Gluten free pizzas and bases from the supermarkets are apt to be a bit like cardboard but this recipe makes a nice soft base, more like the real thing. I hope you like it.
I just used my Aunty Lil’s Tomato and chilli pasta sauce as a topping with grated sheep’s cheese on top. But you can use your own inspired ideas for toppings. This is a small pizza as it was an experiment when making some rolls using the same recipe. So, double up the quantities to make a large pizza
