MY WIFE’S FAVORITE PIZZA RECIPE (Homemade Thin Crust Gluten Free Pizza)

To get 10% off your first month go to betterhelp.com/BrianLagerstrom. As someone with a gluten intolerant spouse, this recipe has been a LONG time coming. But a really good homemade gluten free thin crust pizza has been somewhat elusive until now. Lorn and I are very excited to share this one with you. It’s thin, crispy, and just tastes like good pizza.

------
RECIPE - makes 2 pizzas + extra sauce
------
DOUGH
▪220g or 1c warm water (86F/30c)
▪7g or 2 1/4tsp instant yeast
▪3g or 2/3 tsp baking soda
▪8g or 2tsp sugar
▪5g or 1 tsp salt
▪15g or 1 1/4Tbsp olive oil
▪360g or 3c gluten free ap flour (i recommend king arthur or bob’s red mill 1 to 1)
Into a medium/large bowl, add water, yeast, baking soda, sugar, salt, olive oil, and flour. Stir to combine. Once a ball begins to form, switch to using a soaking wet hand to finish mixing until a ball is formed. Cover and allow to “rise” on the counter for 90 minutes.
Divide dough ball into two even (300g) pieces, then round and form into a ball. Feel free to add a touch of extra water if the ball is still crumbly. Oil two pieces of parchment and place the ball in between them (oiled sides toward the dough). Use a large flat surface to press out the dough ball into a wide round, then use a rolling pin (or wine bottle) to press the dough into a 12” round as shown @2:52.
SAUCE (makes enough for six 12” pizzas)
▪1 28oz can nice crushed tomatoes
▪12g or 2 tsp salt
▪20g or 1 2/3Tbsp sugar
▪2g or 1tsp onion powder
▪2g or 1tsp garlic powder
▪1g or 1/2tsp Chile flake
▪1g or heaping 1/2tsp dried basil
▪1g or heaping 1/2tsp dried oregano
▪100g or 1/3c tomato paste
Add all ingredients to a high sided container and spin with an immersion blender for 20-30sec.
TOPPINGS
▪1 lb or 1/2kg block part skim aged mozzarella, shredded
▪8oz or 1/4 kg fresh mozzarella, cubed
▪Pepperonis (or any other toppings you’d like)
Preheat oven to 550F/287C and place pizza steel or stone on the middle rack.
To build your pizza, I recommend using a knife to create a raised crust edge as shown @7:52. Add about 3 spoonfuls of sauce and spread edge to edge. Follow with the fresh mozzarella, breaking it down as you go. Follow with the shredded mozz and pepperonis. Slide the dough (and parchment underneath) onto a pizza peel and load it on to the preheated pizza steel/stone. Bake for 7min at 550F/287C. After 7min, remove the first pizza while you bake your second pizza for 7min. Remove pizza 1 from parchment and load directly onto pizza steel. Bake for 2 min. Repeat with pizza 2.

DUDE! My wife just recently developed some gluten problems. I spent the last week (and weekend) trying to mesh together a gluten free recipe for her and all the while thinking "Damn, why can't I find a nice tutorial like the one's Brian makes for normal pizza". This video came at a PERFECT timing! And it actually addressed the main problems I had on my test run this weekend. Thank you very much!

[@ElianaGhen]

I tried this recipe for the first time last night doing exactly like you with the pizza stone THIS IS THE BEST FREAKEN GLUTEN FREE PIZZA I EVER ATE!!!! Thanks!!!!❤❤❤❤

[@laurenjournet7849]

I am also a Lauren who can’t eat gluten! Can’t wait to try this recipe! Totally welcome to any and all other gluten free recipes you have!

[@THEellieSims]

Pleeeeease make this in to a series! My partner is gluten free and we really struggle to find good recipes for gluten free meals, as the GF flower isn’t always a direct substitute for regular flower. I love your videos but can’t always replicate a lot of the dishes as not GF 👎 this looks amazing though, can’t wait to try it!

[@brettmoore6781]

"This is my wife Lauren" Thanks for not confusing us more 😆

[@lemonysnick5171]

Haha love seeing you guys dance together. Can't wait to try this out!

[@MariMcSly09]

I find that the trick to making glutenfree bread and pizza is making the dough A LOT softer. If the dough is softer, it will rise and it will not crack. And it will also be softer to eat. I have been glutenfree since I was little, so I never actually worked with normal flour, but this is what I noticed watching other people trying to make glutenfree bread or pizza. They always make the dough too though and dry.

[@natehorton7531]

I made this for my GF wife and wanted to thank you for this. I love to cook for her and trying to find good gluten free recipes is tough. This is the best one so far!

[@ebb2012]

Just finished making these for the first time and my wife who is gluten allergic was very impressed and I was a little shocked how easy it was to do and have things come out exactly like the video was really fun. Sauce was very good and so easy. Thanks Brian, really enjoy your content sir!

[@AdventureswithRoger]

Now my favorite segment, that you two have ever assembled! The world needs a lot more happy videos like this!

[@danroberts9081]

Yes Brian! Ever since hearing the misso is gluten free I've had my fingers crossed hoping that you'd be making some gluten free content!

[@loucinci3922]

Love the dance-off at the end. Looks good. Will give it a try tonight. Thanks for sharing.

[@Alander787]

Thank you for this recipe! I tried it out yesterday and the pizza turned out really great! It didnt even have that "gluten-free" aftertaste, it was just like regular pizza. Definitely gonna make it again!

[@porcobianco]

Great video!!! I especially loved the flattening/rolling technique because I have always tried to roll the dough in the same vein as w/ normal flour. And it's always gone south. Thanks a heap. Can't wait to try this.

[@DanielleA2023]

Your channel absolutely EXCELS in providing information regarding ingredients, quantities etc You say, show & caption the EXACT information we viewers need 👍🏼

[@Jholmberghawaii]

Fabulous techniques. Thanks for all the testing!

[@50sKid]

The internet speaks and the Lagerstroms deliver…pizza!

[@pawsitivelyhomemade2973]

I made this pizza for a friend who has cut out gluten. I wasn’t expecting much. We both were pleasantly surprised and enjoyed the pizza very much. The recipe makes two and we ate both! I have also made the flourless chocolate cake…excellent!! Thank you for including these GL recipes to your channel.

[@kl8132]

PIZZA BLISS!!! Amazing job Bri, and again you have answered my why questions before I even asked them. Knowing the role gluten plays in dough is very important and here it has enabled you to create Pizza Bliss without it. Those that have true gluten allergies truly suffer and trying to eat in a world full of it is very very very difficult. Hats off to you sir!! Great video, thank you

[@seand8030]

This pizza looks amazing, I am going to give the recipe a try. Sometimes I make pizza for my extended Fam but my nephew is GF and his pizza has always been a total let down, it often barely resembles pizza. Also, I started putting fresh cracked pepper on my pepperroni pizza before I bake it and it is delicious!
