- Gluten Free Pizza Recipe

[Guest guest]

,

I've tried several GF pizza crust recipes, and they were so-so...

This winter, though, I finally found one that surprised me, it was so

good!

Do you know the Gluten Free Pantry? www.glutenfreepantry.com

(You can order her stuff on-line or find it in health food

stores/supermarkets.)

GF Pantry makes a new biscuit mix called " Quick Mix " . I took the mix

and used it like Bisquik to make a yeast-free crust - and it was so

yummy! Our favorite so far. Crispy on the outside, light and a little

chewy on the inside.

Here's my basic recipe::

California Pizza

Crust::

2 cups GF Pantry's Quick Mix - or - Pamela's Pancake & Baking Mix

1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 tsp Italian Herb seasonings

1/4 scant cup light olive oil

3/4 - 1 cup cold water, as needed

Toppings::

1 1/2 cups shredded Jack or your favorite cheese (6 oz.)

1 cup GF tomato sauce (we like Muir Glen)

1/2 cup ripe olives, sliced

1 ripe tomato, sliced

1 ripe avocado, sliced

1 tsp herbs - basil, oregano, cilantro, garlic, etc...

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

2. In a mixing bowl, stir the Quick Mix or Pamela's Baking Mix with

the seasonings, cheese, olive oil and cold water just until a soft

dough forms. Pat dough out to a circle on a pizza pan dusted with GF

cornmeal; pinch a slight edge.

3. Sprinkle half of the cheese over the dough. Bake the crust for 10

minutes.

4. Spoon tomato sauce over the top. Sprinkle with olives, sliced

tomatoes, herbs. Top with remaining cheese.

5. Bake for another 10 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.

Garnish with the avocado slices.

Of course, you can top it with any favorite toppings you like...

Enjoy!
