My husband can't eat pizza with gluten or sugar in the crust. Because that leaves out boxed mixes and frozen pizzas, I decided to make my own. — Angela Sage, Waxhaw, North Carolina

Did not turn out the way recipe says it does. It was too dry and gritty texture. I even added more egg and olive oil.

My sister and I both have Gluten and wheat sensitivities. Recipes that fit this category are very hard to find. This Thin-Crust Gluten-Free Pepperoni Pizza can easily be adapted into a wheat-free recipe as well. Thank you very much for this recipe. It is a keeper!
