Gluten Free Pizza Crust

It seems like I went years without eating pizza. Can you even imagine?... Luckily many restaurants have gluten free pizza now, Romio's, Boston's, and Garlic Jim's. Recently, I've learned how to make gluten free pizza at home. Let me tell you, it is a WHOLE lot cheaper, and tastes just as good!

Dry Ingredients:
1/2 cup corn starch
1 3/4 cup gluten free flour*
2 tsp xanthum gum
3/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 tbs sugar
2 1/2 tsp yeast
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp oregano

Wet Ingredients:
3/4 cup water (more if needed)
2 tbs cottage cheese*
2 eggs
2 1/2 tbs olive oil
1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
1 tbs honey

Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 175
2.Combine the dry ingredients, except for the yeast, in a bowl.
3. Combine the wet ingredients.
4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet
5. Add the yeast on the top of the dry ingredients.
6. Beat on low with a mixer until well blended, add water if needed to get the right consistency. It should look like wet cookie dough.
7. Place on a pizza pan or stone. Oil a spatula or oil hands and spread the dough on the pizza pan until it forms a crust shape. It will be sticky, so it may be hard for it to get a good pizza shape. It should cover a large pizza pan.
8. Place in the preheated oven, and turn off the oven. Let the dough rise for 45 minutes
9. Reshape the dough if needed after it has risen.
10. Pre-bake the dough at 350 for 10 minutes.
11. Add your favorite toppings/ sauce etc.
12. Bake another 10-15 minutes, broil the top if desired.

*1 3/4 brown rice flour or 1 1/2 cup brown rice flour and 1/4 cup sorghum flour
*2 tbs sour cream will work as well if you don't have cottage cheese.



It is alot easier to make than it looks! Good luck!
