Ingredients

Crust: 

  • 1 cup Gluten Free 1:1 Baking Flour plus extra flour for rolling
  • ¾ cup plain Greek yogurt I use fat free
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • Sprinkle of garlic powder
  • 1 egg white for egg wash

Toppings:

  • 1/2 - 3/4 cup Tomato Sauce or Pizza Sauce 2-3 Tbsp per pizza
  • 3/4 cup mozzarella cheese 3 Tbsp per pizza - or less! I have used just one tablespoon or even none, thanks to the ricotta cheese
  • 3/4 cup ricotta cheese (3 Tbsp per pizza)
  • Sprinkle of oregano garlic Powder, dash crushed red pepper
  • 3 Tablespoons Mike's Hot Honey 2 tsp per pizza

Instructions

To make crust:

  • In a stand mixer or a large bowl, combine dry ingredients, then mix in Greek yogurt.  If I am using my stand mixer, I use the dough hook to mix.  Otherwise, use a rubber spatula and your hands!  If dough is too sticky, add a little more flour.  If it feels too dry, add in yogurt, 1 tsp at a time. 
  • On a well floured surface, knead dough by hand until smooth, then make one big ball.  
  • Using a knife or dough cutter, divide into 4 equal sections. 
  • Working with one section at a time, gently roll out the dough on a well floured surface and using a well floured rolling pin.  Be gentle so you don’t break the dough or get it stuck on the rolling pin. Dough should be 4-5ish inches in diameter or the size of a small tortilla. 
  • Carefully flip the dough onto a small piece of parchment paper.  Brush dough with egg wash. 

Air Fryer

  • Preheat Airfryer to 400 degrees and cook for 5-8 minutes or until crust starts to get golden.  
  • Remove crust from air fryer and layer with toppings - sauce, dollops of ricotta cheese, then mozzarella cheese.  
  • Place pizza back in the air fryer without the parchment paper for an additional 5-8 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.  Sprinkle garlic powder, basil, and crushed red pepper, then drizzle with Mike’s Hot Honey. 

Oven

  • Preheat Oven to 400 degrees.  Place parchment and pizza crust on a sheet pan or pizza stone and cook for 8-10 minutes or until crust starts to get golden.  
  • Remove crust from oven and layer with toppings - sauce, dollops of ricotta cheese, then mozzarella cheese.  
  • Place pizza back in the oven without the parchment paper for an additional 5-8 minutes or until cheese is bubbly. Sprinkle garlic powder, basil, and crushed red pepper, then drizzle with Mike’s Hot Honey.
