A gluten-free pizza crust doesn’t have to be made with only flour. In today’s world, a healthy approach to making pizza is adding vegetables to the crust. In this recipe I used butternut squash, adding valuable nutrients and fibre. My favourite toppings are spicy Italian Sausage, fresh tomatoes, onions, bell pepper, and cheddar cheese, all of which compliment this amazing butternut squash pizza crust. This pizza crust can hold plenty of toppings, feel free to choose your favourites
