What better way to kick-off going gluten-free than to make some comfort food! Here’s my first ever gluten-free pizza recipe. Enjoy!
Gluten Free Pepperoni Pizza
Ingredients:
- Gluten Free Pizza Crust (I used 1 package of Bob’s Red Mill). Follow package directions if using another brand.
- 1.5 cups warm water
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Yeast Packet (Bob’s Red Mill includes this)
- 10-12 oz of your favorite pizza sauce (I used DelGrosso All Natural Old Style Pizza Sauce because it was low in sugar)
- Buffalo mozzarella cheese
- All natural, nitrate/nitrite free uncured pepperoni
Directions:
In a mixing bowl, combine warm water and yeast and let it stand for 2-3 minutes. Add eggs and oil to yeast mixture and blend on low. Add pizza crust mix and blend on medium for 1-2 minutes. Cover dough in bowl with plastic wrap and let it rise for 20 minutes. While dough is rising, preheat oven to 425° F.
Grease large cookie sheet with gluten-free non-stick cooking spray. Wet hands and spread dough out across entire cookie sheet. Bake without toppings for 8 minutes.
Remove pizza crust from oven and top with sauce, cheese, and pepperoni. (For a healthier version - try spinach & goat cheese or broccoli, mushrooms, & diced chicken).
Bake for 16 minutes or until cheese is browned.
Enjoy!
*For a garlic crust - once crust has baked naked for 8 minutes, remove from oven. Brush a light coat of olive oil on crust edges and sprinkle garlic powder on top. Continue with additional toppings and return to oven for 16 minutes.
This sounds delicious! I’m going to try this soon!
It was actually really really good! Definitely a fun Friday night dinner for the family
