Ingredients

• 250 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 5 grams Instant yeast
• 5 grams Salt
• 5 grams Sugar
• 180 milliliters Warm water
• 20 milliliters Olive oil
• 120 milliliters Tomato sauce
• 150 grams Fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
• 10 leaves Fresh basil leaves
• 10 milliliters Olive oil for drizzling
• 10 grams Gluten-free cornmeal (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, instant yeast, salt, and sugar.

Step 2

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the warm water and olive oil.

Step 3

Mix the ingredients together using a wooden spoon or your hands until a sticky dough forms.

Step 4

Knead the dough lightly in the bowl for about 2-3 minutes, then cover the bowl with a damp cloth.

Step 5

Allow the dough to rise in a warm place for about 60 minutes or until it has doubled in size.

Step 6

Preheat your oven to the highest setting, around 250°C (480°F), and place a pizza stone or baking tray inside to heat up.

Step 7

Once the dough has risen, dust a clean work surface with gluten-free cornmeal.

Step 8

Transfer the dough to the work surface and gently press it into a circular shape, about 25 cm (10 inches) in diameter.

Step 9

Take the hot pizza stone or baking tray out of the oven and carefully place the dough on it.

Step 10

Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the surface of the pizza, leaving a small border around the edge.

Step 11

Distribute the fresh mozzarella slices evenly across the pizza.

Step 12

Drizzle a little olive oil over the top of the pizza.

Step 13

Bake the pizza in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned and the crust is golden.

Step 14

Remove the pizza from the oven and top it with fresh basil leaves.

Step 15

Allow the pizza to cool for a couple of minutes, then slice and serve immediately.
