The Best Gluten-Free Pizza Crust! Easy to make and works with basically any gluten-free flour blend. Bakes up chewy and crispy!
Friday night pizza might just be my favorite food ritual! It always means happy kids, a bubbly special drink from Trader Joe’s, perhaps a side of my favorite kale salad, and the best gluten-free pizza on this delicious crust.
I’ve tried a lot of gluten-free pizza crust recipes and this is my favorite. For awhile I was using the crust recipe from this book. It is a great crust, but takes so long to make!
One night when we all wanted homemade pizza, but I didn’t have time to make that crust, I tried this recipe and to my surprise it took half the time and was more delicious than any other crust I’ve made.
This pizza crust has the perfect amount of chew and bakes up crispy on the bottom.
One thing I’ve noticed at a lot of restaurants that serve gluten-free pizza is that the pizza never gets crispy on the bottom. Gluten-free things generally need to be baked longer than regular baked goods.
This is why you need to add a minute or so to gluten-free bread in the toaster. The same goes for pizza crust.
With this recipe I parbake the crust for 15-20 minute before adding the toppings. Then bake it for another 10-15 minute with the toppings on and you’ll have perfectly crispy, chewy pizza!
I bake the pizza on these pans, then transfer it to a wooden cutting board to slice up.
Another great thing about this crust recipe is that it works with basically any gluten-free flour blend. I like the texture and flavor best with my grain-free flour blend, but it also turns out wonderfully with King Arthur Flour and Bob’s Red Mill gluten-free flours. You can use what you have on hand.
Let me know in the comments if you make this crust and what flour you use!
I usually double this recipe for pizza night and make one classic pepperoni for my boys and my favorite dairy-free pizza (recipe coming soon!) with caramelized onions, bell peppers, and prosciutto. Enjoy!
FAQ
Can I freeze this dough?
You cannot freeze the dough, but the parbaked crusts freeze great! I love making an extra crust and freezing it for later when I make this recipe. Follow all the instructions up to where you bake the crust for the first 15-20 minutes. Bake the crust for the first 15-20 minutes then cool completely.
Once cooled wrap in a layer of plastic wrap followed by a layer of foil. Freeze for up to 1 month. To bake from the freezer, preheat the oven to 425F (I like to use a pizza stone.) Top the frozen crust with toppings of choice then slide directly onto the pizza stone to bake or bake on a pan. Bake the crust for 15-20 minutes until crispy and the toppings are bubbly.
Help! My dough is too runny!
Your dough might be more runny depending on what gluten-free flour blend you use. All gluten-free flour blends are slightly different and even how you measure the flour can cause differences. See the video above to get a visual on the texture you’re going for.
The dough should be more like cookie dough than runny batter. I would suggest mixing the dough for 3-4 minutes first, then adding more flour if needed (just a little at a time!) to thicken it up slightly.

The Best Gluten-Free Pizza Crust! Easy to make and works with basically any gluten-free flour blend. Bakes up chewy and crispy!
This recipe is really versatile and works with basically any gluten-free flour blend. I like adding a little almond flour when I use a store-bought blend because it gives the crust great flavor and color. If eat nut-free, you can substitute the almond flour with 1/4 GF Baking flour. I’ve had great results using gluten-free flour from both King Arthur Flour and Bob’s Red Mill!
Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water, about 110F
- 1 tablespoon sugar or honey
- 1 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast
- 1 1/4 cups (210 grams) Gluten-Free 1:1 Baking Flour + 1/4 cup almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon psyllium husk powder
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
+ 1/4 cup almond flour
Instructions
- Combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast in a glass measuring cup. Whisk to combine.
- While the yeast is proofing for 3-4 minutes, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and psyllium husk powder in the bowl of a stand mixer.
- With the mixer running on low, slowly add the yeast mixture and oil. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat for 3-4 minutes.
- Using an oiled spatula, press the dough off the sides into a ball. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 425F. Oil a 12-inch round pizza pan. Using oiled or wet hands, press the dough into the pan. The dough will shrink slightly as it bake, so press the dough as thin as you can to cover the pan. Let rise for another 10 minutes.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes. Remove from the oven and add your desired toppings. Bake for another 10-15 minutes depending on your toppings. Let cool for a few minutes before slicing. Enjoy!
Notes
MAKE IT NUT-FREE: Substitute 1/4 cup of gluten-free all-purpose flour for the almond flour.
