Authentic Paleo Pizza

This Paleo pizza crust tastes just like the real thing, but is made without gluten, grains, or dairy. It’s the perfect primal canvas for all your favorite toppings!

I love love love this recipe for Paleo pizza so much that I decided to create a how-to video of Becky’s recipe, which I’ve included just below. I made a few very minor changes to the method and one ingredient (instant yeast instead of active dry yeast), and I topped it with my homemade tomato sauce, pepperoni, and my new favorite recipe for meltable vegan mozzarella by Miyoko Schinner.

This crust quickly became a family favorite, and if you read the reader comments, you’ll see my family is not alone in the 💓. Of course, if you’re looking for a traditional gluten free pizza dough, we’ve got that too—including a yeast-free gluten free pizza dough that is absolutely amazing when you’re pressed for time!

INGREDIENTS
⅓ cup (2 2/3 fluid ounces) warm water

3 tablespoons (42 g) extra virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing

1 tablespoon (21 g) honey

2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (or 1 3/4 teaspoons instant yeast)

1 egg (50 g, weighed out of shell) at room temperature, beaten

½ teaspoon kosher salt, plus a pinch for sprinkling

1¾ cups (210 g) tapioca starch/flour, divided, plus more for dusting

1 cup (120 g) almond flour, plus more as needed

Pizza toppings, as desired

DIRECTIONS

1. In a large bowl, place the warm water, olive oil, and honey and whisk to combine well. Sprinkle the yeast on top and let it sit for about 5 minutes, until foamy. Whisk in the egg. Add the salt and 1½ cups (180 g) of the tapioca flour and whisk until a smooth, sticky batter forms. Switch to a spatula or wooden spoon and stir in the almond flour, and then stir in the remaining tapioca flour. The dough should appear shaggy.
2. Dust your hands with a little tapioca flour and press the dough into a ball, kneading it a bit to get any floury bits mixed in. If it’s too sticky to come together, add additional almond flour a tablespoons at a time. Return the ball of dough to the bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and set it in a warm place for 45 minutes (I usually set my oven to 200°F just for a couple minutes, then turn it off. I then place the bowl of dough in the oven, which is just a little above room temperature). The dough won’t double in size, but will get noticeably bigger. Place a pizza stone or large, overturned rimmed baking sheet in the oven and preheat to 375°F.
