It’s Friday! Which in our house means pizza / family movie night. I had a recipe for my favourite gluten free, vegan pizza crust that was метро СПб lost when I updated my site so … for those that are interested, here it is again! Enjoy!
Gluten Free Pizza (recipe courtesy of Cooking Light Gluten Free Cookbook)
1 package active dry yeast (approx 2 1/4 tsp)
2 1/2 tsp sugar, divided (I like to use coconut sugar)
1 cup warm milk (I use unsweetened almond milk)
1 cup (approx) Brown rice flour
1/2 cup cornstarch (or if allergic to corn, arrowroot or tapioca starch)
2 tsp xanthan gum (or guar gum is allergic to corn)
1 tsp italian seasoning
1/2 tsp sea salt
4 tsp olive oil, divided
2 tsp apple cider vinegar
Directions:
1. preheat oven to 450 degrees
2. dissolve 1/2 tsp sugar in warm milk. Add yeast, mix slightly and let stand for approx 5 min
3. combine 3/4 cup brown rice flour, and remaining dry ingredients in a bowl / stand mixer.
4. add yeast mixture, and remaining wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix. Add two tbsp brown rice flour and mix again. Mixture will be wet … I use a spatula to spoon mixture onto parchment lined pizza pans (I get two small pizzas from this or one large. I often will double the recipe to get two large pizzas depending on my kids appetites that night!)
5. I use approximately 2 tbsp brown rice flour to sprinkle over dough so that I can form it into a pizza shape.
6. place in your preheated oven and bake for 10 min.
7. remove pizza crust, add desired toppings and cook for an additional 11-12 min.
Enjoy!
I managed to get a quick one of some valentine brownies too! All three treats are gluten and dairy free! In addition, two of the three have some fantastic green vegetables included!
