Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package (about 10-12 oz) Gluten-free pizza crust mix
- 0.75 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 cups Fresh spinach leaves
- 0.5 cup Marinara sauce (gluten-free)
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Cornmeal or gluten-free flour (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.
Prepare the gluten-free pizza crust dough according to the package instructions. Typically, this involves combining the mix with warm water, olive oil, and eggs. Knead or mix until a smooth dough forms.
Sprinkle a clean surface with cornmeal or gluten-free flour. Roll out the dough into a 12-inch circle or the desired pizza shape.
Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough onto a sheet of parchment paper for easy handling.
Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the crust, leaving about half an inch of edge uncovered for the crust.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, ensuring even coverage.
Distribute the fresh spinach leaves across the cheese layer.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried oregano, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using) over the spinach for added flavor.
Using the parchment paper, carefully transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet.
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it sit for 5 minutes before slicing.
Slice the pizza into pieces and serve hot. Enjoy your gluten-free spinach and cheese pizza!
