These easy pizza zucchini tots low carb are gluten-free, grain-free, and make for a tasty snack with pepperoni pizza taste.
A low-carb snack with a big pizza taste! Easy to make, bake, and serve with a dip. I like to dip them in a warmed low-carb marinara sauce, pizza sauce (watch for added sugars), or ranch dressing.
I included a homemade pizza sauce recipe below as well.
My family went a little nuts for these, especially my teenage boy. That boy loves pizza so much, and I don't think he ever tires of it.

Thank you, Steph for sharing your results 🙂
Bev says
What could I sub for the flax meal? Can these be frozen?
Stacey says
Bev, you could just use a little more coconut flour instead of flax. I have not tried freezing them yet.
Kelly @ A Girl Worth Saving says
Girl I love pizza tots and I love how you made them low cab by using zucchini
Stacey says
Awe, thank you girly 🙂
Jill says
Can I use almond flour instead of the coconut flour and can I use mushrooms instead of the pepperoni?
Thanks
Stacey says
Jill, you can use 4 times the amount of almond flour as coconut flour but you will need to wrap the grated zucchini in paper towels or cheesecloth and squeeze out the water from it, as coconut flour would absorb that moisture but almond flour will not. Not sure about mushrooms as they can get watery too.
