What do you need to make your own keto pizza stuffed mushrooms at home? Use any of your personal favorite low carb pizza toppings, but this combination is pretty tasty in my books!
How to Make the Best Pizza Stuffed Mushrooms
To prepare the mushroom pizza is a bit of a breeze. I like to start by peeling the mushrooms. Something I do to cook them any other way but as a hot tip peeling them allow the flavor penetrate and the excess water from the mushrooms to escape.
In a small bowl add the avocado oil, minced garlic, and salt and pepper. Baste the mushrooms inside and out and place onto a lined baking tray cap side down.
Place the softened cream cheese into the same bowl you used for the oil and mix to incorporate any leftover oil and garlic. Spread a tablespoon onto the centre of each mushroom.
In a small bowl combine passata with 2 teaspoons of Italian Herbs and spread on top of the cream cheese.
Divide the mozzarella between the mushrooms and place on top. Add pepperoni, bacon and sausage. Sprinkle with remaining Italian Herbs and bake at 180°C / 370°F for 20-25 minutes or until cheese is lightly browned and mushrooms are cooked through.
Season with fresh parsley and serve with lemon zest, lemon juice and a sprinkle of sumac.

Notes
- Any large mushroom can be used. If do not wish to peel the mushrooms simple poke the skin with a sharp knife or fork to allow water to evaporate and the flavours to seep through.
- Avocado oil is very delicious but can be replaced with oil or fat of choice.
- I use Gourmet Garden garlic paste in most of my cooking.
- Cream cheese is optional and can be omitted.
- Any passata or pizza sauce can be used.
- Use any of your favourite pizza toppings on the mushrooms. If you would prefer a keto vegetarian version top with roasted capsicum, olives, onion and artichoke.
- Sumac is a middle eastern spice. It is readily available in most supermarkets however you can use any spice or seasoning of choice.
- These can be made ahead of time and baked when ready to serve.
- Store any leftover cooked mushrooms in an airtight container in the fridge. Consume withing 3 days.
- The nutrition is calculated using the ingredients listed. The net carbs for each 1 mushroom pizza is 4g net carbs. This mostly comes from the mushroom itself.
