Preparation Steps

• In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour blend, xanthan gum, yeast, sugar, and salt. Ensure they are well combined.
• In a separate bowl or liquid measuring cup, combine the warm water and olive oil.
• Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix with a wooden spoon or a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment until a sticky dough forms. It will be wetter than traditional wheat dough.
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
• Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it preheats.
• Turn the risen dough out onto a lightly floured surface (use gluten-free flour or parchment paper). Gently shape the dough into your desired pizza crust. It's best to press and spread rather than knead.
• Transfer the crust to a pizza peel dusted with cornmeal or onto parchment paper. Add your favorite pizza sauce and toppings.
• Bake for 12-18 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted. Cooking time may vary depending on your oven and toppings.
