Preheat your oven to 220Β°C (428Β°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free pizza crust mix with warm water, olive oil, and eggs. Stir until a smooth dough forms.
Transfer the dough to the lined baking sheet. Using wet hands, gently flatten and shape the dough into a circular base about 1 cm thick.
Bake the pizza base in the preheated oven for 10 minutes until it begins to firm up and lightly golden.
Remove the base from the oven. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the crust.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top of the sauce.
Arrange the sliced red bell pepper, mushrooms, and red onion over the cheese.
Add sliced black olives on top of the vegetables.
Sprinkle the dried oregano over the assembled pizza.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a couple of minutes, then garnish with fresh basil leaves.
Slice and serve warm.
