Gluten Free Pizza

Serves: 6 large slices

Prep time: 45 minutes plus time for the dough to rise – at least 20 minutes or overnight in the refrigerator

Ingredients

  • 1 16-ounce gluten free pizza crust whole grain mix
  • (I used Bob’s Red Mill but there are many gluten-free mixes available now.)
  • 1 ½ cups warm water
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • yeast packet


Gluten Free Pizza Crust Mix

Directions

  1. I followed the directions on the bag: preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  2. Combine water and yeast and allow to stand for several minutes.
  3. Add eggs and oil and blend, before adding gluten-free pizza crust mix.
  4. When combined, cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise for 20 minutes, or wrap in plastic wrap and allow to rise overnight in the refrigerator.
  5. If you use the overnight method, let dough rest for 30 minutes before spreading on to pizza pan.
  6. When ready to use, spread pizza dough onto pan, building up the dough a bit along the edge of the pan, and prick the inside of the dough with a fork, to prevent bubbles from forming in the dough as it bakes.
  7. Bake without toppings for 9 minutes – crust will just be beginning to turn brown.
  8. Remove from oven and cover with your favorite toppings.
