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

Ingredients

1-1/2 cups almond flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 large egg
1 tablespoon grapeseed or olive oil
1/4 pound Italian turkey sausage links, casings removed
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 cup pizza sauce
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup julienned roasted sweet red peppers
1/4 cup sliced ripe olives
1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
17 slices turkey pepperoni

Directions

In a small bowl, mix the almond flour, salt and baking soda. In another bowl, whisk egg and oil; stir into dry ingredients. Press onto a 12-in. pizza pan coated with cooking spray; build up edges slightly. Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until edges are lightly browned.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook and stir sausage and onion over medium heat for 4-6 minutes or until sausage is no longer pink. Spread pizza sauce over crust; sprinkle with garlic. Top with the sausage mixture, red peppers, olives, cheese and pepperoni. Bake 18-20 minutes longer or until cheese is melted.

This is the worse Pizza dough I have ever made. I would never recommend this to anyone.

Crust fell apart while eating it. We like crispy thin crusts. Good flavor. I made it on a pizza stone and not a metal pizza pan. Would that make a difference?

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!
