Ingredients

• 1 package Gluten-free pizza crust mix
• 1.25 cups Warm water
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 large Egg
• 1.5 cups Tomato sauce
• 3 medium Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried basil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.5 cup Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free pizza crust mix, warm water, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and the egg. Mix well until a dough forms.

Step 3

Lightly grease a pizza pan with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Place the dough on the pan and spread it evenly with your fingers, creating an even crust across the pan.

Step 4

Bake the crust for 10 minutes to set the base.

Step 5

While the crust is baking, prepare the marinara sauce. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the tomato sauce, minced garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper. Stir and let it simmer for 5 minutes, then remove from heat.

Step 6

Once the crust is pre-baked, remove it from the oven and spread the marinara sauce evenly over the crust.

Step 7

Top the pizza with shredded mozzarella cheese and grated parmesan cheese.

Step 8

Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 10-15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is golden brown.

Step 9

Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
