Are you ready to give this grilled pizza crust a try? First, lets make the gluten free pizza base. This pizza dough is probably going to be a lot more firm than what you are used to making. It needs to be more firm to hold up to the grill.

How to Make Gluten Free Pizza Base:

The first step is to proof your yeast so it gets nice and foamy. This helps the pizza crust so that it isn’t so dense.

Slowly add the ingredients into a mixer. (I switched to the dough hook on my Kitchen Aid mixer because it handles the dough the easiest.)

Put the gluten free pizza base dough onto a board and shape into individual pizza crusts.
