Pizza bases

In the 15 months since my husband was diagnosed with coeliac disease we have struggled to find a pizza base that wouldn't crumble when cooked and had an acceptable texture. Our search ended when we found the perfect bases at the best gluten free bakery in Melbourne - Moorabbin to be exact. But more on that bakery in a future blog post.

These 11 inch discs of goodness are located in the freezer section of the bakery and come in a pack of 3 for $15. 

For those of you who are also required to eat dairy free, egg free, soy free, wheat free or fructose friendly you'll be glad to know these bases will fit the bill perfectly. 


We usually cook two bases at a time and find that sufficient for the two of us and my 13 year old step-son. 


Just place your favourite toppings on top and bake for 15 minutes in a preheated 180 degree oven. 




When we are unable to get to Moorabbin, a very close second runner up is the Old Time Bakery gluten free pizza base. I usually buy these from my local IGA supermarket and they can be found in the aisle with the wraps. These bases come in a pack of two and are quite thin. They don't crumble when cooked which I find a huge bonus.
