Moist Pizza Crust

If you want a seasoned pizza crust, add 2 ¼ teaspoons pizza seasoning to the dry ingredients. You have a choice between a thick crust and a thin crust. If you want a thin crust, use by 12” pans. If you would rather a thick crust, use 16 by 12” pans.

Dry ingredients

2 ¾ cups rice flour

1 ¾ cups tapioca flour, plus two tablespoons

3 teaspoons xanthan gum

4 ½ tablespoons dry milk powder

1 ½ teaspoons salt

yeast mix

½ cup sugar

1 ½ tablespoons yeast

2 ¼ cups warm water

wet ingredients

6 egg whites

½ teaspoon xanthan gum

Heat oven at 400, and position rack in the center of the oven. Grease two 14 by 12” (optional) pans. Set aside. Mix the flours, xanthan gum, milk powder, pizza seasoning (optional), and salt, together in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.

Place the sugar, yeast, and water together in a small bowl (see “tips” section for further explanation). Let it rise until the yeast has risen at least an inch. While the yeast is setting, separate the eggs into two small bowls (see “tips section for further explanation). Do not use the egg yolks. Beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until frothy. Add the xanthan gum. Pour the egg whites and xanthan gum into the dry ingredients. Mix it in. Slowly pour the yeast mix in, and stir. Spread the dough out on your pans, and let set for an hour, while you are preparing the pizza toppings. Once the pizza is all topped off, place it in the oven, and let cook for twenty to twenty-five minutes, until crust is lightly browned.
