Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free pizza crust mix with 1 cup of water, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and 1 large egg. Stir well until a dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a greased pizza pan or baking sheet. Using your hands, spread the dough evenly to form a crust, about 1/4-inch thick.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes until it starts to firm up.
While the crust is baking, prepare the toppings: slice the cherry tomatoes, bell pepper, and red onion thinly.
Once the crust is partially baked, remove it from the oven. Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce evenly over the crust.
Sprinkle 1.5 cups of mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce.
Arrange the sliced cherry tomatoes, bell pepper, red onion, and 1/4 cup of black olives evenly over the cheese.
Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of dried oregano, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper over the vegetables.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pizza from the oven and garnish with 0.25 cup of fresh basil leaves before serving.
Slice the pizza into servings and enjoy your homemade Vegetarian Gluten-Free Pizza!