MAKE IT VEGAN: Use sugar in place of the honey.
I have also like this crust made with 1 3/4 my grain-free flour blend. It will bake up with a darker color, but has a delicious flavor and texture. (Note: My blend already contains almond flour so you don’t need to add any.)

This pizza looks so good! Great idea with the parbaking. I never would have thought of it. Now I am craving a slice of pepperoni like crazy!
Thanks Karen!!
Dang this looks amazing! One question though, I see in step two you say to add the yeast along with the flour but in the step before it’s mixed with water and sugar. Just wondering, which is correct?
Thanks for catching that Anna! It is supposed to be mixed with the water. I’ll update the recipe. Let me know if you try it! 🙂
Ok so I want to make this tonight but I can’t seem to find where you add the olive oil. Do you just beat it in with the yeast mixture??
Yes exactly! I hope it turns out for you!
This crust looks good and I will have to try it – but I’ve gotta say, I’ve been using your Whole Grain Boule dough for pizza crust lately and it is GREAT. Sometimes when I’m making the bread I just make a double batch and then I get a loaf of bread and 3 large pizza crusts out of it. It makes a fantastic thin Naples style pizza crust! First let it rise until it’s about double or so, and the tear off a chunk, roll it out thin on a silicone baking mat with plastic wrap on top while rolling, then par bake it in a 450 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes and you’re in business! 🙂
Hi Erin! Gluten free whole grain boule sounds amazing, buy I didn’t see the recipe in the bread recipes list. Do you have a link? I love this crust recipe and use it to make French bread as well.

delicious.. i am gonna order pizza, right now. 😛
This pizza crust is delicious!! I’m about to make it for the second time!! By far the BEST gluten free pizza crust I’ve ever made! Thank you so much for sharing it!!
I’m so glad you like it!
I’ve made this pizza several times and we love it! I have had a few problems with getting the texture right though (I’m using Bob’s Red Mill 1:1 flour). The dough seems to rather thin, so sometimes i try and add a little more flour but then sometimes it will be too much. Would you consider making a video of this recipe so that we can see how the dough is supposed to look? Thank you very much! 🙂
Erin, this is my first time using this recipe. I used your GF flour mix and added the psyllium. It is very runny; have retread the recipe several times to ensure I didn’t omit anything. Should it be the consistency of thick pancake batter? I’ve used your GF flour mixture in many recipes, and they’ve all turned out great. Any input is appreciated. Thank you.
Hi Dar! I’m so sorry this recipe is giving you trouble. Sometimes the amount of moisture in the air, almond flour, etc. can vary. The dough should be like thick cookie dough rather than pancake batter. I would try adding 1/4 cup more flour and add more if needed to make it thick like cookie dough. I hope this helps!
I’m afraid I had the same problem with the “dough” being like batter. I ended up adding almost 1 cup more gluten free flour and another 1/4 cup almond flour before it was a sticky medium cookie dough. I oiled it and could form a ball and am waiting for it to rise. What is the weight of the flours when you make it? 1 used 140gm as a cup of the AP gluten free. I used Bob’s Red Mill AP not his 1:1 blend. I also scooped my Honeyville almond flour.
Hi Rochelle! If you weighed out the flour instead of measuring it by hand and used 140grams for 1 cup of Bob’s Red Mill 1:1 flour I can see why it would be too thin. Bob’s Red Mill 1:1 flour is a lot more dense than other gluten-free flours. I just checked and I use about 210 grams for this recipe total. 1 cup of Bob’s Red Mill 1:1 flour is closer to 170 grams. I added the grams to the recipe (I never know what is more helpful for people but should start including those!). Thanks for letting me know!
Initially it is like batter, don’t panick! Mix on medium as stated for a full. 3-4 minutes and it comes together beautifully! I also weigh my flours. I use America’s Test Kitchen flour for all of my baking. Love this recipe!
Hi wanting to make this just wondering if I could supplement the husk powder for xathum gum instead?
Yes! You can try using 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum instead.
Hi Erin! Super excited to try your recipe, it looks fantastic. One question though – do you know if the psyllium husk can be substituted by ground flax seeds or chia seeds? Sorry if that’s a stupid question, I’m new to gluten free baking! Thanks in advance 🙂 xxx
Hi! I want to try this recipe, but I was only able to find Active Dry Yeast, which comes in pre measured packets. The packet instructions says to use 1/4 cup of water. How should I compensate?
