It’s hard not to like pizza, am I right? Seriously, you can throw almost any combination of toppings onto a waiting dough and get a custom-made and delicious meal – who wouldn’t want a slice?
Whether you’re gluten-free or not, there is so much to love when it comes to making (and eating) a pie with a paleo pizza crust base.
Since paleo crusts eliminate dairy, gluten, and refined sugar, that means you’re creating a pizza crust without inflammatory properties. That awful, bloated feeling you used to get after eating all that delicious pizza of the past? Gone. But the flavor? Still there.
With so many options, it’s easy to make a healthier version of everyone’s favorite dish: pizza!
Check out our ultimate list of the best paleo pizza crusts, which features varieties made with everything from coconut flour, to broccoli, to eggplant, and cassava flour.
