FLOURS NEEDED TO MAKE THE PASTRY FOR THESE GLUTEN FREE PIZZA MUMMY’S
In all of my recipes there are measurements in grams. It is way more accurate. Consequently, you need a kitchen scale to make this recipe and they are very cheap and affordable. There are 3 types of gluten free flours in the blend, with psyllium husk and flax seed for a binder. You must know that there is no advantage in chilling this dough before or after rolling it out.
Sorghum flour
Potato Starch
Buckwheat Flour
