Gluten Free Pizza Crust

I've tried several pizza "crust" recipes and this one is definitely a keeper. Hubby said he would eat it again, gladly, and that is a ringing endorsement! He knows that if he doesn't tell the truth, he will have to eat it again.

 

1 cup Brown Rice Flour Mix

1/2 cup Buckwheat flour

1 tsp xanthan gum

1/2 tsp salt

2 tsp granulated sugar

1 packet (1/4 oz) dry quick-rise yeast

1 tsp olive oil

1/4 cup plus 1 tbsp water, heated to 110 degrees Farenheit

 

 

1. Mix all the dry ingredients together in a large bowl of electric mixer. Pour olive oil and warm water into mixing bowl; mix until just blended.

 

2. Scrape bowl and beaters, and then beat at high speed for 2 minutes.

 

3. Spoon dough into center of prepared pan (I used a round baking stone). Use a cake spatula to move dough from center to outer rim of pan. Make the dough as thin as possible.

 

4. Cover with a light cloth and let dough rise in a warm place for 30-40 minutes. Pizza crust should double in height.

 

5. Preheat oven to 425 degrees while pizza dough is rising.

 

6. Bake pizza in pan for 15-16 minutes. Pizza shoule be light golden in color. Remove from oven and cover with pizza sauce and topping of your choice. I used marinara sauce, spinach, mozzarella, and crisp bacon.

 

7. Return to oven and bake for an additional 10  minutes. Remove from oven and let rest for 3 minutes before slicing.
