Gluten Free Vegan Pesto Pizza
Ingredients
1 Package fast active yeast
3 T warm water
1 1/2 T sugar
1 C white rice flour
1 C brown rice flour
1 C garbanzo bean flour
1 1/2 t xanthan gum
1 t salt
1/2 t baking powder
1 T sugar
1 1/2 C warm water
Directions
In a small bowl add yeast and water and mix until dissolved. Add sugar and let sit for about 5 minutes.
In a large bowl, add dry ingredients and mix well. Add in 1 cup water and yeast mixture. Start to mix and slowly add the extra 1/2 until you have a soft dough. I mix my bread with a wooden spoon.
When fully mixed and nothing sticks to the side, spread the dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet. If the dough gives you trouble and sticks to your hands while rolling out, add a little rice flour, either one, to the top. I use a small rolling pin to roll out my dough.
Bake for 20 minutes on 400. It will turn a nice golden brown color and the sides will get crispy.
