You all know how much I love making homemade pizza! I’ve experimented with so many different crusts - always trying to find a healthier, but tasty option.
Though the crust is gluten-free, it’s thick and fluffy in texture! For those with nut allergies, you’ll be happy to know that this pizza crust contains no nut flours.

- scotty’s pizza crust mix
- 3/4 cup water
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

- Meanwhile, prepare pizza crust according to scotty's everyday package instructions
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan over medium-low heat and add garlic and leeks and stir.
- Add in milk- I used plain almond milk but any milk works- and cornstarch, whisking together so it becomes slightly thick.
