Ingredients

Dough

  • 1 1/2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum omit if your flour blend contains it
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Filling

  • 1/3 cup pizza sauce
  • 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped pepperoni or any topping of choice
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

For Brushing

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour, xanthan gum (if using), baking powder, and salt.
  • Add warm water, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar. Mix until a dough forms.
  • Roll the dough between two sheets of parchment paper into a 10x12-inch rectangle.
  • Spread pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
  • Sprinkle mozzarella, pepperoni, basil, and garlic powder on top.
  • Carefully roll the dough into a log (like cinnamon rolls), using the parchment to help lift the edges.
  • Slice into 8 rolls and place on the baking sheet.
  • Brush the tops with olive oil and sprinkle with dried oregano.
  • Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden and bubbly.
  • Let cool slightly before serving. Serve with extra pizza sauce for dipping, if desired.

Notes

  • Gluten-free dough can be delicate. Roll it between two sheets of parchment paper, and if it cracks, pinch it back together gently.
  • If you have a favorite gluten-free dough you want to use, roll it out and follow the same filling and baking steps.
  • Don’t overfill the dough, and make sure to leave a clean border when spreading the sauce and toppings. Roll tightly but gently.