No worries! I usually use highly active or instant yeast (rather than just active yeast) but the kind you bought will still work – it will just take longer to rise. Just measure out the yeast to 1 1/2 teaspoons like the recipe says because a packet actually has 2 1/4 teaspoons usually. Then just increase the time the dough rises to 45 minutes – 1 hour. I hope it turns out for you!
This is the best gluten free pizza I’ve ever had!! The crust is also pretty easy to make. This will definitely be a favorite in our house!
Hooray! I’m so glad to hear you liked it!
I’m not sure if you maybe mentioned this anywhere and I missed it, but can you freeze this dough? I’m new to a GF lifestyle and I’d like to be able to have things prepared so it’s not such a hassle.
This is seriously one of the best crusts I’ve had-gluten free or otherwise. So light and crispy and delicious! Thanks so much for this recipe. It’s a keeper!
Great! I’m happy you like it! 🙂
I don’t have a standing mixer, do you think I could use a hand mixer?
Thank you.
I don’t have a stand mixer. Just used some extra elbow grease and literally a large wooden spoon that I sprayed with cooking spray. It worked just fine.
I have been getting a lot of requests from our customers to integrate Gluten Free crust into the pizzas that we make here at A1, and your recipe listed above helped me make that change for the customers sake.
This crust is also not as bland as what I thought it would have been. Also the reviews that we got from it where so awesome as well.
Thank you for taking the time to post great actionable content that even business owners can implement into their everyday lives.
Yours Truly,
-George
This is so wonderful to hear! So glad you and your customers like it! 🙂
Just made this tonight. The flavor was great. I did have to add almost 2 additional cups of the flour though! I made the flour blend you link to and it turned out very runny with this recipe. So I added 1/5 of a cup at a time until it was the right consistency. 8 scoops later it was finally more dough like. It ended up not being quite enough yeast to make it rise well but overall it was good! The flavor was seriously amazing. Next time, I’ll add the extra flour in the first place and add another teaspoon of yeast. Anxious to try again!! Thank you!!
Do you mean you used my grain-free flour blend? I’ll have to try this with my blend again to double check the recipe. I have made it with both Bob’s Red Mill 1:1 and my blend (the flavor with my blend is so good I agree!) and know it takes more flour with my blend – but it sounds like a lot more! Thanks for letting me know. I know the amount should be correct if using Bob’s Red Mill 1:1 but I will re-test with my blend!
I haven’t had luck with anything yeast ed since going gf years back. However, our family all thought thus was the best gf pizza crust we’ve had since going gf. I didn’t have psyllium husk, so I just added a bit more flour. I, too, had thick pancake batter, but went with it. Just spread it out. It came out perfect. I added extra flour to another batch, and it came out thick, chewy, and doughy.
Do you know if this can be made ahead of time and stored (fridge, or freezer)? And has anyone tried cooking it on the stove (I saw elsewhere that someone took dough camping and it turned out great, but they didn’t elaborate on the prep, or cooking).
Thanks!
I’m dying for your “favorite dairy-free pizza (recipe coming soon!) with caramelized onions, bell peppers, and prosciutto.” Any chance this will be posted soon? Pizza has been what I miss the most since cutting gluten, dairy, and eggs out of my diet.
Thanks!
Steph
Hi Stephanie! Ok here is what I do for that topping combination – I use Trader Joe’s (or any kind you like) pizza sauce. I saute 1/2 a red onion, 1 red bell pepper, 1 yellow bell pepper (all 3 of those thinly sliced) in some olive oil (about 2 tablespoons) over medium /medium-low heat until they are very soft and almost caramelized. Add a few sliced of chopped prosciutto and cook until warmed through. Then I top the precooked pizza crust with the sauce, some red pepper flakes, the caramelized pepper mixture and some of the dairy-free parmesan on my site. I usually bake it for another 10-15 minutes with the toppings. So good! I hope you like it!
I just made the pizza for lunch and my husband loved it. I did not use more flour eventhough the mixture was soft and I made the dough and left it to rest overnight. I sprinkled maize flour on the grease proof paper and rolled it out. Perfect best dough ever. Thanks.
Great! Yes it’s tempting to add more flour because the dough isn’t like regular pizza dough – but better not to add more flour for sure. Glad you liked it!
