Ingredients

• 1 package Gluten-free pizza crust mix
• 0.75 cup Warm water
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 piece Large egg
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 2 cups Mixed mushrooms (such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster), sliced
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Dried Italian herbs
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

In a large bowl, prepare the gluten-free pizza crust according to the package instructions. Typically, this involves mixing the crust mix with warm water, olive oil, and an egg until a dough forms.

Step 3

Shape the dough on a piece of parchment paper into a round pizza shape, about 12 inches in diameter. Transfer to a pizza stone or baking sheet.

Step 4

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, until it begins to set and lightly browns.

Step 5

While the crust is baking, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet, along with the dried Italian herbs, salt, and pepper. Cook until the mushrooms are soft and any liquid has evaporated, about 5 to 7 minutes.

Step 7

Remove the partially baked pizza crust from the oven. Spread the cooked mushroom mixture evenly over the top.

Step 8

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the mushrooms evenly.

Step 9

Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 12 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh basil leaves and grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 11

Allow the pizza to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious gluten-free mushroom pizza.
