No Gluten Pizza Crust

Just because your diet needs to be gluten free, it doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy great tasting foods like pizza.  Pizza crust can be made gluten free just as easily as regular pizza crust.  Below is a great recipe for Gluten Free Pizza Crust.  

Is Chicago style thick crust pizza your favorite?  Or possibly you favor the New York thin crusted style.   Either way, you can have your favorite gluten free pizza crust.   Do it at home & don the chef cap.  

You’ll only need 20 or so minutes of prep time and then 7 to 10 minutes of cooking time. 

Ingredients

1.)   You can use a pizza stone or baking sheet.

2.)  3/4 cup Gluten Free Flour

3.)  3/4 cup tapioca flour

4.)  Extra tapioca flour for rolling the pizza dough

5.)  1 teaspoon Agar-Agar powder

6.)  2 tablespoons dry buttermilk powder

7.)  1 teaspoon salt

8.)  2 teaspoons xantahan gum

9.)  1 package active dry yeast granules

10.) 1 teaspoon sugar

11.)  2 teaspoons olive oil

12.)  1 1/2 teaspoon cider vinegar

13.)  1/2 cup lukewarm water

Preparation

Pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly sprinkle the cornmeal.

1.)   Place all dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl and whisk until mixed together. 

2.)   Add olive oil, water, sugar, & vinegar. 

3.)   Mix for 3-4 minutes.

4.)  Scrape the dough on to a clean surface and sprinkle with tapioca flour.

5.)  Work the tapioca flour into the dough so it can be shaped into a large ball.  Cut the dough in half to make two medium sized pizzas

6.)   Shape each dough piece into a circle.

7.)  Shape the dough with a rolling pin into the circles.   For New York style crust, roll it thin.  For Chicago style crust, keep it thick. 

8.)  Place one pizza crust on a pizza stone or baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes or until the dough is firm.  Repeat with 2nd pizza. 

9.)  Top the pizzas with your favorite gluten free toppings and bake an additional 7-10 minutes or until done.  

Enjoy your gluten free pizza
