*This recipe makes one 12 inch pizza crust

2-1/2 cup rice flour
1/4 ounce gluten-free quick-rise yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
3 tablespoon olive oil
1-1/2 cup warm water; divided (120-130 degrees)
1 tablespoon honey
2 tsp. dried basil
1 clove minced garlic

Cornmeal

Directions:
Combine flour, yeast, salt and xanthan gum in large bowl. Stir in 1 cup water, olive oil and honey.

Use hands to work dough (dough will be soft and crumbly). Add just enough of the remaining 1/4 cup water to hold mixture together. Knead dough in bowl 5 minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes.

Lightly grease 12-inch pizza pan; sprinkle with cornmeal. Flatten dough into round disk; press dough into pan, using cornmeal on the hands to prevent sticking.Â Top with your favorite toppings and bake at 425 degrees 25 minutes or until crust and cheese is golden brown.
