Preheat your oven to 230°C (450°F) and place a pizza stone or a baking sheet inside to heat up.
In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free pizza crust mix, warm water, olive oil, and salt. Stir until a dough forms.
Dust a clean surface with gluten-free flour and knead the dough for about 2 minutes until smooth.
Divide the dough into four equal parts and roll each part into a circle about 6 inches in diameter.
Sprinkle a pizza peel or a flat baking sheet with cornmeal to prevent sticking and place the rolled-out dough onto it.
Spread an even layer of tomato sauce over each dough circle, leaving about half an inch at the edges.
Tear the fresh mozzarella into small pieces and distribute evenly over the sauce.
Sprinkle crushed garlic, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes over the pizzas.
Carefully slide the pizzas onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.
Remove from the oven and top each pizza with fresh basil leaves.
Cut each pizza into slices and serve hot. Enjoy your gluten-free margarita pizza!
