I use different toppings on this cloud bread pizza
A: Absolutely! Feel free to customize your low-carb breakfast pizza with other keto-approved toppings. Swap the berries for raspberries, or add extra texture with a sprinkle of sliced almonds, chia seeds, or unsweetened shredded coconut.
Q: Why did my cloud crust turn out flat instead of fluffy
A: A fluffy cloud crust depends on perfectly beaten egg whites. To ensure success, make sure your mixing bowl and beaters are completely clean and dry, as any trace of fat can prevent the whites from forming stiff peaks. Also, be very gentle when folding the yolk mixture into the whites to avoid deflating them.
Q: How do I store leftover breakfast pizza
A: This keto breakfast pizza is best enjoyed immediately after it’s made, as the delicate crust can soften over time. If you must store it, keep the cooled crust and the cream cheese topping in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Assemble just before serving for the best texture.