I just tried this too and found the consistency like pancake batter. I did not measure flour by weight, and did use Bob’s Red Mill 1:1 flour. I think the 1C water to 1 1/2 C flour ratio is pretty high and am surprised it has turned out for other people! Or maybe our water in the north is wetter? 😉
Or maybe I’m expecting it to be like a regular flour dough and it is supposed to have a different consistency?
Yes this definitely doesn’t have the consistency of regular dough. It won’t turn out if you add flour to make it like that. It should be the consistency of cookie dough but not as thin as pancake batter.
Can I make the dough and freeze it? Will it still come out okay when I finally bake it?
I would recommend par-baking the crust and then freezing it (so bake just 15-20 minutes). Then let the crusts cool and wrap them in a layer of plastic wrap and tin foil. You can then place toppings on the pizza straight from the freezer and then bake for 20 minutes at 425F. I hope this helps!
If you boil 3/4 cup water with 2 tbsp olive oil and add that to the flour mix first, let it cool for 20 minutes and then prepare 1/4 cup water sugar and yeast, let that cure for 15 minutes then add yeast mixture to the cooled flour mixture it will gelatinous and make the dough more like wheat dough and you won’t need the husk.
Erin, this is heaven on a plate!
Can this be made without a mixer?
Help, I made your flour blend and weighed the ingredients to do it. But, when I made the pizza dough it was super runny. I didn’t have psyllium so I used gelatin as that is supposed to be a gum substitute. I continued to add another cup of flour mix to thicken it but it was still pourable though. I then poured it into a pan and prebaked it. In the end, it seemed ok, rather heavy, but eatable and good flavour.
Can you please tell me if it was the gelatin that did it, or was there a misprint tin the cups of flour?
I just made this last night. I read the reviews like I often do and had so much hope and fortunately this recipe does not disappoint!! It is everything that is says it is, crunchy, chewy and crusty like a real pizza crust should be! I “almost” can’t tell the difference. I used King Arthur Gluten Free Flour 24oz (NOT the “measure for measure” type which isn’t as good for yeasted bakes). I added Trader Joe’s Almond flour and instead of Psyllium Husk I used ground flax seed because that’s what I had on hand. It seemed to work fine. The mixture was never like a cookie dough for me, much more like a cake batter. I second guessed whether I had put the correct amount of flours in as I was using a 1/4 cup measure because it fits easier into the bag of flour. I therefore added about an 1/8 of a cup of coconut flour which is very absorbent. It never looked like a proper ball because it was too loose to have a real shape or form. Don’t worry, it’s o.k. if it is, it will still turn out just fine! We went on a walk and let it proof for more like an hour and it was huge and puffy almost like a real pizza dough would rise. I poured oil olive drizzle into the pan, swirled it around with my fingers and make sure both hands were oiled and plopped it out in the center of the pan. It was easy to work and not sticky at all because of the oil. My pan was a bit small for this recipe as I like a thiner crust. Maybe next time I’ll use a bigger pan or take out part of the dough. I really enjoyed the taste and texture of this crust. It was better than any product I’ve had that I’ve bought off the shelf and this recipe is spot on and better than most GF recipes I’ve tried!
The only question I have is, how can I mix the dough without a standing mixer? I have a hand mixer and that’s it but I’m done shying away from recipes because of the standing mixer. Although the one time I made something without it, all I could taste was the flour. Help please! 🙂
The stand mixer just makes it easier to mix but isn’t necessary at all! A hand mixer should work great. I hope you like it!
I would like to know can I make the dough and freeze it into balls { making personal size pizza for one } I would vacuum pack them individual. Thanks Francine
It doesn’t work to freeze the dough unfortunately! However, it works great to freeze the par-baked crusts. Just stop at the step before you would put the toppings on. Let the crusts cool and then wrap in a layer of plastic wrap followed by tin foil. They will keep in the freezer for up to a month. You can bake them directly from frozen on a hot pizza stone or baking sheet. You can definitely make them individual-sized! Let me know if you have any other questions!
Thanks for sharing , yes I made this crust
using a flour blend I get at a bulk food place . I skipped the psyllium (allergy) and I added a small egg .. Worked out very well . So far one of the best crusts for gluten free . thanks .
I made this for dinner tonight and it was easy and soooooo good!! It will be perfect for the whole family even those that don’t eat gf.
