Introduction: The Yummiest Homemade Pizza

By

I don't know about you guys, but I crave pizza A LOT. Problem is, I don't have enough money to buy pizza every time I want some. So I make my own pizza!

This is a very easy recipe for your own homemade pizza with a thin, crunchy base. I hope you enjoy it!

Step 1: Ingredients and Tools

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups gluten-free flour of normal flour
  • 150 ml boiling water
  • 75 ml oil
  • 10 ml baking powder
  • A pinch of salt
  • Tomato paste
  • Toppings of your choice (if you are using meat, like bacon or chicken strips, cook it beforehand)

Tools:

  • Baking tray
  • A plastic container with a lid (I used an ice cream tub)
  • Non-stick cooking spray
  • Oven
  • Rolling pin
  • Sieve

Step 2: Make the Base

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
  • Pass the flour through the sieve into the container.
  • Add the boiling water.
  • Add the oil.
  • Add the baking powder.
  • Add the salt.
  • Close the lid.
  • Shake the bowl for about 1 minute, until the ingredients are combined and form one or more balls. Use those arm muscles!
  • Spray the baking tray with the non-stick cooking spray.
  • Take the batter, form it into one ball and smooth it out onto the baking tray. You can use a rolling pin or the palm of your hand.
  • The thickness depends on how you like it.
  • If it is a bit sticky, don't worry. Wet your hands OR dip your fingers in the flour (don't do both!) and spread the batter.
  • Put it in the oven for 10 minutes.

Step 3: Decorate Your Pizza

  • After 10 minutes take your pizza base out of the oven, but don't switch the oven off yet.
  • Spread the tomato paste on the pizza using the back of a spoon.
  • Put on your toppings!
  • I used cheese, garlic, bacon, salami sticks (which i cut into small chunks), pineapple, avocado (which i put on after the whole pizza was done) and Italian herbs.
  • Then put your pizza back in the oven until the cheese melts, about 5 minutes.
  • Enjoy your homemade, yummy pizza!
