How to Make This Italian Style Gluten-Free DIY Pizza Recipe:
Yield: 6 Servings, Prep Time: 30 minutes, Cook Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
For the Pizza Dough (Makes 2 Pizzas):
320g Caputo Fioreglut Flour
2g Instant yeast
256g Water, room temperature
10g Salt
16g Extra-virgin olive oil
For the Toppings:
Sautéed Portobello mushrooms
Spicy Italian sausage, cooked and crumbled
Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
Fresh spinach leaves
Pepperoni slices
Your favorite pizza sauce
Shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
Set the Mood: Put on some Italian music to get into the spirit. Think Dean Martin or Pavarotti—whatever makes you feel like you’re in a cozy pizzeria in Naples.
Prepare the Dough: In a stand mixer, combine Fioreglut Flour, salt, yeast & water. Mix until a dough forms then drizzle in the olive oil as the mixer runs.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Prep the Toppings: While the dough is rising, sauté the Portobello mushrooms in a bit of olive oil, butter, salt and pepper until they're soft and golden.
Spicy Italian Please: Cook the spicy Italian sausage (or mild...I personally like my Italians SPICY) until it’s browned and crumbly. Quality control is a must so make sure to sneak a bite of sausage.
Slice the Kalamata olives and prepare the spinach and pepperoni.
Roll Out the Dough: Tape parchment paper across your counter (trust me, this makes handling gluten-free dough a breeze) and divide the dough into portions (depending on how many pizzas you want to make).
Cover the dough and everyone's hands in oil and squish, push, stretch each portion into your desired pizza shape. Remember, gluten-free dough can be a bit finicky, so don’t worry if it’s not perfect! It’s all about the taste, not the looks.
Assemble the Pizzas: Spread a generous amount of pizza sauce over each rolled-out dough. Sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese. Add your family’s favorite toppings: mushrooms, sausage, olives, pepperoni..whatever you fancy!
Curse at children in Italian with Mamamia waving arm actions for making a mess.
Bake the Pizzas: Carefully cut around each pizza on the parchment paper and slide them onto a baking tray or pizza stone with the paper still underneath.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Resist the urge to open the oven every 2 minutes...patience, my friends!
Serve and Enjoy: Remove the pizzas from the oven and let them cool for a couple of minutes before slicing. In that time, gather the family, pour another glass of wine (or juice), and enjoy!
Pro Tips To Master the Pizzeria Staple
Hydration is Key: Gluten-free doughs tend to be drier and more finicky than traditional pizza dough. To fix this: Use more liquid than usual as gluten Free Flour soaks up liquids and is often 'stickier' than regular pizza dough. Make sure to let the dough rest before handling. This allows the flours (especially rice and tapioca) to absorb moisture properly.
Parbake for That Extra Crispy Crust: Nobody likes a soggy-bottomed pizza (unless you’re into that). The trick? Parbaking. Roll out the dough and bake it solo at 450°F (230°C) for 10–12 minutes before adding toppings. This firms up the base and prevents the dreaded undercooked center. For extra crispiness, bake on a pizza stone or an inverted baking sheet to mimic that classic pizzeria effect.
The Right Flour Blend = Game Changer. Not all gluten-free flour blends are made equal, and some just aren’t pizza-worthy. We love Fioreglut Flour but find the one that best suits your family. Few Flour pointers....✔️A mix of rice flour, tapioca starch, and almond flour gives you the best combo of chewiness and crisp.✔️ Add psyllium husk or xanthan gum if needed - these act like gluten’s best mate, adding structure and elasticity.✔️ If using a pre-made GF flour mix, make sure it’s high in starch (potato, tapioca, or cornstarch) for that essential chew factor.
So next time you’re in the mood for some gluten free pizza, skip the takeout and make it a fun family night with these Gluten-Free DIY Pizzas. They’re sure to become a regular favorite at your house, just like they are at mine!
