    Gluten Free Pizza Dough

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe
    gluten free pizza crust

    I saw another food blogger post about grilled pizza crust, and I immediately knew I needed to try it! I ran to the grocery store and bought a Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Pizza Crust Mix so I could make it and put it on the grill. It was a complete flop! I was devastated! Fortunately, I had all of the ingredients I needed to make my Low Carb Pizza Crust so we could still have pizza that night. I wasn't brave enough to try it on the grill though because I had a very hangry toddler waiting for his pizza!

    But I was determined to try again!

    Ingredients you need to make gluten free pizza dough:

    • 2 cups gluten free all purpose flour plus more for dusting (Cup4Cup is my favorite)
    • 1 packet rapid rise yeast
    • 1 cup warm water (heat in microwave for 1 minute)
    • 1 tablespoon honey
    • ½ teaspoon baking powder
    • 1 tablespoon garlic salt
    • 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
    • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

    What gluten free flour to use for gluten free pizza dough:

    All gluten free flours are not created equally, especially when it comes to making this gluten free pizza dough. King Arthur Gluten Free Flour, and Cup 4 Cup Gluten Free Flour are my favorites for making this pizza dough.

    Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Pizza Crust mix is great for this pizza as well. Just ignore the instructions and ingredients on the back because it doesn't work, and use the crust mix as flour following the instructions and ingredients listed in this recipe. Bob's Red Milll 1 to 1 Baking Flour works in this recipe, but the All Purpose Flour does not because it doesn't contain xanthan gum.

    How to make gluten free pizza dough on the grill:

    Preheat your oven to 400°F and your grill to 350°F

    Warm 1 cup water in microwave safe dish for 1 minute

    Add 1 tablespoon honey to warm water and stir

    Add yeast packet that came with the crust mix to the honey and water, stir, and cover with a clean dish towel for 5 minutes 

    After 5 minutes, yeast should appear "foamy" 

    should yeast look foamy when it's ready

    In the bowl of your stand mixer, add 2 cups Gluten Free flour (save the rest for dusting), ½ teaspoon baking powder, 1 tablespoon garlic salt, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar, and foamy yeast mixture.

    Turn mixer to low and mix until a dough has formed (depending on the type of flour you use, it may be sticky and wet)

    Lay a piece of parchment paper (about 12x16 inches) on your counter and dust with gluten free flour

    Turn the dough ball out onto the floured parchment paper

    Dust the dough ball with more flour and knead until it is no longer sticky

    Roll the ball out into a large rectangle (about 10x14 inches)

    Brush the top with olive oil and place the dough in the oven for 5 minutes (this makes the dough firm enough to transfer to the grill without it falling apart)

    Transfer to the grill, olive oil side down.

    Turn heat to low, close lid, and cook for about 5 minutes, until bottom of crust is golden brown

    Remove crust from grill and flip it over so browned side is on top, then add your favorite toppings

    Place back on grill and cook on low heat with lid closed for another 5 minutes, until cheese has melted and bottom is golden brown 

    Carefully remove pizza from grill and dig in!

    My toddler asks for grilled pizza every day now! Some of our favorite toppings are "cheeseburger" using lean ground beef, onions, and cheddar cheese and BBQ chicken pizza with sautéed onions.

    When my best friends visited, I made this pizza for them, and they LOVED it! So does my picky bonus kid! So get out there and make this gluten free pizza dough!

    How to cook gluten free pizza dough in the oven:

    Brush the top of the rolled out dough with olive oil and bake at 400°F for about 5-8 minutes, until bottom is golden brown

    Remove from oven and flip the gluten free pizza crust over so the cooked side is on top

    Add your favorite toppings and place back in the oven to bake for another 5-8 minutes until bottom is golden brown and the cheese has melted
