Ingredients
For gluten-free pizza crust:
- 300 g gluten-free flour MixIt Universal by Schar
- 250 ml warm water
- 2 Tbsps olive oil + 1 Tbsp oil for greasing the pan
- ½ tsp sea salt
- 1 pack dry yeast by Schar
For topping:
- 6 cubes spinach frozen, thawed
- 5 florets broccoli frozen, thawed
- 150 g tofu simple or smoked (smoked tofu tastes better in this combination)
- 6 green olives
- r tbsp vegan pesto
Instructions
- Mix all pizza crust ingredients into a large bowl. Mix using a spoon.
- The dough will be extremely sticky and moist. Don't worry, this is just as it is supposed to be.
- Cover an oven tray with some parchment paper and lightly grease it.
- Pour the dough right in the middle.
- Start spreading it using the tablespoon, using circular motions, from the inside to the outside. You want to give it a somewhat circular shape.
- When the pizza crust has a round shape, grease your hands with some oil and start shaping its margins and make it even rounder. You can even press it on top. If it gets sticky, just grease your hands some more.
- Add pesto all over the pizza crust and spread it with a spoon.
- Add spinach puree and spread it all over, then broccoli florets, grated tofu and olives.
- Put the pizza in the oven at medium heat for about half an hour.
Notes
If you can't find MixIt Universal GF flour mix by Schar, you can use another GF flour mix of choice. Just make sure it's a GF flour blend and nut just a simple GF flour. Also, if you try this pizza crust recipe with regular all-purpose flour containing gluten, it may not work. Gluten makes the crust more elastic and it may not have the same texture, so the technique cannot be applied.
