I have a love hate relationship with pizza. I love it I really do, but the crust. We all know the crust is loaded with gluten and if I cheat? I pay. Oh boy do I pay!
Well, much to my surprise, Betty Crocker and Bisquick have a gluten free variety now! Woohoo! Not only can I make those wonderful biscuits I love I can now make the thing I love so much, pizza!
When I was contacted to work with Betty Crocker and Bisquick, I jumped at the chance, since we love a good homemade pizza. Though I was provided the traditional Bisquick, I thought I would try the Bisquick™ Gluten Free mix and have at it! Pizza # 1 was a total failure. I was expecting traditional I guess. The gluten free pizza dough is anything BUT traditional in texture and taste. So I set about like a chemist experimenting and Pizza #2? Homemade gluten free pizza perfection! A crispy cracker like crust (look out Papa Johns) that’s the perfect base for all our favorite toppings. My favorite pizza sauce is this one and its super easy to make but any jar of pizza sauce found in the grocery that you like will do. And here’s how I did it!

Your crust will look a little like this (above).If you prefer a little less clean up, I tried cooking this on parchment and while the parchment will need to be thorougly buttered, the crust is wonderfully crisp.

That looks great. Pizza is a favorite that no one should have to miss out on.
I wanted pizza for dinner but was overruled. This post did not make me want pizza any less. ;)
I get voted down regularly, not on pizza but on other things.. Sometimes I just cook for myself
This homemade pizza looks delicious. I love the fact that it is gluten free since so many people prefer modified diets.
That looks fantastic! I love the gluten-free Bisquick – so versatile!
