Gluten/Casein Free Pizza

Due to my intolerance to tapioca, I cannot eat any of the pre-made pizza crust mixes (that I've found). However, I have found Bisquick's gluten free mix to be very versatile, and through numerous attempts, the following pizza recipe is the best one that I have made with it.


Ingredients:
1 1/3 cups gluten free bisquick
1 tsp italian seasoning
1/2 cup water
1/6 cup of olive oil
1/3 cup egg substitute or egg whites
Toppings of your choice


Mix everything together and it should look like thick sticky cookie dough. Pre-heat the oven to 425ยบ and grease a cookie sheet or pizza pan. Spread the dough out to about a 1/8" to 1/4"- I find it helps if I spray my hands with cooking spray (make sure the spray does not contain milk if you are dairy free), pinch up the sides to give it a crust, or just spread it out flat if you want just a thin crust type pizza. 

 Bake just the crust for about 15 min, the crust make come out looking cracked, as shown on the left.










Once it has finished baking, take it out and decorate it as you wish. I like to put the toppings under the cheese. 










The cheese in the picture below is "Tofutti" Mozzarella (it is very smelly when it cooks). I have found that Follow Your Heart Natural Foods - "Vegan Gourmet Mozzarella" is quite good although it can get kind of soupy when it's hot out of the oven, but it does melt and is not smelly.
