Ingredients
- 1 cup Chickpea flour
- 0.75 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 cup Tomato sauce
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Toppings of choice (e.g., sliced vegetables, pepperoni, fresh basil)
- 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together chickpea flour, water, olive oil, salt, garlic powder, and dried oregano until you have a smooth, lump-free batter. Let the batter sit for 5-10 minutes to rest.
Step 2
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and place a cast-iron skillet or pizza stone inside to heat for 5 minutes.
Step 3
Carefully remove the skillet or stone from the oven and spray it lightly with non-stick cooking spray.
Step 4
Pour the chickpea batter onto the hot skillet or stone, spreading it out evenly to form a thin crust with the back of a spoon.
Step 5
Place the skillet or stone back in the oven and bake the crust for 10 minutes, or until it begins to set and develop light golden edges.
Step 6
Remove the crust from the oven and spread an even layer of tomato sauce over the surface.
Step 7
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce, then add your favorite toppings.
Step 8
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let the pizza cool for 2-3 minutes. Slice into portions and serve immediately.
