Gluten Free Pizza Crusts
Does your family like gluten free pizza? My family does! My kids would rather have pizza for dinner than anything else. You can even grill pizza crust!
My kids would eat pizza 4-5 days a week if I let them. I have one child who loves to heap a ton of meat on his pizza, and one picky one who will only have plain cheese pizza. In making this pizza, I am hopeful that my “picky” eater will realize that something green on a pizza is okay.
She likes basil, so hopefully, she will love this pizza.

Family Favorite Gluten Free Flatbread Recipe
My family loves this easy gluten free flatbread recipe! The secret to a great pizza crust is the gluten free flatbread. This is the chewy crust that holds up to sauce and toppings. I will show you below how easy it is to make a gluten free flatbread pizza…my kids love to help make them.
Have you tried Mezzetta’s pasta sauces yet? This gluten free pizza sauce is full of Italian flavor.
Mezzetta Pizza Sauce is all-natural, certified gluten free, no sugar and no paste. It is a real sauce, and you can definitely taste the difference, especially on the gluten free flatbread pizza.
I am thrilled Mezzetta went through the effort to have their products certified gluten free because knowing a product is safe takes away the stress!
How To Make Gluten Free Flatbread Recipe:
Prepare the dough and allow it to rise.
Heat a baking stone and then press the dough out on the hot baking stone. Bake the flatbread pizza crust on a pizza stone so it gets nice and crispy. With gluten free crust, it is always best to bake it before adding toppings. Otherwise, you can end up with a doughy middle.
Top the gluten free flatbread pizza crust with pizza sauce.
Add your favorite toppings. Here I used fresh basil. Do you think my daughter will try this gluten free pizza with green on top?
Bake and enjoy!!

Tools You Need To Make This Gluten Free Pizza Recipe:
-
- Pizza Stone. This is what gives you that yummy crispy crust. The handles are also really great. I have tried pizza stones without handles and I almost burned myself trying to get it out of the oven!
- Electric Mixer. Awesome mixer for pizza dough! It is my bff because it has three different attachments. I used the dough hooks to blend this dough easily!

I have a couple of jars of Mezzetta peppers, but had no idea they’ve expanded to include pizza sauce. Sure makes pizza night easier. Looks delicious, Sandi. Nice and cheesy 🙂

Their pizza sauce is really delicious, definitely worth buying.

We often have make your own pizza nights. We don’t eat gluten free, but these pizza look great. I will have to look for that sauce the next trip to the store!

Cathy
This gf flatbread tomato basil pizza looks wonderful. I want a piece right now.
So when you make it on the stone, the stone is not hot, right? I always thought you had to get the stone hot before putting anything on it. Or are you forming the crust shape on something else and then sliding it on a hot stone?
Sorry for the dumb questions.
Sandi Gaertner
Hi Cathy, Thank you for your question. I did heat the stone first. I am so used to heating it, I forgot to add that. Thank you so much for the reminder 🙂
