Author's Notes

For best results adding a small amount of almond flour reduces chewiness and enhances the flavor. Alternatively, replace it with Gluten-Free flour or oat flour.

The pizza crust may sit at room temperature for 4 hours after the initial bake, or wrap securely in plastic, cover with aluminum foil, and freeze for up to 3 weeks. When ready to bake, assemble and bake from frozen.

To achieve a golden, crispy crust with a soft layer above for toppings, I highly recommend using a pizza stone. If you do not have a stone, preheat a baking sheet or pizza pan in the oven. While it won’t make as crisp as a crust, it’s better than using a cold pan.

step 1
In the large mixing bowl of a stand mixer, use a paddle attachment to combine low-speed, Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour (1 2/3 cups), Almond Flour (4 Tbsp), Psyllium Powder (2 tsp), Baking Powder (1 tsp), Salt (1 tsp), and Instant Dry Yeast (1/2 tsp).
step 2
Continue mixing on low speed and slowly pour in Water (1 1/4 cups) and Olive Oil (2 Tbsp). Mix until combined. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat for 5 minutes. The dough will be a sticky batter.

step 3
Use a rubber spatula to scrape all the dough into the center of the bowl. Cover securely with plastic wrap and let rise in a draft-free place for 90 minutes. When using a spoon to look inside the dough, it should be bubbly.

step 4
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C). Line a pizza stone with parchment paper. If you do not have a pizza stone, line a large baking sheet with parchment. Spray the paper with Nonstick Cooking Spray (as needed) to grease.

step 5
Transfer the dough to the center of the prepared stone or pan. Use a liberally greased silicone spoon to spread the dough into a circle. Continue greasing the spoon, or the top of the pizza dough, to spread out into an 11 1/2-inch circle. If desired, use greased fingers to shape the edges into a raised crust.

step 7
If assembling and baking the pizza crust later, move to a wire rack to cool completely.
step 8
When ready to make the pizza, place the pizza stone in the oven and then preheat it to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
step 9
Transfer the parbaked crust to the pizza peel for an easy transfer to the hot stone. Spread on Pizza Sauce (to taste), Cheese (to taste), and any preferred toppings. Slide the pizza onto the hot stone using the pizza peel.
step 10
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the crust has browned and the cheese is bubbly.
