Description

Did you know you can make a pizza crust out of quinoa flour? It’s true! Whether you’re looking for a gluten free crust recipe or you just want to find a new way to use quinoa flour, this is a unique recipe to try!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups quinoa flour
  • 1/4 cup of oat flour* or gluten-free flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian spices (I use a blend of oregano, garlic, and crushed red pepper)
  • 1/2 cup warm water (you might need up to 2/3 cup of water but start small!)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Toppings of your choice

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees
  2. Combine the quinoa flour and oat flour, then add in salt and spices.
  3. Add warm water and olive oil.
  4. Your mixture will be a little lumpy, and you may need to use your hands to mix it all.
  5. Spray a baking sheet or pizza stone with olive oil (or just coat it with a paper towel dipped in olive oil) and bake at 375 for about 10 minutes, or until the edges start to brown.
  6. Add toppings and put it back into the oven until your toppings are cooked!

Notes

I didn’t have oat flour, per say, but I tossed about 1/3 cup rolled oats into my food processor until they turned to flour.
