Ingredients
  

  • 2 ⅔ cups Caputo Fioreglut gluten-free flour
  • 1 cup + 2 tablespoons warm water room temperature, not hot
  • ½ teaspoon instant dry yeast
  • 1 ¾ teaspoons fine salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil extra-virgin preferred
  • 2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup optional, helps browning and flavor

Equipment

  • Digital kitchen scale
  • Mixing bowl or stand mixer with paddle
  • Dough scraper
  • Parchment paper squares (oiled)
  • Pizza stone or steel
  • Oven thermometer or infrared thermometer
  • Cling film or towel (for covering dough)
  • Peel or baking tray for oven transfer

Method
 

  1. Activate yeast: In a small cup, mix yeast, honey, and 50 g of the water. Let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
  2. Combine dry: In a large bowl, whisk Caputo Fioreglut flour with salt.
  3. Hydrate: Pour the activated yeast and remaining water into the flour. Mix vigorously for 2–3 minutes using a spoon or paddle attachment. The mixture should resemble thick pancake batter.
  4. Add oil: Drizzle in olive oil and mix for another minute until dough becomes smooth and shiny.
  5. First rise: Cover the bowl with cling film or towel. Let the dough ferment at room temp (24–25°C) for 1 hour, or refrigerate for up to 8 hours for more flavor.
  6. Divide & rest: Lightly oil your counter and divide the dough into two equal portions. Set each on oiled parchment. Let rest covered for 30 minutes.
  7. Shape: With wet fingers, press each dough into a 25 cm (10-inch) round, leaving a raised edge.
  8. Top lightly: Use no more than 60 g of sauce and minimal cheese to avoid sogginess.
  9. Bake: Preheat your pizza stone at 260°C (500°F) for at least 45 minutes. Bake each pizza for 4–5 minutes or until crust blisters and cheese bubbles.
  10. Serve: Let cool for 2 minutes, then slice and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use oiled parchment and wet hands when shaping the dough—it’s sticky but forgiving.
  • For best flavor, cold ferment the dough overnight.
  • Don’t overload with sauce or toppings; gluten-free doughs are delicate.
  • This dough works best at high heat (500°F / 260°C+).
