How to make this incredible gluten-free pizza dough:
You’ll start by mixing warm water with the whole psyllium husk. Set it aside and it will form a gel.
Measure out the flour and then whisk in the sugar, instant yeast, and sea salt. Place this in a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer.
Make a well in the flour and add in the psyllium gel, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil. Using a stand mixer, mix on low for 1 minute, then scrape the bottom and the sides to make sure it’s all mixed together and then mix on medium for 3 minutes. To mix by hand, use your hands to mix together the ingredients and then knead the dough for 5-7 minutes.
Prepare the counter top by sprinkling out some of the gluten-free flour onto the surface. Place the dough on the floured countertop and knead for 1 minute. It should be soft and pliable.
Flour a rolling pin and begin rolling out the dough to your desired size. Roll in different directions so the dough spreads out evenly. Lift it up and turn it over if you like or just lift up the sides and sprinkle more flour underneath it. You want it to not be sticking to the counter.
Once it’s the size you want, cover it with a tea towel and let it rest for about 60 minutes. But 40 minutes in you’ll want to preheat your oven to 450°F. And go ahead and place your pizza stone into the oven so that it will heat up too.
Once the 60 minutes is up and your oven is heated, you’re going to carefully remove the hot pizza stone from the oven. Use good thick hot pads to pull it out and to set it on.
Sprinkle the hot stone with some cornmeal and sea salt. This is optional but I think it really adds to a great tasting crust.
Carefully pick up the crust and lay it on the stone, making sure not to touch the stone. Take about 1 tablespoon of olive oil and using a pastry brush spread it all over the crust and the edges. Next, take a fork and poke the crust several times all over. This will keep the crust from bubbling up.
Now, place it into the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes.
Again carefully remove it from the oven and top with your choice of sauce, cheese, and toppings. Reduce the oven temperature to 425°F and bake for 10-12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it sit for 3-5 minutes before slicing.
