INGREDIENTS

For the Pizza Dough

2 cups (about 260 g) Aarog Daily Lift Flour Blend
1¼ cups (300 ml) warm water (not hot)
2 tsp instant yeast
1 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp olive oil
1½ tsp apple cider vinegar
1 tsp salt

For assembling & toppings

1 tbsp olive oil, for brushing the crust
100-150 g tomato sauce or pizza sauce
1 tsp dried oregano
150 g low-moisture mozzarella cheese, sliced or shredded
30 g grated parmesan cheese
fresh basil leaves, for serving (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

Activate the Yeast
In a bowl, mix warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5–8 minutes until foamy.
Mix the Dough
Add DailyLift flour and salt to a large bowl. Pour in the yeast mixture, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar.
Mix with a spoon or spatula until you get a soft, sticky dough.
Rest & Hydrate
Cover and let the dough rest in a warm place for 45–60 minutes.
The dough will hydrate and slightly rise — this step is essential for gluten-free structure.
Shape the Base
Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C).
Place dough on parchment paper. With lightly oiled hands, press the dough outward into a thin pizza base. Do not roll.
Pre-Bake
Bake for 6–8 minutes until the base looks set but pale.
Top & Finish Baking
Add sauce and toppings. Return to oven and bake another 6–7 minutes until edges are lightly crisp.

PRO TIPS

Gluten-free pizza dough should be pressed, not kneaded or rolled
If dough feels stiff, wet your hands and gently smooth the surface
Vinegar improves softness and crumb structure without affecting taste
For extra crispness, bake on a preheated tray or pizza stone

NUTRITION NOTE

DailyLift is a pre-balanced blend designed to hydrate evenly and support yeast fermentation without added binders or starches. This allows for a lighter, more flexible gluten-free pizza base using a single everyday flour.
