Servings pizza

Prep Time25

Bake Time20

Ingredients

¾ cup water warm
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons active dry yeast
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon ground flax seed
1 ½ cup Arrowhead Mills Organic Gluten Free All-Purpose Flour
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
1 teaspoon corn starch
¾ teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon dried ground basil
1 can pizza sauce your preference
½ cup herb-infused quinoa your preference
1 handful preferred vegetables
2 cups vegan mozzarella cheese shredded

Instructions

Combine slightly warm water, yeast and sugar in a small bowl and let stand for a few minutes to allow the yeast to proof, ensuring your gluten-free pizza dough will rise perfectly.
Add the olive oil and ground flax seed to the proofed yeast mixture and stir.
In a separate, medium-sized bowl add the flour, xanthan gum, corn starch, salt, and dried basil, creating a gluten-free flour blend that will form the base of your pizza dough. Stir until well-combined.
Pour the yeast mixture into the flour mixture and stir until well-combined. Mold the dough into a ball and spray with a light coating of vegetable cooking spray.
Cover the pizza dough, set in a warm (but not hot) place and let it rise for 15 – 20 minutes (or longer if you need the time), allowing the flavors to develop and the dough to become airy and light.
When you’re ready to cook the pizza, begin by heating your oven to 400°F.
Prepare pizza pan by giving it a light spray of vegetable oil, or by coating it with a light dusting of cornmeal ensuring your pizza won't stick during baking.
Place the ball of pizza dough in the middle of your pizza pan. Tear off a piece of plastic wrap large enough to cover the width of your pizza pan. Lightly spray one side of the plastic wrap with vegetable cooking spray. Place the sprayed side down, over the pizza dough, this will help you roll out the dough without using extra flour and without making too much of a mess.
Begin rolling the pizza dough sitting under the plastic wrap. The plastic wrap creates a nice barrier and the rolling pin won’t stick, while the dough spreads out nicely. Occasionally lift the plastic wrap from the dough and turn it in whatever direction is necessary to allow the dough to spread out evenly across the pizza pan.
Continue doing this until you have the pizza dough spread consistently across the pan.
Place the pan in the oven and bake the crust for 10 minutes while you prepare the toppings. This step won’t completely bake the pizza crust, but it will give it a good start so it has a chance to to get crispy in the next step.
Remove the partially cooked pizza crust from the oven and turn the oven up to 425°F.
Top the semi-baked pizza crust with a layer of pizza sauce.
Next sprinkle the herb-infused quinoa over the top of the pizza sauce, being sure to evenly distribute it across the pizza for a delicious and satisfying experience.
Top with sliced, raw veggies and enough vegan mozzarella to coat the pizza (to your preference).
Place the pizza in the oven and bake until the pizza crust is cooked and the cheese has melted, about 15 – 20 minutes.
Remove from the oven and cool slightly before slicing. Serve your gluten-free vegan pizza warm.
