Awesome!
Been looking for a healthier pizza where the crust doesn’t call for cheese!
I may make that on my weekend off!
Cheers ladies to shared ideas common goals mutual respect kindness and support!✌??????❤
Yes! Cheers to all those things Paula ❤️
I am excited about this one!!
Is it baking powder or baking soda lol. I can’t wait to try it!
Hi Thressa! This recipe calls for 1 tsp of baking powder. 🙂 So excited to hear how you enjoy this recipe after giving it a try!
Thanks for the follow-up. In the ingredients it is baking powder but in the directions it is baking soda.
Thank you so much for catching that and saying something! We can confirm the recipe calls for baking powder. We have updated the instructions to reflect that as well. 🙂
Can’t wait to try this healthy pizza dough!!
Would this hold up with flax egg or other egg replacer? Thanks!
Hi Amy! Our team has not tried this recipe with an egg replacer. Though we do think it will hold up! After giving this recipe a try, will you let us know how you like it? 🙂
I absolutely will! It sounds delicious and I’m always looking for homemade dough recipes.
Do you know if you can make the crust ahead and freeze them?
Our team hasn’t tried freezing the crust ahead of time, but I do believe you could! If you give that a try, please let us know, Brenda! 🙂
Can I use another gluten free flour if I don’t have almond flour?
Hi Jen! Our team has not tried this with a different gluten-free flour. As it turns out, almond flour and other gluten-free flours are not always interchangeable on a one-to-one basis. If you would like to try this recipe with a different flour, it may be helpful to find online what the different ratio should be (if there is one)! The crust may also come out differently than as expected with this recipe. I hope this helps! If you give this recipe a try, please let us know how you enjoy it. 🙂
Is the flaxseed required or just an added benefit? I don’t tolerate flaxseed well.
Hi Janet! Flaxseed is a healthy option and also affects the texture of the crust (it helps to thicken the dough!). Instead of flaxseed, you may want to try chia or hemp seeds – our team has not tried these substitutions and they may change the way the dough comes out. But if you would like to give these a try instead, we encourage you to do so to make this recipe work for you! 🙂
I made this tonight and thought it was great! My kids on the other hand were not too impressed. But we are heading into a gluten and dairy elimination diet and think this might grow on them. Excited to have such a quick and easy gluten free option. Thank you!
Love to hear how much you enjoyed this recipe, Heidi! Cheering you and your family on as you step into these new eating habits, too. 🙂
