Hi ya'll,

I'm looking for a pizza recipe for my new pizza stones (yeah!). The catch is it needs to be gluten and yeast free. I tried one the other night - let's just say we ended up having pizza bread (where everyone gets a piece of bread from the frig and piles on the toppings...). The recipe just didn't hold together and roll out. In the past I have used a more liquidy recipe and poured it onto a cookie sheet. The family became tired of this and asked for a more authentic pizza. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Try a cauliflower crust. Sounds gross but is SOOO yummy. Very filling too, but without the bloat
Here are a couple links.
They are all pretty similar

I know it is hard to believe, but these do form a nice crust and taste pretty darn good!

I use either Gluten Free Mama's Almond Blend or Pamela's Bread Mix Flour Blend for my pizza crust. Depending which flour blend determines what recipe I use and the added yeast is, in my opinion, optional. I rarely add it to my crust as I like to save it for actually making gluten free loaf bread. Namaste has a really good pizza crust mix too. Basically its about 2 cups flour, oil, and water and optional yeast. I don't think I use xanthan gum either. I wish I still had the package, I accidentally threw it out without cutting off the recipe! (Ah!). When I make my gluten free crust, I spread it in the pan, sprinkle it with my Italian seasonings, poke it with a fork all over and then cook it. I feel it makes a more authentic crust. I almost forgot, I use a stone bar pan from Pampered Chef. I oil it, sprinkle it with gluten free course ground cornmeal, then I spread out the crust (it is supposed to make two 10 inch pizza's but I always just make it in my stone bar pan) then I do the seasonings and fork poking :)

I have a recipe coming up on the 9th of January on my Raising Jane blog for yeast-free gluten-free pizza that is the result of my DIL Ashley testing several versions before we proclaimed, Winner!

Also, in my book, Milk Cow Kitchen, we perfected the concept of a cauliflower pizza crust that holds together just like a regular crust. You know, a wedge in your hand the next day for cold breakfast pizza!?

Several of the non-gluten-free folks here at the farm liked our gluten-free versions better.

I recommend Mary Jane's recipe in her Milk Cow Kitchen book . . . we've made that MANY times. We also put a lot of different things on for toppings too! It's a favorite in our home!

P.S. If you don't care for cauliflower, I still recommend it . . I don't think you'll know it's cauliflower!

Thanks for all of the yummy ideas. Cauliflower pizza crust, huh? I remember seeing this in the pizza contest a while back in mjf magazine. Sounds different but very willing to give it a try!

Thanks for the multitude of ideas countrymommy85! Sounds like you have much experience in working with gluten free recipes. I'll see if any of these are available at our local health food store.

Can't wait to see the results of Ashley's hard work! So glad my need and your experimenting lined up so perfectly!

Hugs,