So happy to hear you liked it! 🙂
So a few things: for the people who are finding it runny – it still works! Just use a spatula or wet hands to shape it and you’re ready to rock (or at least I was, using cup 4 cup).
Also, I used chia seeds instead of psyllium husk (half the amount, though) since I never have psyllium on hand.
Finally, I used this tonight to make hamburger buns and yum!!! I have runny batter with this, so I just globbed 4 rough buns out of the dough onto a baking sheet, and then used wet hands to shape. Turned the heat down to 350 after 10 minutes and they were perfect after 30 (total). Best hamburger buns I’ve had since going GF!!!
Finally…a GF pizza dough recipe that works! We typically have homemade pizza and watch a movie on Sunday nights. Once my daughter was diagnosed with celiac, this went by the wayside as I couldn’t find a recipe that actually tasted like pizza dough. Seriously, they were all worse than terrible. Tried this one ne last night and everyone loved it. Looked like pizza, tasted like pizza. This will definitely be my Sunday night go-to recipe!
I’m so happy to hear this recipe will help carry on your tradition! Thanks for the comment!
Very runny dough and very frustrated!
Can the dough be stored in the fridge – and if so, how long? Can it be frozen? If so, how do you thaw out and use it? Thank you!
I would recommend par-baking the crusts then cooling them before freezing. The dough unbaked cannot be frozen. I haven’t tried refrigerating it!
This was a tasty gf crust. I will prebake for 20 minutes or until golden brown next time I make it. Thanks for a great recipe.
Wow we just made this pizza dough and it was easy and delicious. I have missed eating pizza so thank you so much
Can you refrigerate the dough?
Okay, reading the comments, I really wish I had read them before. I’m sure I added at least 1/4 more flour and my dough looked nice, but when I took it out of the bowl it was not a ball of dough :-(. My heart was fairly broken, but I have added more flour and will give it a try. Next time will definitely add at least 1/2 cup or more as commented by several folks below. We are at a high altitude so who knows if that has anything to do with it.
Fingers crossed, hope it turns out this time!
Hey I’m planning out a gluten free pizza dough and I’ll be using the ingredients suggested but I’m thinking of adding instant mashed potatoes, cheese, 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar, sauteeing garlic and onion powder in oil (letting it cool) I just want to check if anyone has added this and if it will retard the dough. Thanks for any tips
Thank you so much for this recipe! I was just diagnosed and have been missing pizza, nothing tasted right, even deliver was off. Well this is perfect! Even my kids prefer it over my regular pizza dough. Thank you again.
Changes I did was I used my own flour blend, and used 1tsp xanthum gum instead of husks since I did not have any. I also double the recipe and it worked great.
Thanks Rachelle! So glad your kids liked it! 🙂
The dough was a sticky mess. Never looked like cookie dough, even after adding more flour. I didn’t think there would be any way that this would be edible, but I decided to try it anyway. I had to use a greased spatula to spread the dough onto a cookie sheet. After parbaking I thought it might just work, so I added all my toppings and Baked it for 12 mins. longer. It was delicious, and so crunchy like I like it! Thank you so much for this recipe. This will be my go to crust from now on, and I found it at just the right time. I had been buying Trader Joe’s gf pizza crust, but they have not had it in the stores for about 2 months. Now I don’t care. This one is so much better, and probably a lot cheaper. Thanks you again.
I’m glad it worked out for you!
I just made this and followed the baking instructions. My Pizza was over baked. The flavor is great, I will just bake it less next time. Thanks for the recipe!
Thank you Erin for this great Recipe! I made it today for lunch, and my kids and thier friends were fighting over every slice of it! Thank you again:)
I’m having a hard time finding psyllium husk powder will put psyllium husk seed work as well?
This crust is excellent! I ended up gradually adding more flour to get the right consistency because I measured rather than weighed my flour. For extra flavor I added a little dried oregano, basil and garlic powder to the crust mixture. My husband, who is not GF, ate 4 slices!
Erin,
The crust turns out beautifully as written and makes a great pizza. Thanks for posting! I look forward to trying your bread recipe soon.
This crust was delicious! I was especially excited to find a recipe that does not contain xanthan gum. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe and allowing me to eat pizza again!
Absolutely the best pizza crust I’ve ever made, gluten-free or otherwise! The search for the perfect pizza crust has ended. Thank you!
