One of my favourite recipes…
To keep you busy until you’re able to visit me in the Teaching Kitchen,
try this gluten-free / dairy-free, Paleo, and/or AIP recipe that is part of my weekly repertoire.
Thin-crust Pizza Crust (GF / DF, Paleo, & AIP)
A simple thin-crust pizza that will hold ALL of your favourite toppings!
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup tapioca flour
- 1/4 cup + 2 Tbsp coconut flour
- 1 tsp cream of tartar
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup warm water
- Preheat oven to 400*F.
- Combine dry ingredients and mix well.
- Add olive oil and begin to stir.
- Slowly add the warm water, rolling the mixture with your hand to ultimately form a ball of dough. (You may or may not need to use all of the water. The coconut flour will gradually absorb the moisture, so add little bits slowly.)
- Flatten the ball of dough in the middle of a pie plate, and slowly press it outwards until the entire pie plate is evenly covered, and you have even created a low “edge” to the pizza crust.
- Bake 8-10 minutes or until crust begins to turn gold in spots.
- Remove from oven, add toppings and return to oven for 8-10 minutes to bake toppings. (If topping with cheeses, return to oven on “broil” setting to facilitate melting.)
