Ingredients
Paleo Pizza Crust
- ¾ cup cassava flour
- ½ cup tapioca flour or arrowroot starch
- 1 tsp salt sea salt
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- 1 egg
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ½ cup water warm
Toppings
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup dairy-free cheese
- basil optional, chopped
- red pepper flakes optional
- drizzle balsamic vinegar optional
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a pizza pan with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cassava flour, tapioca flour, sea salt and garlic powder. Stir.
- Then, add in egg, olive oil and warm water. Stir until a sticky dough forms. Allow pizza dough to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.
- Spread about 2 tablespoons tapioca flour onto parchment lined pan. Coat hands in tapioca flour as well.
- On the pan, form a large ball with dough. Use your hands to press dough into a large crust, approximately ½ inch thick. Wipe off any excess tapioca flour from crust. Brush a little olive oil all over crust.
- Bake pizza crust without toppings for 15 minutes.
- Remove pizza from oven. Add sauce, cheese, and other desired toppings. Bake for another 7 to 8 minutes or until cheese has melted.
- Finally, remove from oven and garnish with chopped basil and a balsamic drizzle if desired.
Notes
- See blog post above for step by step photos.
- I do not recommend substituting for the cassava flour. This will not work well with almond flour or coconut flour.
- Do not try to replace the egg with a Vegan replacement. The egg is very important!
- Coat both hands and parchment paper with tapioca flour to avoid sticking.
- Continue baking pizza (with toppings) until cheese is melted and the crust has reached desired level of crispiness.
- To freeze pizza, slice into individual slices and freeze.
- I have had the best luck with Vevan Vegan cheese, but feel free to use your favorite.
