Making Your Own Pizza Dough And Sauce

I got a pizza stone from Pampered Chef and was going to make my own gluten-free pizza dough. Has anyone tried doing this on a pizza stone? I was going to use the recipe in Annalise Roberts book, but the instructions are for on a baking sheet or directly on the oven rack and I'm wondering if it's a bad idea to do it on the stone.

Also, anyone have recipes for making pizza sauce?

I'm also interested in a pizza sauce recipie. I do use a jarred pizza sauce that is gluten-free. It is called Enrico's All Natural Pizza Sauce. It says gluten-free right on the label. I've purchased it from Whole Foods and Meijer's which is like a Super Kmart.

Bob's Red Mill makes a great gluten-free pizza mix. We haven't tried it on a stone, but it is awesome on a normal pizza tray. Can't imagine it would be any different on a pizza stone. Lucky you for getting one from pampered chef...I'm jealous.

No experience with a stone but if it were me I'd just try putting a layer of parchment paper between the stone and the dough for the first time to see how it reacts.

Good luck!

Oh how I used to love my pizza stone!! I did go out and buy a new stone so I could make my daughter pizza but just recently gave up and went out and bought a tray!

The recipe for foldable NY style pizza crust that was posted recently is really excellent- however, like most gluten-free breads, the dough is very wet and hard to form with hands (way too sticky). So, it is easier to throw it on a pan and then just mash it down.

If I were to go back to the stone I think I would try the parchment paper idea, then make the dough into a ball and put a large piece of plastic wrap over it then roll it out with a rolling pin. The problem with all of this is that the stone is best used really HOT - like preheated with the oven to close to 500 degrees. So taking it out of the oven to perform this operation would be difficult.

Another possibility is to use a pizza piel (is that how you spell it? - the long paddle thingy) and put the parchment paper on the piel then do the pizza on top and slide the whole thing onto the stone in the oven. I am not sure I am actually making any sense this morning but hope this helps.

Good luck!

I just wanted to ditto Barb's recommendation of the NY style foldable crust recipe. It's by far the best pizza crust we've tried yet and it's really simple to make. I don't think I will ever use another pizza recipe.

Sorry, I dont' have a recipe for pizza sauce. I use Great Value brand's sauce and it's really good and inexpensive too. Oh wait, I do sometimes use GV brand no salt added tomato sauce and then add oregano, garlic, and onion powder until it tastes right. It's much easier to just buy the pizza sauce though.

I used to put a little cornmeal on the pizza stone to prevent the dough from sticking. It's been a long time, but I think I put cornmeal on my cutting board and formed the pizza on that and then slid it onto the pizza stone.

I make pizza a lot and the dough is very wet.

I recently got a pizza stone and it is hard to use, but really cooks the crust well. You'll have to decide if the extra trouble is worth it or not.

Put a lot of olive oil on the stone first.

Spray a large wax paper with Pam and spread out most of the dough on it, then flip it over onto the stone and finish spreading it out by hand.

Cook about 10 minutes or until lightly browned on top.

Take out of the oven and use a sharp spatula to pry the crust up from the stone. This takes a few minutes - work your way around from the edge inward.

Turn the crust upside down on the stone and bake about another 5 minutes. Then take out, flip back over, top and finish baking as usual.

The result is a well-cooked crust that stays together and you can pick up and eat. My whole family really loves it. As the stone gets seasoned with more use, the whole process becomes easier (it becomes more non-stick).

Good luck!

here's another idea . . . (yeah, I'm getting a lot done today, NOT)

Take a look at that incredibly yummy NY pizza dough recipe. It calls for you to bake the crust for about 20 min. first and then 10 min. with the toppings on.

Maybe it would work well to make the crust in the pan - cook for 20 minutes. Then remove from over, put the pre-cooked crust on a cutting board or pizza piel and put your toppings on then slide it onto the heated pizza stone in the oven. And, yes, a bit of corn meal is a good idea to prevent sticking.

But I think this two step idea will work well. The dough won't be sticky and you will still be able to get that great crispy pizza stone pizza in the final product. It is a little "worky" but what gluten-free recipe isn't?! ;)

I like the Brazillian cheese bread for crust.

