ingredients

  • 600g (4 cups) Entice Pizza Mix
  • 300g (300ml) Water or Soda Water
  • 2 XL Eggs
  • 45 ml (3Tbs) Olive Oil
  • 15ml (1Tbs) Honey (optional)
  • 1 Sachet yeast
  • 30ml (2Tbs) Entice Baking Powder (Gluten-Free)

This crusty bread just works well.  I use soda water to assist in the raising of the dough to make it less dense.  It slices well, spreads well, and tastes great.  Aside from the proving time and the baking time, its quick and easy.  The dough that is formed is soft and easy to work with.

Methods

  • Pre-heat the oven to 180°C to reach temperature when you need to bake.
  • Blend the powder yeast and baking powder to the dry Pizza Mix
  • Mix the oil, eggs and water, add to the dry ingredients and combine to form a soft dough.
  • Place onto a floured board (use Entice Crusty bread Mix to flour) and gently form into a round shape.
  • Pour some olive oil into your hand and work over the surface of the loaf.
  • Place onto an oiled baking sheet. Leave to prove for 30 to 60 minutes in a warm area.  I use the oven warmer.
  • Once risen, gently egg wash the loaf.
  • Place into oven at 180°C and bake  30 – 40 minutes, you want the internal temperature of the loaf to reach about 92°C
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Can be sliced while warm.

Uses

Add yeast, oil and water to this pizza base mix for a thin crust, thick crust pizza base or delicious focaccia.

Quick facts

  • Ingredients: Rice Flour, Chickpea Flour, Sugar, Salt, Xanthan Gum
  • 600g makes 4 bases (30cm)
  • Add olive oil, sachet of yeast and warm water to mix into a dough, divide into 4 equal parts.
  • Roll directly onto the baking sheet because you cannot move the thin base, unless you have a pizza shovel.
  • Top as desired and bake.

These are my Favourite Toppings:

  • I always use tomato paste, shredded basil or fresh oregano and mozzarella.
  • Anchovies and Olives
  • Pancetta and Fresh tomatoes, with Rocket added after baking
  • Focaccia with Himalayan Rock Salt, freshly ground Pepper and Freshly chopped Rosemary, and lots of olive oil.

Goats Cheese (as well as Mozzarella), and caramelised onions. Capers optional
