Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Chickpea flour
- 0.5 cups Almond flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a pizza stone or an upside-down baking sheet in the oven to heat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine chickpea flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well mixed.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, olive oil, and water until smooth.
Step 4
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring with a spatula until a dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.
Step 5
Lay a large piece of parchment paper on a flat surface. Lightly dust it with chickpea flour to prevent sticking.
Step 6
Transfer the dough onto the floured parchment paper. Use your hands or a rolling pin to spread it into a round or oval shape, approximately 10-12 inches in diameter and about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 7
Carefully slide the parchment paper with the dough onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.
Step 8
Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until the edges start to turn a light golden color.
Step 9
Remove the crust from the oven. Add your favorite gluten-free toppings, making sure not to overload the crust.
Step 10
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
Step 11
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
