Recipe By The Spruce Eats

A gluten-free pizza crust is surprisingly easy to make at home and this recipe has a taste that rivals any regular crust. It's flavored with italian herbs, a healthy fit for your dietary needs, and no one will know that it's made with a special flourOne of the easiest ways to transform a flour-based bread product like pizza crust into a gluten-free delight is to use a gluten-free flour. It's available in most grocers that cater to this specialty diet and it's a simpler option than recipes that require a special mix using things like rice or tapioca flour and potato starch. To make up for the lack of gluten in the flour, you do need to add xanthan gum and baking powder. The xanthan gum can typically be found in the gluten-free baking section as well. It is a secret ingredient to making bread work because it helps with the dough's elasticity. Likewise, the baking powder is included so the dough will rise. This semi-thin crust is easy to make and you can pre-bake it and freeze it so you have a crust ready for your next pizza night. All you have to do is top it with your favorite pizza toppingsgluten-free, of course. If you happen to have leftovers, this crust will stand up to reheating it for lunch as well.
