Ingredients:
For the Gluten-Free Pizza Dough:
- 2 cups Schar Gluten-Free Pizza Flour
- 1 cup warm water (around 110°F)
- 1 packet instant yeast (approximately 2 1/4 teaspoons)
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
For the Toppings:
- 1 cup hummus (homemade or store-bought, check for gluten-free)
- 1 cup cooked chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
- 1/2 cup artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
- 1/2 cup roasted red peppers, sliced
- 1/2 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
- 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
- Extra virgin olive oil for drizzling
- Fresh lemon zest for finishing touch
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Allow it to sit for a few minutes until the yeast is activated and frothy.
- Add Schar Gluten-Free Pizza Flour, salt, and olive oil to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough starts to form. Knead the dough for a few minutes, then let it rise, covered, in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, put it in the oven to warm.
- Roll out the pizza dough on a sheet of parchment paper into your desired shape.
- Spread hummus evenly as the base layer on the dough.
- Scatter cooked chickpeas, artichoke hearts, roasted red peppers, and Kalamata olives over the hummus.
- Sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese and dried oregano.
- Drizzle with a little olive oil, then transfer the parchment paper and pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or directly onto a baking tray.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and the toppings are heated through.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and lemon zest after removing from the oven.
- Let cool slightly before slicing. Serve and enjoy your Gluten-Free Mediterranean Chickpea Pizza.
