Makes 1 12-inch pizza. Difficulty
Easy
Ingredients
For crust: 3/4 cup warm water (105-115°F) 1 Tablespoon sugar 2-1/4 teaspoons dry active yeast 2 cups gf flour (see note below in Tips section) 1-1/2 teaspoons kosher salt 1-1/2 Tablespoons olive oil Extra olive oil for forming dough
Topping: 1/2 to 3/4 cup gf pizza sauce (try Muir Glen’s organic pizza sauce) 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, grated 1/4 cup Romano cheese, grated 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
Directions
In a small bowl combine warm water, sugar and yeast. Stir and proof for about 5 minutes or until foamy.
Mix gf flour and salt in work-bowl of a heavy-duty mixer fitted with a paddle.
Add 1-1/2 tablespoons olive oil to proofed yeast. Pour yeast mixture into flour mixture and mix on medium speed for 6-7 minutes. The dough should be soft enough to cling to the sides of the bowl. If it is too stiff, add warm water, 2 tablespoons at a time until dough softens.
Turn dough out onto a greased pizza pan. Drizzle dough with olive oil and rub your hands with a little olive oil. Press dough into an even layered circle, creating a little lip around outer edges. If it starts to stick to your hands rub your hands with a little more olive oil.
Cover pizza crust with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for about 20 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400°F. Bake pizza crust for 7 minutes. Remove from oven (keep oven on).
Spread pizza sauce on top of pizza crust. Sprinkle with mozzarella, Romano and Parmesan cheese. Bake at 400°F for 20 minutes or until cheese is melted and lightly browned in spots.
