Ingredients:
Crust:
1 tbsp sugar or maple syrup
1 cup warm water (105°F - 110°F)
1 tbsp active dry yeast
2 cups GF AP flour (I use Pamela's Artisan Blend)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
(double if you're having a party!)
Sauce & Topping Combo Ideas:
Tomato sauce / fresh veggies / vegan mozz / Italian seasoning
Olive oil & fresh herbs / fresh tomato / vegan mozz & parm / fresh oregano / microgreens
BBQ sauce / criminis / shredded carrots / corn / vegan mozz / fresh cilantro
Alfredo sauce (recipe here) / spinach / vegan parm / pine nuts / fresh basil
Tahini sauce (recipe here) / red onion / sun dried tomatoes / vegan mozz / radicchio leaves
Hoisin sauce (recipe here) / shiitakes / shredded carrots / mung bean sprouts / scallion
Pro tip: Miyoko's Creamery Fresh VeganMozz is incredible and worth every penny.
Directions:
Combine sugar, warm water, and yeast in a glass and let sit until foamy (about 5 mins) - if your mixture doesn't get foamy, your water is too hot or too cold. Or your yeast is old and dead. Try again!
In the bowl of a stand mixer, add flour, oil, and salt
Dump in the yeast mixture and mix using the hook attachment (or use your hands if you don't have a mixer) just until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl
If your dough is too dry - add more warm water, if it's too wet - add more flour
Place ya dough ball in an oiled bowl, cover, and rest for 30 minutes
Using a stone? Preheat grill with stone on the grate to high (450°F - 500°F)
Using a pan? Preheat oven to 450°F
Rip off a piece of parchment a little bit bigger than your pizza, lightly oil and sprinkle with cornmeal
Roll out dough using a flour dusted roller or press using your hands into your desired pizza shape (1/2" thick makes the perfect pie)
Decorate with sauce / toppings / cheese
Grill or bake on your stone or in a pan checking every 10 minutes for desired crispiness
EAT YOUR HEART OUT!
Vicious Variations:
Bake this crust in a high sided square cake pan for the BEST Detroit style pizza on the planet. Sorry Jet's and Rocky's - got ya beat here. This recipe makes 2, 8" Detroit style pies.

Any way you slice it, you know you can't deny it.
This is my single favorite record of all time. Cheese is my favorite genre.
