Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams gluten-free pizza crust mix
- 240 ml warm water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 unit large egg
- 100 grams biltong, thinly sliced
- 120 ml pizza sauce
- 150 grams shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 unit red onion, thinly sliced
- 10 leaves fresh basil leaves
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, prepare the gluten-free pizza crust according to the package instructions, typically combining the crust mix with warm water, olive oil, and a beaten egg. Mix until you achieve a smooth dough.
Spread the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, forming a circle about 12 inches in diameter. Adjust the thickness to your preference, but aim for an even layer.
Bake the crust for about 10 minutes, or until it begins to turn golden brown at the edges.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread an even layer of pizza sauce across the surface.
Top the sauce with shredded mozzarella cheese, creating an even layer across the crust.
Distribute the thinly sliced biltong evenly over the cheese.
Scatter the red onion slices and fresh basil leaves on top of the biltong.
Sprinkle with dried oregano, salt, and ground black pepper to taste.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool slightly, about 3 minutes.
Cut into slices and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious gluten-free biltong pizza!
