Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon dry yeast
  • 2/3 2/3 cup gram flour (I use 'garfava' flour which is a blend) or 2/3 cup fava bean flour (I use 'garfava' flour which is a blend)
  • 1/2 cup tapioca flour
  • 2 tablespoons powdered milk (Dairy alternative, 2 T tapioca flour or sweet rice flour in place of 2 T dry milk powder or non-dair) or 2 tablespoons non-dairy powdered coffee creamer (Dairy alternative, 2 T tapioca flour or sweet rice flour in place of 2 T dry milk powder or non-dair)
  • 2 teaspoons xanthan gum
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
  • 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
  • 2/3 cup water (110 degrees F)
  • 1/2 1/2 teaspoon honey or 1/2 teaspoon agave syrup
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon cider vinegar

Method

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • In medium bowl using regular beaters (not dough hooks), blend all ingredients on low speed.
  • Beat on high speed for 3 minutes.
  • (If mixer bounces around bowl, dough is too stiff. Add water if necessary, one tablespoon at a time, until dough does not resist beaters.) Dough will resemble soft bread dough.
  • Put mixture on lightly greased 12-inch pizza pan or 11 x 7-inch pan (for deep dish version).
  • Liberally sprinkle rice flour on dough, then press dough into pan, continuing to sprinkle with flour to prevent sticking to hands.
  • Make edges slightly thicker to hold toppings.
  • Bake pizza crust for 10 minutes.
  • Remove from oven.
  • Spread pizza crust with your favorite sauce and toppings.
  • Bake another 20 to 25 minutes or until top is nicely browned.
