Paleo pizza that has been cut and is ready to serve.

I've been testing various pizza crust recipes on my family for years. But it wasn't until recently that I decided to get serious about creating a gluten free, dairy free pizza crust for the blog.

Honestly, I'm not the biggest pizza person. I know, I know...it's basically a crime not to love pizza! But I'm pretty sure my lack of pizza love is made up for ten fold by my husband.

Anyway, this grain free almond flour pizza crust definitely won me and my family over. They all said it's the best paleo pizza crust!

arrowroot starch - or swap for tapioca starch

dried oregano - optional seasoning
dried thyme - optional seasoning

How to Make a Grain Free Almond Flour Pizza Crust

You'll need a large mixing bowl, parchment paper, baking sheet and your favorite pizza toppings to make this pizza. Here are the steps:

First, preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients. This includes: almond flour, arrowroot starch, baking soda, spices and salt. Whisk the dry ingredients until they are well mixed.
Next, add in the yogurt. Use a spatula to stir the dough until it is in large clumps. Then, knead the dough with your hands.
Form the dough into a ball and dust with more arrowroot. Press the ball of dough onto a sheet of parchment paper. Add another sheet of parchment paper on top of the dough and use a rolling pan to roll the dough into a large circle/oval. The crust will be about ¼ inch thick.

Once rolled out, add paleo pizza sauce and toppings.
Transfer the pizza (on the parchment paper) to a baking sheet ( and bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. Once done, the crust should be crisp on the bottom, but soft on top. The crust cuts easily and holds together well - which is super important when you like to add lots of toppings 😉

Storage

Store leftover pizza in an airtight container in the fridge, up to 5 days.
