Pizza Crust

Ingredients

1 tbsp dry yeast
2/3 cup brown rice flour or gram flour or fava bean flour (the recipe author uses garfava flour, which is a blend)
1/2 cup tapioca flour
2 tbsp powdered milk or non dairy powdered coffee creamer (dairy alternative, 2 tbsp tapioca flour or sweet rice flour)
2 tsp xanthan gum
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp unflavored gelatin
1 tsp Italian seasoning
2/3 cup water (110 degrees)
1/2 tsp sugar or honey or agave syrup
1 tsp olive oil
1 tsp cider vinegar

Instructions

1 – Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

2 – In medium bowl using regular beaters (not dough hooks), blend all ingredients on low speed.

3 – Beat on high speed for 3 minutes.

4 – (If mixer bounces around bowl, dough is too stiff. Add water if necessary, one tablespoon at a time, until dough does not resist beaters.) Dough will resemble soft bread dough.

5 – Put mixture on lightly greased 12-inch pizza pan or 11×7-inch pan (for deep dish version).

6 – Liberally sprinkle rice flour on dough, then press dough into pan, continuing to sprinkle with flour to prevent sticking to hands.

7 – Make edges slightly thicker to hold toppings.

8 – Bake pizza crust for 10 minutes.

9 – Remove from oven.

10 – Spread pizza crust with your favorite sauce and toppings.

11 – Bake another 20 to 25 minutes or until top is nicely browned.
