Gluten Free Pizza Video

I have tried so many pizza crust recipes in an effort to find what I think is the best one.  My calzone-recipe makes an excellent dough, but this one is delicious, too.  I often use basil pesto instead of tomato sauce for my topping base.

This recipe is amazing!  The presenter has a list of other videos on youtube at http://www.youtube.com/user/guruchief#p/u.

Gluten Free Pizza Dough

(This recipe makes dough for two casserole-dish pizzas.)  The recipe comes from Gina, Gluten Free and is an adaptation from http://www.glutenfree.com/index.cfm/homemadebagels.html.  Thank you, Gina, for sharing!

1 T. gluten-free yeast
1  t. salt
1 lightly beaten egg (large)
1 cup plus 1 T. water
1 t. cider vinegar or 1/4 teaspoon ascorbic acid
2 T. honey
2 T. vegetable oil
  1. Combine mix, yeast and salt.  
  2. Heat water to lukewarm (110 degrees).  Add vinegar, honey, oil, and egg. Beat the mixture well to prevent the egg from cooking.  Add wet to dry ingredients; beat on low speed to combine. (The mixture will be thick.)
  3. Knead dough by hand or with dough hooks for 2 minutes or until mixture is smooth. 
  4. Divide the dough in half.  Grease two glass casserole dishes.  Place your hand inside a plastic baggie, and oil the bag.  Put one dough ball into a dish.  Using the greased or oiled bag-hand, spread the dough out evenly.  Repeat with the second dish and dough ball.    
  5. Bake for 12 minutes at 450 degrees.  Allow to cool before serving.
