Gluten-free Cheese Pizza

Since I can't eat gluten, because of health related reasons, I've been able to perfect our GF pizza recipe. Please, don't mind few toys on the photos here and there, my 4yo son insisted on helping me :-).

Dont forget to preheat your oven to 400F (half as much in celsius). I use top and bottom heater of the oven.

Dough (amount to make two pizzas)

• 2½ cups (400g) Gluten free flour blend (I used Doves Farm self raising white flour)
• 5tbsp Olive oil
• 2tsp salt
• 2tsp sugar
• 1 cup (250g) water
• 1tsp dry east

Topping

• Grated emental type of cheese
• Bleu cheese
• Ricotta
• Brie or camembert type of cheese
• Garlic
• Oregano
• (optional) Bacon
• (optional) Egg
• (optional) chicken breast

Frankly, I put every ingredience of dough recipe into my bread maker. In whatever order I feel like :-). This way even my son can do it.

Bread maker was set to dough program and let it do its thing.

Since there is no gluten to stretch, it's not really important to knead the dough. GF dough is very hard to work with and very sticky (thats why I use silicon mat), so after we split dough to two portions, we sprinkled it with some more flour and made it somewhat flat with our fingers.

Then we took food foil and flattened it even more with roller. Thanks to food foil, the dough sticked only to foil (which was easily removed later), and not to roller.

Dough was rolled to 2-3mm thickness.

For a heavy cream base I mixed

• 1/2 cup of Ricotta (you can add bit more, if your pizza is rolled bigger)
• 2 tbsp of heavy cream
• Grated emental to taste
• 2 cloves of minced garlic (could be finely chopped)
• salt & pepper
• Oregano to taste

If its too runny add grated emental, if too thick, add heavy cream. Spread finished product all over your pizza dough.

I've then positioned rest of the ingredients in an artistic way. Since I don't mind meat, I've added thin slices of chicken at the top and finely chopped bacon as a first layer after topping base.

After transfering whole silicon mat (which is heatproof so I use it instead of baking paper), with pizza on it, to baking tray, I added egg to the center.

Since this dough is gluten free, there is no way of manipulation with it, without tearing it apart.

Pizza was baked for 20mins on 200C.

Good apetit!
