FAQ About Pizza

To make a gluten-free pizza crust, you can try the following recipe:

Ingredients:

• 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
• 1 teaspoon xanthan gum (if not included in the flour blend)
• 1 teaspoon instant yeast
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup warm water
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Instructions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, xanthan gum (if needed), instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Whisk together to blend the dry ingredients.
2. In a separate bowl, mix the warm water, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar.
3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Mix well until a dough forms. The dough may be sticky, but it should hold together.
4. Lightly oil a separate bowl and transfer the dough into it. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
5. Preheat your oven to the desired temperature for baking the pizza.
6. Once the dough has risen, place it on a sheet of parchment paper or a greased pizza stone.
7. Use wet hands or a lightly oiled rolling pin to press and shape the dough into your desired pizza shape. Add more gluten-free flour if needed to prevent sticking.
8. Par-bake the crust for about 8-10 minutes in the preheated oven. This step helps the crust become firmer and hold its shape.
9. Remove the partially baked crust from the oven and add your desired pizza sauce, cheese, and toppings.
10. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown.
11. Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, slice, and serve.
