- Prep Time:
- 10 min
- Cooking Time:
- 45 min
- Serves:
- 6 - 8 pc
Ingredients
1 lb. lean ground beef
1 small onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced or grated
1 red or orange bell pepper, roughly chopped
1 cup sliced mushrooms
2 oz. thinly sliced pepperoni
1 cup (136 g) gluten-free all-purpose flour blend (I used this GF flour)
2 tsp. Ground flaxseed
1/2 tsp. GF baking powder
1/2 tsp. GF dried oregano
1/2 tsp. Sea salt
2 large eggs
3/4 cup milk
2 tsp. Extra virgin olive oil plus some for brushing
1 cup pure tomato sauce
1 Tbsp. GF mustard
1 tsp. GF dried basil
1 1/2 - 2 cups cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 F Line a 9 x 13-inch pan with parchment paper and brush with olive oil
- Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, onions and garlic and cook, breaking up the meat until the meat is lightly browned. This takes about 8 minutes. Stir in bell peppers, mushrooms, pepperoni and cook for one more minute. Remove the skillet from the stove
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, flaxseed, baking powder, oregano, salt, eggs, milk and olive oil
- Pour batter into prepared pan and scatter the meat mixture evenly over the top. Bake for 20 minutes
- In the meantime, mix tomato sauce with mustard and 1 teaspoon of basil
- After 20 minutes, remove the pizza from the oven, spoon the sauce mixture over the meat and sprinkle with cheese. Return the pizza into the oven and bake for 15 - 20 minutes longer, until the cheese is bubbling and has a golden colour
- Cut into squares or triangles and enjoy!

LOVE this pizza dough, I made it for my family last night and it was the easiest gluten-free pizza I have ever made. I used different toppings, pretty much leftovers in my fridge. What a great way to feed your family with this budget friendly pizza. And they ALL loved it! Thank you, your recipes made my life so much easier :-)
thank you Nancy, I am always here to help if you need it.

I made this tonight for dinner and OMG - it was so good ! I added more Mushrooms instead of peperoni. We will make it again :-)
sounds delicious!

I have this on this week's menu rotation! So excited to try it. What does the flaxseed do for the batter? I added some to my grocery pickup but it was out of stock Will it still work if I omit?
the flaxseed is there for fiber and nutrition. It will still work without it, enjoy!

this pizza was a huge hit at our house and has become our Friday night treat.

I am allergic to tomatoes. Would this pizza work without the tomato sauce?
Terry, you can use a white sauce like the one we used in White Spinach Lasagna

Made this today as dairy free using Violife mozz and cheddar and turned out pretty good. Crust did not get crispy but could be the dairy free milk. Crisped it up by pan frying for a few minutes. Since got a very picky child w/ celiac (and dairy free) to eat a pizza I'm happy!
yes Kathy, milk has natural fats which crisp up the crust. Thank you for sharing, good to know.