I made the "New York Style" crust on my pizza stone several times last week.(we really liked it!). I just oiled my stone and then put the dough on while the stone was cold. I used a lot of brown rice flour to pat the dough down and even used my pampered chef roller thing to roll it all out to the edges. This does require a good amount of flour however because the dough is really sticky. I baked the crust for about 15 minutes in a preheated oven, topped it and then baked it for maybe another 10 minutes-til it was bubbly. For my sauce I just take a small can of tomato sauce and add garlic, salt and pepper, basil and lots of oregano until it tastes good to me. We don't like a lot of sauce so this works great for us and I never have to worry about the sauce going bad in my fridge because I don't use it all. I have also just done the prebake with the crust on my stone and then let it cool, wrapped it and put it in the freezer for later.

I use a small can of tomato paste, and thin it to the consistency I want with V8. then add a clove of minced garlic and Italian herb blend.

I'll bet canned crushed tomatoes will be the right consistency. Add some garlic and herbs and we'll head over for lunch! :lol:

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!

      Navigating medication safety with Celiac disease can be incredibly stressful, especially when dealing with asthma and severe allergies on top of it. While I don't have personal experience with the HealthA2Z brand of cetirizine, your caution is absolutely warranted. The inactive ingredients in pills, known as excipients, are often where gluten can be hidden, and since the FDA does not require gluten-free labeling for prescription or over-the-counter drugs, the manufacturer's word is essential. The fact that you cannot get a clear answer from Allegiant Health is a significant red flag; a company that is confident its product is gluten-free will typically have a customer service protocol to answer that exact question. In situations like this, the safest course of action is to consider this product "guilty until proven innocent" and avoid it. A better alternative would be to ask your pharmacist or doctor to help you identify a major national brand of cetirizine (like Zyrtec) whose manufacturer has a verified, publicly stated gluten-free policy for that specific medication. It's not worth the risk to your health when reliable, verifiable options are almost certainly available to you. You can search this site for USA prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      What you're describing is indeed familiar to many in the Celiac community, especially in the early stages of healing. When the intestinal villi are damaged from Celiac disease, they struggle to properly digest and absorb fats, a condition known as bile acid malabsorption. This can cause exactly the kind of cramping and spasms you're seeing, as undigested fats can irritate the sensitive gut lining. It is highly plausible that her reactions to dairy and eggs are linked to their higher fat content rather than the proteins, especially since she tolerates lean chicken breast. The great news is that for many, this does improve with time. As her gut continues to heal on a strict gluten-free diet, her ability to produce the necessary enzymes and bile to break down fats should gradually return, allowing her to slowly tolerate a wider variety of foods. It's a slow process of healing, but your careful approach of focusing on low-fat, nutrient-dense foods like seeds and avocado is providing her system the best possible environment to recover. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: Thank you for sharing your story—it's a valuable insight for other parents navigating similar challenges.

      I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats, yes they were gluten free, but some brands are at the higher end of gluten free. Lots of celics can eat Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, but not me. I can now eat them, but they have to be grown and processed according to the "purity protocol" methods. I mail order them, Montana Gluten-Free brand. A food and symptoms and activities log can be helpful in tracking down issues. You might be totally aware, but I have to mention about the risk of airborne gluten. As the doc that diagnosed me warned . . Remember eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to your stomach and intestines.  Are you getting any cross contamination? Airborne gluten? Any pets eating gluten (they eat it, lick themselves, you pet them...)? Any house remodeling? We live in an older home, always fixing something. I've gotten glutened from the dust from cutting into plaster walls, possibly also plywood (glues). The suggestions by many here on vitamin supplements also really helped me. I had some lingering allergies and asthma, which are now 99% gone. I was taking Albuterol inhaler every hour just to breathe, but thiamine in form of benfotiamine kicked that down to 1-2 times a day within a few days of starting it. Also, since cutting out inflammatory seed oils (canola, sunflower, grapeseed, etc) and cooking with real olive oil, avocado oil, ghee, and coconut oil, I have noticed even greater improvement overall and haven't used the inhaler in months! It takes time to weed out everything in your life that contains gluten, and it takes awhile to heal and rebuild your health. At first it's mentally exhausting, overwhelming, even obsessive, but it gets better and second nature.
