Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 packet Active dry yeast
- 1 cup Warm water
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Tomato sauce
- 2 cups Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 10 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and the packet of active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
Add the olive oil and salt, and gradually mix in the gluten-free all-purpose flour. Stir until a soft dough forms.
Knead the dough in the bowl by hand for about 5 minutes, then cover it with a damp cloth. Let it rest in a warm place until it doubles in size, approximately 30-40 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Once the dough has risen, oil a rectangular baking sheet with olive oil and spread the dough onto the sheet using your fingers, to reach the edges evenly.
In a small bowl, mix together the tomato sauce, minced garlic, dried oregano, and crushed red pepper flakes.
Spread the sauce evenly over the dough, then top with shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese.
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh basil leaves. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
