My first go at gluten free

[tkmcmichael]

My wife has been avoiding gluten and so we made our first gluten free pizzas last night. I used the same work flow as our normal pizza and it didn’t turn out quite right. I will need to do some more research on it.

Used KA Gluten free flour
62% water
3% salt
.2% IDY

Bring all ingredients together in kitchen aid and then hand knead for a few. I know you don’t develop gluten but it didn’t feel right to not knead the dough. I then balled and let cf for 18 hours and brought out of fridge about 2 hours before baking. Cooked them in the Ardore at 800* floor temp.

Dough came out very much like pie crust and didn’t rise at all. I think I will need to significant up the water.

Here are the two pics I took of it.

My girlfriend and her daughter say that this DS is the best GF pizza that they have had. Most sold at chains are like you mentioned, pie crust-like, thin, and too crisp.

This could probably pass as a regular DS:

I follow this to make the GF NP.

The downside to the Caputo gluten free flour is that corn starch is one of the main ingredients and corn is something she needs to avoid as well.

In searching the forum I noticed your Detroit style and I may have to try that next time. Thanks Hans

Going to try this gluten free pizza crust for my wife. Anyone have any experience with this?

Here is one of the pizza we made with the dough. I cut it in half Ave made two smaller pizzas rather than one large pizza. This is a olive oil, pistachios, rosemary, mozzarella, and prosciutto. I also made a sausage pizza that I didn’t take any pictures of. My wife liked it better than any were have made from scratch. We will try out next time in the pizza party ardore next time we use it.

There's a very good thread on GF Detroit style at:  https://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php?topic=64506.0

I used the same dough recipe to make a round NY style.  I press out the dough on parchment and par bake for 5 minutes; top it; bake another 5-6 minutes at 500F.
