Gluten-Free Buckwheat Flour Pizza Crust

Friday night we have the tradition of making homemade pizza.  And last night was no different!  Two of our good friends from out of the country stayed the night at our house, so we decided to include them in our pizza-making shenanigans.

I love making my own pizza because I can put exactly what I want on top and know what’s going into the sauce and crust.  It’s also a fun activity to do as a couple or with friends, and everyone gets what they want!

I’ve been working on this crust recipe for awhile and been making it for several weeks now with much success!  It is denser than a traditional “pizzeria” pizza crust but the whole grains give a rich base for your favorite toppings!  It’s gluten-free, egg-free, nut-free, and vegan!  Hope you like it!

 
 
I love this sauce recipe!  I can literally eat it plain.  It’s a great way to use extra tomatoes and herbs from the summer garden yield.  Make extra and freeze or can for the future!
