Gluten-Free Pizza Crust

My go-to Gluten-Free Pizza Crust recipe is a simple staple for your Gluten-Free kitchen. Perfectly thick and chewy, and no kneading required.

Making a Gluten-Free Pizza can seem like a daunting task. It’s one of those foods that you dream about and think of fondly when you remember your past gluten days. But you don’t have to be afraid of it. This pizza crust recipe is super simple and doesn’t require any kneading. It’s gluten-free and only uses a few ingredients, making it our favorite pizza crust recipe.

Can I make this gluten-free crust dairy-free?

The recipe for the crust is dairy-free. It uses olive oil. You can top the crust with your favorite dairy-free cheese. Another options is to leave the cheese off all together and brush on some dairy-free butter and sprinkle it with garlic salt – after its cooked.

What other flours can I use in this gluten-free pizza crust?

I have tested this recipe with Bob’s Red Mill 1-to-1 Gluten Free Flour Blend (affiliate link). It works incredible in this recipe and it’s my other go-to flour blend.

We’ve used this recipe several times just this month, and we’ve started passing the recipe on to friends and family member to show them how easy making your own pizza at home can be. We usually bake up a couple of extra crusts and store them the in the freezer for super busy nights when we need to make dinner quickly. Simply pull a crust out of the freezer, heat your over, top, and bake. Just like store bought pizza crusts, only better.

Can I substitute something for the egg?

Sure, you can use a flax egg (2.5 tablespoons water + 1 tablespoon ground flax seed). Make sure to let your flax egg sit for 5-10 minutes until it get thick and egg-like. Just note that the crust won’t be a fluffy in the center. I haven’t tried other egg replacers in this recipe.

You mention a pizza stone in your directions, I don’t have one.

First, I highly recommend getting a pizza stone (affiliate link) if you don’t have one. It really makes a huge difference when you make pizza. But no worries. If you don’t have one, simply use a heavy baking sheet. If you don’t have a heavy baking sheet then you can use a cookie sheet. Let it preheat in the oven just as you would a pizza stone.

Making homemade pizza has always been comforting to me. In a lot of cases, you’ll make the pizza in about as much time as it would take to get delivery or run to the store, so it’s not that much of a time sacrifice when you think about it. Plus, homemade pizza has such a unique taste, something you can’t get from a delivery. And a lot of times, I prefer the taste of homemade pizza.

If you make this gluten-free pizza crust please stop back by and let me know what you thought. Also, if you have any questions please let me know in the comments and I will get back to you.
