Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups oat flour (gluten-free if needed)
  • 3/4 cup rice flour (I used sweet rice flour)
  • 3/4 cup tapioca or arrowroot powder
  • 3/4 cup cornstarch or potato starch
  • 1 tsp salt or salt substitute
  • 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp baking powder (optional)
  • 1 tbsp dried parsley

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups warm water (110-115 degrees F.)
  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 2 tsp active dry yeast
  • 3 tbsp ground flaxseed
  • 6 tbsp unsweetened applesauce

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, add all the dry ingredients, whisk together, and set aside.
  • In a second bowl, mix the warm water, yeast, and sweetener. Mix together and set aside for about 5 minutes. Add the flaxseed, stir, and let the mixture sit for an additional minute.
  • Add the dry to the wet ingredients. Mix together and let it sit for 10 minutes. The dough will be sticky but should hold together like a ball.
  • Divide the dough in half, forming each piece into a ball. Sprinkle flour on your kitchen counter and roll eac ball into a pizza round, big enough to fit your pie pan. Using your fingers, adjust the pizza so that you have some edges to the pizza, similar to a dessert pie.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Bake the pizzas for 10 minutes.
  • Add your preferred toppings and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the bottom looks golden brown. (I used a plant-based cheez sauce with tomato slices and sliced olives, sprinkled with more parsley). Allow to slightly cool before serving.
