INGREDIENTS:
1 tbsp GF dry yeast
2/3 cup brown rice flour or bean flour
1/2 cup tapioca flour
2 tbsp dry milk powder/nondairy milk powder/sweet rice flour
2 tsp xanthan gum
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp unflavored gelatin powder
1 tsp Italian herb seasoning
2/3 cup warm water (105 degrees F)
1/2 tsp sugar or 1/4 tsp honey
1 tsp olive oil
1 tsp cider vinegar or 1/4 tsp unbuffered vitamin C crystals
cooking spray
STEP BY STEP:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. In medium mixer bowl using regular
beaters (not dough hooks), blend the yeast, flours, dry milk powder,
xanthan gum, salt, gelatin powder and Italian herb seasoning on low
speed
Add warm water, sugar (or honey), olive oil, and vinegar
Beat on high speed for 3 minutes. (If the mixer bounces around the bowl,
the dough is too stiff. Add water if necessary, one tablespoon at a
time, until dough does not resist beaters.)
The dough will resemble soft bread dough. (You may also mix in bread
machine on dough setting. ) Put mixture into 12-inch pizza pan or on
baking sheet (for thin, crispy crust), 11×7-inch pan (for deep dish
version) that has been coated with cooking spray
Liberally sprinkle rice flour onto dough, then press dough into pan,
continuing to sprinkle dough with flour to prevent sticking to your
hands
Make edges slightly higher to contain toppings
Bake the pizza crust for 10 minutes. Remove from oven
Spread pizza crust with sauce and toppings. Bake for another 20-25
minutes or until top is nicely browned.
