Thin vs. thick crust pizza. While some may see this as a classic rivalry, in our opinion, we adore both! You'll find that this versatile grain-free recipe produces either a thick fluffy crust or a delicate thin crust, all depending on how thin you roll it out! This means any kind of pizza, any time you want. It hits the spot every time. Make this one as soon as possible!

Prep Time: 20-25 Minutes
Cook Time: 20-35 Minutes
Total Time: 50 Minutes

Ingredients 

  • ¼ cup very warm water plus ½ cup warm water, divided
  • 1 Tablespoon maple syrup or honey
  • 1 packet (2 ¼ teaspoons) active dry yeast (we recommend Red Star Brand)
  • 2 cups Otto’s Naturals – Cassava Flour (fluff with a whisk before measuring)
  • 3 eggs, room temperature
  • ¼ cup olive oil or ¼ cup butter
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions   

  1. Preheat oven to 500°F.
  2. In a bowl dissolve the maple syrup or honey into ¼ cup very warm water. (The goal is for the water to still be warm, but not hot, to the touch after the sweetener has been dissolved. Start with very warm or hot water since your sweetener will cool it down.) When your temperature is around 110°F, sprinkle yeast on top and mix in. Allow to sit until it gets nice and frothy on top and doubles in size. This can take 5-20 minutes depending on the yeast batch. Warm water will make it develop much, much faster, but HOT water will kill it so make sure you've hit that optimal temp. before adding your yeast.
  3. While the yeast mixture is "proofing," combine cassava flour and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk your eggs and olive oil together with a fork. (If using butter, you can cut that into the dry ingredients instead.)
  5. When your yeast is ready, add it, the egg mixture, and the remaining ½ cup of water to the dry ingredients and mix well. Let stand 5 minutes to firm up a bit. You will end up with something between a batter and a dough.
  6. Place a piece of parchment paper down on a baking stone or sheet and flour generously. Spoon dough onto parchment, dust top with a bit more flour and then shape with your fingertips/hands into your favorite pizza shape.
  7. Dust with a little more flour, and then fold over edge or build up with your fingers to create a lip to keep sauces/toppings in place while baking. Add your favorite sauce & toppings. For an optional step, spray edge with avocado oil to give it a nice golden-brown color!
  8. Bake for 15-35 mins until outer edge & bottom crust are golden brown. Keep in mind that bake times will vary depending on how thick you’ve decided to keep your crust and the types of toppings.
  9. Remove from oven and let it set for around 5-7 minutes before slicing!
