Pizza is delicious but it's far from being the healthiest option (too much fat and empty carbs) and can even be relatively expensive. That is until now! This pizza scrolls recipe is not only gluten free but uses reduced fat / fat free ingredients and packs a little extra protein and fiber as well. Enjoy this tasty and affordable homemade pizza scroll recipe sans gluten and without all that fat:
Ingredients
- 4 teaspoon active dried yeast
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1 cup skim milk
- 1 cup rice flour plus extra for dusting
- 1 cup potato flour
- 1 teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
- 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 1 tablespoon of salt to taste
- 1 teaspoon Chia Seeds
- 1 teaspoon ground flaxseed
- 1 tablespoon sunflower oil
- 1 egg, beaten
Filling Ingredients
- 4 tablespoon finely chopped tomatoes or tomato sauce
- 1 cup fat free shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup fat free cheddar cheese
- 3 oz thin sliced reduced fat ham (optional for vegetarians)
- 1 teaspoon chopped basil
Instructions
Place the yeast, sugar and skim milk in a bowl and set aside for about 10 minutes, until frothy. In a large bowl, stir together the flours, baking powder, xanthan gum and the salt. Mix the oil and egg into the yeast mixture and pour this into the flour mixture, using a fork to bring the mixture together. Tip it out onto a surface dusted lightly with rice flour and knead for 5 minutes, adding a little flour if the mixture becomes sticky. Place in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for about 40 minutes, or until well risen. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. On the floured surface, roll the dough out to a rectangle approximately 12×10 inches, spread with the crushed tomatoes, then sprinkle over the other toppings. Roll the pizza up from one long edge, then slice into eight pieces. Place the rolled-up scrolls, side by side, on a lightly oiled heavy baking sheet. They should be pushed up against each other so the sides are touching. Place in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until golden, then enjoy this gluten free reduced fat protein packed pizza scrolls recipe as part of your healthy diet plan!
I hope you enjoyed this free healthier recipe for reduced fat protein-packed gluten free pizza scrolls on a lean budget.
