Ingredients

  • Caputo Gluten-Free Pizza Dough x 6
  • Pepperoni, to taste
  • Fresh Mozzarella, to taste
  • Ciao Authentica Crushed Tomatoes, to taste
  • Fresh Basil, to taste
  • Drizzle of Mike's Hot Honey, optional
  • Rice Flour, to dust

Instructions

  1. Prepare Caputo Gluten-Free Pizza Dough and preheat home oven to 500–550°F or outdoor pizza oven to 700–800°F.
  2. Stretch the dough on a surface lightly dusted with rice flour.
  3. Layer the pizza with Ciao Authentica Crushed Tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, and pepperoni. Add fresh basil before or after baking, depending on preference.
  4. Bake in a home oven for 7–10 minutes, or in an outdoor pizza oven for 1–2 minutes, until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

Notes

  • Rice flour helps prevent sticking while stretching gluten-free dough.
  • Fresh mozzarella should be well-drained to avoid excess moisture on the pizza.
  • Baking times may vary depending on oven temperature and pizza thickness.
  • For extra crispiness in a home oven, preheat a pizza stone or steel for 45 minutes – 1 hour before baking.
