Crispy Pizza Crust

Hello,

I really don't like many of the breads/pizza crusts or baked goods I've tried. I cannot stand feeling like I'm eating a flopped attempt at these items.

Is there such a thing as a crispy pizza crust? I love fried corn tortillas and rice crackers and would like to know if any of you ever tried making a pizza crust recipe from primarily corn flour?

I've even used the corn tortillas with sauce and cheese and like it much better than any crust.

Thank you!

This is my pizza crust recipe. When I want a really crispy crust, I use a pizza pan with holes in it instead of the 9 x 13 pan, spray it with PAM, and dust it with corn meal.

gluten-free Pizza Crust

1 packet yeast (about 1 tablespoon)

3/4 cup milk, room temperature

1/2 cup potato starch

3/4 cup cornstarch

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoons baking powder

1 tablespoon xanthan gum

I have used a brown rice wrap to make a pizza. It ends up being a crispy crust.

My son likes the Kinnikinnick crusts. I rub a generous amount of olive oil on a cookie sheet and prebake the crust at 375 degrees for 5-10 min. Then I add toppings and bake for another couple minutes. This should help with any premade crusts.

The above recipe sounds great. I think I'll try it.

Does anyone else find homemade gluten free pizza crusts...bland? :rolleyes: I even add garlic and pizza seasoning. I think it's the rice flour. Next time I try to make pizza I will replace a significant part of the rice flour with corn and sweet rice flour. Anyone else have ideas?

I make the same one Fiddle Faddle does--I leave out the optional seasonnings. It's very good.

OH!!! I have THE answer for you....I am from St. Louis originally and the Kinnikinik crusts are too thick and sweet for a really good pizza for me.

I found Chebe mixes to be AWESOME......better than when I was baking WITH gluten....... Just about any of the flavors work. I follow the directions on the back as far as mixing goes....then seperate the dough into 2 balls. Roll it out really, really thin on parchement paper and prebake until it is a slightly golden on top, flip it over and bake a fw more minutes, THEN add your toppings........

Seriously, this is the BEST crispy pizza crust ever.......I also use this to make crackers for myself. I cut it with a pizza cutter into bite size pcs and keep flipping and baking until they are brown, then let them cool and they are yummmmmmy crackers!!

I am a laaaazy baker, so have never tried a crust yet...

but I LOVE LOVE LOVE Amy's Cheese/Rice Crust pizza. Kinda pricey (about $7 at my Whole Foods), but it's my treat about once or twice a month. I add fresh basil and tomatoes, adn if you bake it directly on the rack, it is really light and crispy. I actually seriously prefer it to regular pizza.

Thanks so much for all the suggestions.

Fiddle Faddle, I actually have all the ingredients for the recipe you mentioned so I will try that first.

My sister makes rolls from Chebe bread and loves it, but I don't think she ever did pizza crust with it. I haven't found that locally yet.

I think the local store had the Kinnikinnick crusts but I remember thinking how expensive it was.

I've tried the glutino ones and made my own out of a pizza crust mix I bought (can't remember which one) and didn't like either.

Thanks again - I can't wait to try these ideas.

I've tried Amy's Gluten Free Rice Crust Pizza (crust is rice and sunflower seeds) a couple of times and it comes out crispy for me also.

I baked it on a cookie sheet, the first time it was a little soft but I tried it again and cooked it longer than the directions say until it crisped up and the cheese browned a little around the edges.

I also added a little extra cheese and all kinds of different toppings.

For a frozen pizza it is pretty delish, imo.

Also, the Food For Life Brown Rice Tortillas tend to be crispy depending on how you prepare them. I've broiled them with topings, brushed them with olive oil and baked them until crisp, cut in wedges to make kind of a "chip".

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
