Going gluten free and not being able to grab a pizza slice is honestly TORTURE. Since I’ve cut gluten out I’ve always been on the hunt for pizza shops, pizza crust, pizza toppings… basically anything to replace the piece in my heart for real, true, hearty pizza. Growing up in Connecticut, close to New Haven and NY we have some of the worlds BEST pizza (in my opinion). I’ve been able to find my favorite pizza spot in Stamford (Colony Grill) that has BANGIN gluten free pies. When I’m craving something with more fresh ingredients I like to create my own.
This recipe I used Against The Grain pizza crust. Depending on how you like your crust, this went PERFECT with the figs and arugula. The crust actually has a croissant texture and taste to it. Its delicious and a different spin on the regular crust. Try it out!
