Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Tapioca starch
• 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.75 cup Warm water
• 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, tapioca starch, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix well to combine the dry ingredients evenly.

Step 2

In a separate small bowl, mix together olive oil, warm water, and apple cider vinegar.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir with a spatula until the mixture forms a smooth, sticky dough.

Step 4

Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rest in a warm place for about 10-15 minutes, allowing the yeast to activate slightly.

Step 5

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 6

Once the dough has rested, transfer it to the prepared baking sheet. Lightly oil your hands to prevent sticking, and gently press the dough out into a round shape approximately 1/4 inch thick.

Step 7

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, just until it begins to lightly brown.

Step 8

Remove the crust from the oven and add your desired toppings.

Step 9

Return the topped pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and any cheese on top is melted and bubbly.

Step 10

Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, slice, and serve your delicious nut-free, gluten-free pizza!