Hooray! Glad you love it! 🙂
I made this tonight and I am honest to goodness blown away. I halved the recipe (becaus I would have eaten the whole thing if I made it all) and shared two small pieces with my kids. I subbed xanthym gum for the psyllium. Frozen/shelf gluten free dough is great in a pinch but I will naber make another pizza crust again. Thank you!
This looks soooo good! Question: Do you add the psyllium husk powder – regardless of whether the GF flour blend has xantham or such added??
Hello, is it necessary to add the psyllium husk? What is that for? I have everything except that, I’ve never used that! Is there a replacement for it?
The psyllium adds elasticity to the dough. You do need it for the recipe!
My son couldn’t even tell the difference between the gf and regular pizza. This was excellent. I was skeptical when I saw how sticky it was, but it turned out fluffy, light yet with some bite & firmness. It didn’t just disappear in my mouth like alot of gf doughs. Way to go. I’m keeping this one!
Thanks for the great recipie , I tried it and the crust turned out great , it’s for my 5 year old who has been on gluten free diet and had been mssing on pizza for last few months , it brought smile to her face
Only a little after taste in the crust any suggestions ??
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe Erin, I made it for my dinner last night and loved it, the texture is perfect and it tastes wonderful. No more store bought pizza bases for me, this recipe is a keeper.
I’m so glad you loved it! It’s our favorite too!
Hi Erin,
Does the dough need to be in a warm spot for the rising part? I don’t see that in the instructions…
Thanks 🙂
This recipe calls for instant yeast so it should rise fairly quickly either way. A warm spot always helps speed the process though! 🙂
any substitute for the psyllium? (allergy)
My 11 year old son loves his pizza and is still mourning the fact that he can no longer have a regular wheat pizza. He rates each gluten free recipe I’ve tried and always compares my pizzas with his favorite restaurant pizza. THIS recipe is his all time favorite!! This seriously is the best gluten free recipe(including all gluten free restaurant pizza we’ve tried). We use Bob’s Red Mill 1:1 and I use 1 tsp of xanthum gum in place of the psyllium husk. Turns out amazing every time.
This makes me so happy to hear! I’m glad that he loves it!
Can you use a parchment paper and/OR a pizza stone?
Hi Erin! This IS delicious pizza crust (I have made it in the past); however, ours stuck terribly to the pan.
Do you know of anyone who has tried this crust on parchment paper? Or on a plain pizza stone? Any suggestions for what kind of pan to use will be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks, again!
I bake this on parchment paper with excellent results 🙂
I’ve made this pizza a few times now, and we love it! I don’t have bob’s here in France, so I use my own all purpose mix (40% starch, 60% whole grain) plus the almond flour, and it turns out perfectly. I can’t wait to try your other recipes! Thank you very much!
I’m so glad it worked out for you! 🙂
Was wondering what your blend is for gluten free? And have you ever use sorghum flour?
Loved the crust. Made it for friends and it was very well received! Thanks
★★★★★
You’re right, this is the best GF pizza base I’ve made. Absolutely delicious. Thanks for a great recipe!
★★★★★
Finally a good pizza crust! Hallelujah
My fiancé likes it just as much as a regular crust! Bravo!!! I have tried at least 10 other gluten free recipes. This is the one that ended my search.
We just got your book for our wedding. Can’t wait to cook 🙂
Is there anything better than a pizza recipe that is basically no-fail? Seriously, everytime I follow this recipe, we have a delicious pizza night.
★★★★★
Hi!
Thank you for inspiring me to bake again!
Great therapy for when the gloom and doom of today’s politics seems overwhelming.
I used oat flour since I did not have any of the white rice flour called for America’s Test Kitchen gluten flour blend.
I did have to add an extra cup of the blend to make the batter a bit firmer.
My Vegetarian Pizza with home grown Tomatoes, Jalapenos, raw Mozzarella on homemade Marinara turned out great.
The crust was chewy, crunchy and had great flavor.
★★★★★
Yum – that sounds delicious! So glad it turned out for you!
I made this last night. It’s a long time the two of us ate a pizza for 4 in one sitting but we did last night. Tip: if there’s no warm spot in your house, put your oven on it’s lowest setting and put the dough in there to rise.
★★★★★
Wow.
My wife is gluten sensitive and i did not believe in gluten free crusts. They are typically too hard.
But this one…made our evening meal (with me as the hero) and is an instant hall of famer in the family.
