Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up while you prepare the pizza.
In a large mixing bowl, combine gluten-free pizza flour and baking powder.
Add olive oil and honey to the flour mixture, then gradually stir in warm water. Mix until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a tablespoon of flour at a time until it reaches the right consistency.
Knead the dough gently on a lightly floured surface for 1 to 2 minutes until smooth.
Roll the dough out into a 12-inch round on a piece of parchment paper. Use a little extra gluten-free flour to prevent sticking, if necessary.
Spread the no-salt-added tomato sauce evenly over the rolled-out crust.
Sprinkle the low sodium mozzarella cheese over the sauce layer.
Top the pizza with grape tomatoes, red onion, sliced mushrooms, and fresh basil leaves.
Season lightly with ground black pepper to taste.
Transfer the pizza with the parchment paper onto the preheated pizza stone or a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until the crust edges turn golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
