Ingredients

  • 3 cups gluten free flour
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 0.5 tsp baking powder (aluminium free)
  • 3 tbsp caster sugar
  • 10 g dried yeast
  • 1.25 cup warm water
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Gluten free flour blend

  • 320 grams white rice flour
  • 120 grams tapioca flour
  • 0.75 tsp xanthan gum

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 C)
  • In a small bowl, combine yeast and 3/4 cup  warm water and 1 tbsp of sugar- make sure the water is not too hot as it will kill the yeast - Let it sit for 5 minutes to activate
  • In a separate bowl, combine gluten free flour blend, salt, baking powder and remaining 2 tbsp  sugar. Whisk until well combined
  • Make a well in the dry mixture and add the yeast mixture. Add the olive oil and additional 1/2 cup  warm water before stirring. Mix until combined well
  • Lightly coat a baking sheet or pizza stone with some oil and place your dough in the middle of the tray or stone and spread it out until you have a large pizza shaped circle, about 1/4 of an inch thick
  • Put the pizza in the oven and bake for  25-30 minutes, or until it begins to look dry. Cracks may appear, but that's normal. Remove from oven and spread generously with your favorite pizza sauce, ( we used the Waitrose Cook's sun dried tomato paste) dairy free cheese and any other topping you like. We used Violife dairy free "mozzarella" cheese
  • Place back in oven for another 20-25 minutes, or until the crust edge looks golden brown and the toppings are warm and bubbly. Cut immediately and serve

THE SCIENCE BIT

In clinical practice over 85% of children with autism benefit from a gluten free diet. Behaviour improves, food choices increase, gut problems lessen and mostly disappear, sleep gets better, eye contact improves, language expands…..there isn’t a supplement on the planet that can do all that!
