Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1.25 cups Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Cornmeal
- 0.75 cup Tomato sauce
- 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Pepperoni slices
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons Fresh basil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix well.
Add the warm water, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough gently for about 3 minutes on a lightly floured surface.
Place the dough in a bowl, cover it with a clean cloth, and let it rest for 15 minutes.
After resting, roll out the dough onto a pizza stone or a baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal to prevent sticking.
Spread the tomato sauce over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
Arrange the pepperoni slices on top of the cheese.
Sprinkle dried oregano over the pizza.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