Had to add some flower to make the dough more consistent otherwise it was so soft!
Thanks!
★★★★★
Great! Glad it’s going in your recipe hall of fame 🙂
My grand daughter is gluten intolerant and I have tried many pizza crust recipes without success until now. We all loved this crust including my daughter who voted it better than most of the regular pizzas she has tried.
Some of the flours you recommend are not readily accessible in England so I used Bread Flour and the results were fantastic.
I am certainly going to make other recipes from this website.
★★★★★
I’m so glad your daughter liked it! Glad you found ingredients that worked for you!
I spent the weekend making different gluten free pizza crust. This one is the winner!
★★★★★
Hooray! Glad it turned out for you 🙂
Hello,
I am writing down this recipe and excited to buy the ingredients. I plan to make it using your grain free flour blend.Just wanting to double check. Do you use 1 3/4 CUP of this blend instead of the 1 1/2 total with the almond flour? It seems there is a typo where you mention that your grain free flour blend can be used. Also, I’m assuming this is the 30% Buckwheat, Potato and Almond and 10% Arrowroot.
Thank you!
★★★★★
Works much better with 2hr proofing as ball, followed by 1hr proofing as flat. Cook crust at 350F for 15 minutes, cool, add toppings, cook pizza at 375F for 15 minutes.
★★★
Erin I tried your pizza dough using 1 3/4 C of your grain free flour blend and 1 C water was way too much. It was pourable! I ended up adding another C of the flour blend and it was still wet and sticky. In order to pat it out into a rectangle I added another 1/2 C more of buckwheat flour on the silicone pan liner and on top to keep it dry enough to pat it out.
I am a retired Home Ec teacher with a degree in food science so I am very familiar with yeast dough. I’ve been gluten free for 3 years and have been making GF bread for most of that time.
The bread sticks turned out tender with great flavour but it was an excruciatingly painful experience. LOL
Any suggestions?
Since I made your grain free flour mix by weight and used 1 3/4 C in the pizza crust recipe and it was too runny, I would like to weigh your grain free flour mix next time.
How much should 1 3/4 C weigh?
I made a half recipe totalling 500 grams and used slightly less than half of it the first time including the extra I added.
I weighed 1 3/4 C of your flour mix to be 195g. Spooned in gently and leveled with the back of a knife.
Could you please verify or correct this weight?
Thanks
I tried this with Bobs Red Mill flour but I think you need to be very specific when you write this- is it the 1:1 flour or the regular gluten free flour? When I click on the link for the flour the picture on Amazon shows the 1:1 flour, yet you don’t write this in your recipe. I’m sure it’s just an oversight but I just wasted a bunch of time trying to get this right and sadly, no pizza tonight. And I’m not an inexperienced cook by any means. I’ll try your grain free blend, maybe it’ll work better.
I made this pizza crust tonight, amazing! I used Pamels’s GF and Dairy Free Artisan Flour Blend. I substituted Chia Seeds for the Physilium. I weighed the flour out instead of using measuring cups. The pizza dough blended up just as the video said, it was the consistency of cookie dough. I baked the pizza crust on a pizza stone. The crust baked up chewy and the edges were crispy, the bottom browned up nicely. My husband loved the crust too. I’ll definitely use this recipe again and again. Thx!

Thank you so much, I recently had to go gluten-free and really miss eating my favorite foods with my family, today we had our 4 grandchildren over so I doubled over your recipe and made a deep dish version of your pizza and it went over huge! Everyone loved it! I will definitely be trying different spin-offs from this. Thanks again from Wisconsin.

This pizza crust is the best! It’s texture and taste are great, makes a good sized pizza to feed 5, and it’s not like eating cardboard. Out of all the pizzas in the frozen aisle or delivery, this takes the cake. I doubled it tonight to freeze one for a quick weeknight dinner. My kids prefer this crust and even their non GF friend loved it. Used an all purpose GF flour and millet.

So great! I’m glad you and your kids like it. It’s our favorite too 🙂
I’m excited to try this crust! Friday night pizza nights are big at our house, too.
Question: Can I omit the psyllium husk powder? Or is there an easy substitution?
I added flaxseed meal and garlic salt to the crust and two tspn xanthum gum..really took it up a notch and crust is deliciously chewy!
This gluten-free pizza was delicious! Thanks for creating 🙂
