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:

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
