It is important to anybody who is gluten intolerant that they can still enjoy a variety of healthy and tasty recipes and this is no different when it comes to pizza! This wheat free recipe will make a delicious and safe pizza recipe that can be enjoyed wholeheartedly.

Ingredients

The Pizza Crust

1 tablespoon of dry yeast

2/3rds cup brown rice flour or sorghum flour

1/2 cup of tapioca flour

2 level teaspoons of xanthan gum

1/2 level teaspoon salt

1 level teaspoon of unflavoured gelatine powder

1 level teaspoon Italian herb seasoning

2/3rds cup of warm milk or non-dairy liquid

1/2 level teaspoon of sugar

1 teaspoon of olive oil

1 teaspoon of cider vinegar

Extra rice flour for sprinkling onto the crust

The Pizza Sauce

1 can (8 oz.) tomato sauce

1/2 level teaspoon of dried oregano leaves

1/2 level teaspoon of dried basil leaves

1/2 level teaspoon of crushed dried rosemary

1/2 level teaspoon of fennel seeds

1/4 level teaspoon of garlic powder

2 level teaspoons of sugar

1/2 level teaspoon of salt

Toppings of your choice to suit your taste and mood!

Instructions

For the Sauce: Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes, while Pizza Crust is being assembled. This will make about 1 cup.

For The Crust: Prepare your oven. If you still don’t own a proper pizza oven, you can see some options clicking here. In medium mixer bowl using regular beaters (not dough hooks), blend the yeast, flours, xanthan gum, salt, gelatine powder, and Italian seasoning on a low speed. Add warm milk, sugar, oil, and vinegar.

Beat on high speed for 2 minutes. (If the mixer bounces around the bowl, the dough is too stiff. Add water if necessary, one tablespoon at a time, until dough does not resist beaters.) The dough will resemble soft bread dough.

Put mixture on a greased 12-inch pizza pan. Liberally sprinkle rice flour onto dough, and then press dough into pan, continuing to sprinkle dough with flour to prevent sticking to your hands. Make edges thicker to hold the toppings.

Bake pizza crust for 10 minutes. Remove from oven. Top the Pizza Crust with sauce and your preferred toppings. Bake for another 20–25 minutes or until top is nicely browned.

Do you like the idea of spending time with your family and friends, cooking delicious food in your backyard? Most people will tell you that it's nearly impossible to cook pizza outdoors and they are right — that is if you don't have an outdoor oven. Believe it or not, oven manufacturers have found a way to make an oven work in your garden, and anywhere else outside your house.

The Benefits of Outdoor Ovens

Outdoor ovens save you a lot of kitchen space. They also free your kitchen from the hot temperatures of oven baking.

Outdoor ovens are efficient and durable, so chances are your purchase will last for many years to come. They also require almost no cleaning and very little maintenance. 

Besides baking, you can also use them to barbecue, roast, grill and even smoke. You can even use them as a heat source on those cold evenings.

Types of Outdoor Oven

There are many types of outdoor ovens (also known as wood-fired ovens) available on the market. These include dome-like ovens, as well as ovens that are made of adobe, brick or clay. The latter three types are capable of reaching much higher temperatures than standard ovens. Adobe is basically a mixture of dirt, straw and water. This mixture can be solidified into bricks or a solid structure. 

You can install these outdoor ovens in your garden or anywhere around your home. They let you grill, smoke, bake or cook your food and have a gala party anytime you want. They can be really useful and convenient to a homeowner who likes spending time outside in the backyard, or on the deck or patio.

You Can Cook More Than Just Pizza

Besides pizza making, you can also cook bread, vegetables, meat and even stews. Depending on the recipe, some foods will require that you use aluminum foil for the cooking process for protection. But generally, you can cook directly on the oven floor if you wish to do so. 

Conclusion

When choosing from a variety of outdoor ovens, you need to choose one that would best suit your individual purposes. For example, wood-fired ovens can be added onto an existing outdoor area or built as the focal point of your brand new outdoor kitchen. They can also be added to your outdoor kitchen or barbeque area to compliment your patio style. They will change the way you cook and enhance your outdoor cooking experience.
