Ingredients of the Gluten Free Pizza Crust:

Wet Ingredients:

• –1/3 cup (70mL) milk, any unsweetened variety will do including rice and soy
• –2 teaspoons apple cider or white vinegar
• –2 teaspoons Olive Oil

Dry Ingredients:

• –1 1/3 cup rice flour (300mL) (using brown rice flour makes a crispier more rustic crust, using white flour will make a smoother fluffier crust)
• –1 cup (235mL) corn starch
• –1 tablespoon yeast
• –2 teaspoon xanthum gum (this I for the texture, can be substituted for guar gum)
• –1 teaspoon sea salt
• –1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• –1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
• –1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

1. In a small sauce pot. Heat milk until warm, not hot. You should be able to dip your finger in the milk without it burning.

2. In a mixing bowl add the yeast and slowly pour in the warm milk as you stir. Slowly pouring and mixing makes the yeast dissolves quite nicely. The just set it aside, giving the yeast time to activate.

3. In another mixing bowl mix the remaining dry ingredients, the flour, corn starch, gum and spices.

4. By now the yeast should be activated in the milk. You will know it is ready to move on if there are some bubbles forming in the milk.

5. Add the vinegar and the olive oil to the milk.

6. In the large mixing bowl with the dry ingredients create a little bowl with your fingers so that that you can pour the milk mixture into the bowl you made with the dry ingredients.

7. Pour the milk mixture in the bowl of dry ingredients. Now you can mix the dry and wet ingredients together.

8. Once combined it will be sticky. Before you roll the dough out in a pan, be sure to do two things. 1) spray the pan or baking sheet with non-stick spray or grease the pan with olive oil or butter 2) dust the sticky dough with a bit of the flour so that it doesn’t stick to your hands when you pick it up.

9. Now all you have to do is spread out your pizza dough on your pan. Enjoy
