Select Foods Gluten Free Pizza Dough

On the Valentines Day weekend I tried the Select Foods Gluten Free Pizza Dough. My Mum and I were babysitting my little friend Siobhan (8) who has become a little Sister to me since the day we met many years ago. Siobhan loves sleeping overnight at my house and we bake gluten free cakes and bread together. She is on a cancer-fighting diet due to a tumour which is now in remission and enjoys our experiments with gluten free flours and is quite the little help with mixing and pouring.

It was the first time I had made Rice Flour pancakes for breakfast. She normally enjoys the Buckwheat pancake mix from a packet but I decided to try the recipe from the Mckenzie Rice Flour information page this time, which she loved. "Dee-licious", she declared!

For lunch we made a pizza with the Select Foods Gluten Free Pizza Dough, some home made bolognaise sauce, pineapple pieces and a sprinkling of grated cheese. As it was cooking it smelled divine and after half an hour we checked to see whether the crust had cooked properly. Normally I cook pizza on a thin metal tray but I had forgotten to take one to my Mum's. Instead we used a thick ceramic baking dish which may have affected cooking time, stretching it out past the 20-25 minutes on the packet instructions. After 35 minutes we decided to try the pizza and whilst it was nice I do think the next attempt will be even better. The taste of the dough was quite pleasant but not as nice as that from Pizza World in Warilla.
