"pan Pizza" (A La Pizza Hut)

Gluten free copycat "Pan Pizza!"

Ingredients:

1 cup milk

1/2 cups water

2 tbsp. honey

1 1/2 tbsp. yeast (or so)

2 tsp. xanthan gum

3 cups gluten-free Flour Blend (approximately 1/3 starch, 2/3 flours - my blend was 1 cup sorghum, 1 cup rice, and 1 cup tapioca starch)

Pinch or two of salt (I used sea salt - how salty you like your pizza crust is up to you)

Olive oil (or other oil of your choice)

Spices to taste (garlic powder, basil, oregano, thyme, etc.)

Directions:

Combine the warm water, honey, & yeast in a bowl & let stand until the mixture bubbles, about 5 minutes.

Add the flour to your mixing bowl. Mix in xanthan gum, basil, oregano, garlic powder, & salt. Add the liquid ingredients and mix until you get a soft, sticky dough.

Liberally oil your pan. Oil your hands or a spatula. Press the pizza dough into your chosen pan (I use a steel paella pan - something steel or cast iron works REALLY well, and gives the crispy outside that makes pan pizza so good).

Let rise in a warm place until the dough has approximately doubled in size.

Preheat oven to 500 degrees.

Par-bake the crust for about 10 minutes. You don't want it cooked, you just want it more or less solid.

Remove the crust (CAREFULLY) from oven, and oil the top of the baked crust. The oil on the top and bottom are IMPORTANT, since they are what give the crust the crispy outside while retaining the chewy middle bits).

Top with your favorite pizza toppings, and bake for another 15 minutes, or so, until everything is cooked to your satisfaction. My cheese was quite browned, which is how I like it!

Remove (VERY CAREFULLY) from the oven, let cool, and enjoy!! Especially if you're using a paella pan, it will be difficult to safely remove from the oven, so be EXTRA careful. I almost lost my pizza when I made it the first time, because the only downside to my pan is the little tiny handles, which are VERY hot after 20 minutes at 500 degrees!

A bigger pan will mean a thinner crust, so experiment with pans and making more or less dough until you find what works for your pan. This recipe could easily be divided into several mini personal pizzas, although I'd watch the cooking time VERY carefully so they didn't burn. You'd probably par-bake the crust less, and bake the finished pizzas for less time.

BTW, after a bit of hunting around and looking at wheat-based copycat recipes, it looks like the milk is an important ingredient in making this recipe taste "authentic." I suspect it's because it adds protein to the mix, so if you can't have dairy I'd try using a high-protein nut milk of some kind, or replacing the milk with water and using high-protein flour in your blend. I imagine it would still be pretty good pizza, even dairy-free. :)

For variety, I want to try an alfredo-sauce breakfast pizza sometime (alfredo instead of tomato sauce, eggs, cheese, maybe bacon), and you could probably get really fancy and make the crust into one of those cheesestick crusts The dough is sturdy enough that you could totally line the outside of the crust with string-cheese sticks (I'd probably pull them in half length-wise), and then wrap them in crust. I'd do it before even the rise cycle, personally - you'd just want to watch it extra carefully so the cheese didn't burn.

Update: it looks like the recipe needs a bit more water, and probably a bit of oil in the dough, to be really perfect. I would try about 2 tablespoons of oil in the dough, and another half-cup or so of water. My pizza crust was a bit dry. It also didn't rise quite enough, so maybe I should just have been more patient this time! ;)

This sounds so good. I used to love the pan pizzas. What size pan did you use?

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight.  My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she suggested it.

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet.  I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now.  He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs.  It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc.  It's literally neurological inflammation.  Not to be taken lightly here.  We have sought out many other possible ways to cope during this window of time (8 months!!!!)  without success.   AN-PEP does not help and seems like studies on this are not well researched.  So, we are trying this out because research shows some promising results.  And, all participants showed no cravings afterwards, no signs of addiction.  The patch is different than the oral route such as smoking, vaping, gum, pouch, etc.

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-Free.

      Hi all  I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also].  BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering if others suffer from nausea, even if following a gluten free diet.
